Happy Valentine's Day, Bereavements, Prayer & Fasting during Lent (Pastoral Emphasis for 2/14)

Happy Valentine's Day. Whether you are married, dating someone (all boo'd up), single, I want you to know that God loves you! That's not a cliché because God demonstrated His love by sending His Son, Jesus to die for your sins! No greater love is there than for someone to die for another


Bereavement: Our former saxophone player, Bro. Isaac Stubbs passed away last week from massive stroke.  Please be in prayer for his wife and family. Also, Elder Bullock recently lost an uncle and Elder and Sis. Cherry lost a niece.  Pray for all of them during this time of bereavement.

Join us again this Wednesday at 7:00pm for our Bible Study series, "The Promised One: Seeing Jesus in Genesis". This week, we'll look at Genesis 16-24 to see Jesus in the life of Abraham and Isaac.

We are now in the season of Lent (40 days of prayer & fasting not including Sundays). We are doing a church-wide fast. You can decide to do a total fast of all foods or a partial fast of a particular food or activity. Also, here are some things to pray about: your spiritual life (confess & repent of sin, abiding in Christ & bearing fruit), My Hope Sunday (boldness to invite people, salvation).

My Hope Sunday is 3/20. We are asking members to commit to inviting at least one unbeliever/unchurched person to attend church with you. Bring in your commitment cards. Deacon Rufus Credle shared his testimony about his hope in Jesus when he faced cancer.

There will be an intercessory prayer training on Saturday, February 20th, from 9:00am to 11:00am in the MPR. This training is for the Intercessory & Prayer team and anyone else who is interested in learning more about the ministry of intercessory prayer. Please register for the training online.

Due to multiple activities scheduled for Saturday, March 19th, the date for the Spring Spruce UP has been changed to Saturday, April 2nd, 9am to 12pm. Update your calendar and come out to help up keep the Lord's house clean. EVERYONE is invited.
