Senior Saints Living Day, Church-Wide Fast, My Hope Video (Pastoral Emphasis for 2/26)

We welcome Sis. Mwaba Barcelos who recently joined the church on Christian experience.

We thank the ladies of the Sigma Rho Zeta Chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority who joined us for worship today as part of their kick-off for their Finer Womanhood Week.

On Saturday, March 4th, our Care Ministry is hosting a Senior Saints Living Day where there will be speakers, resources, activities, games, and health assessments. We want all of our senior saints to thrive spiritually and physically. Today is the last day to register!

I'm calling for a Church-Wide Fast for Lent. Lent is a time of fasting and prayer from Ash Wednesday to Easter. There are 40 days in Lent (not counting the Sundays). Fasting is the voluntary act of abstaining from something for the purpose of growing in self-discipline. As Christians, we find our security and satisfaction in Christ. Therefore, we can give up something because Christ means more to us than whatever we are giving up. We ask everyone to join us for a church-wide partial fast for Lent. A partial fast is where you choose to abstain from certain foods and drinks instead of complete abstinence. Others may choose to fast from television, Netflix, social media, shopping, hobbies, etc. This will help you free up some time to spend in prayer, study, and reflection.

My Hope Sunday will be March 12. All of our members are asked to commit to inviting at least one unbeliever or unchurched person to join us at church on My Hope Sunday. During that service, we will share the hope we have in Jesus Christ. Next Sunday, please bring the names of those who you will be inviting so we can pray over them. As a part of getting us ready for My Hope Sunday, we'll be showing videos of members sharing their testimonies and statements of hope.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
