Prayer of Repentance, Church-Wide Prayer Rally, Census 2020 (Pastoral Emphasis for 3/15)

With our theme of Being a House of Prayer, we're having a Pastoral Prayer every Sunday. We'll have a different topic to pray about each month led by an elder. March's prayer topic is "Repentance and Personal Holiness". Today, I read 2 Chronicles 7:12-14 and in light of the Coronavirus Pandemic, we corporately repented and prayed to the Lord for mercy.

We are canceling the lunch cruise that was scheduled for April 25. We plan to reschedule for sometime in August and will let you know as the time approaches. Refunds will be given to those who already paid.

The next Church-Wide Prayer Rally will be held on Tuesday, March 17th, from 7:00pm to 8:00pm. Those who are able to are invited to join us as we seek God in prayer. If you are not able to attend but have prayer requests, you can place them in the prayer requests box on the table at the back of the church or at the altar, use the Connections card, or submit them online.

The Census 2020 is being mailed to homes and assistance to complete the forms is being provided by Evangelist Tayon Dancy, Minister Matt Darby, Sis. Sandra Broadwater, Brother Louis Eldridge, and Sister Beverly Sanders.



As a church body, we are fasting and praying during Lent. This week, 3/16-3/21, we are fasting from a particular food or drink with a prayer focus of obedience to God's Word.

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
