Prayer & Bereavement, Virtual Prayer Rally, Back to School Prayer (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/15)

We have much to pray for as many of our members are experiencing difficulties and bereavement. 
  • Pray for Sis. Annie Brice who is in the hospital 
  • Pray for Bernard Clark on the loss of his great aunt which is former member, Sis. Regina Jarmon's mother 
  • Pray for Minister Jackie Harrison and family who recently lost her nephew 
  • Pray for Bro. Britt Norton whose wife, Sis. Norma, and mother-in-law passed last week. Bro. Britt gave me permission to share that his wife and mother-in-law died from COVID. Although Bro. Britt had gotten vaccinated, they decided not to. Bro. Britt wants to encourage everyone to consider getting vaccinated if not for yourself, for your family and friends. It's those you leave behind that are impacted. 

Our next Virtual Prayer Rally will be on Tuesday, August 17th, at 7:00 pm. If you cannot attend, please submit your prayer request online on our Prayer Request Form . 

September’s Foundation Fellowship will be on the Doctrine of Election. The book that I'll be coming from is Chosen by God by R.C. Sproul. I highly recommend this book for your library. 


Today, we had our Back to School Prayer.




Parents and grandparents anointed their children with oil and I lead everyone in prayer for protection (especially from COVID), wisdom and learning, discipline for their studies, patience for parents and guardians, teachers, administrators, bus drivers, staff, and finally, faith in Christ for our children.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...
