September Birthdays & Anniversaries, 2024 Calendar Planning Meeting, Invite Your One (Pastoral Emphasis for 9/3)

Welcome to our newest member who completed New Members Orientation and her membership interview: Sis. Tiffany Bryant 

Happy Birthday to our September babies... 




Happy Anniversary to our September couples...



Our September Senior Birthday Surprise goes to Sis. Daureen Richards!



To all Ministry Directors and Ministries, the 2024 calendar planning meeting is on 9/9 at 9 AM in the MPR. This meeting is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for any ministry that is interested in presenting a program for the 2024 Calendar. At the meeting, we will introduce a change from the old format to a more collaborative process that should hopefully generate events where ministries will work together to meet the goals of the church mission. 

All women are invited for a time of prayer at 8 AM in the Sanctuary on September 10th. 

Don't forget that every second Sunday is Invite Your One Sunday. Many people will come out to church when invited by a friend. So who is your one? And next Sunday is a great one to invite someone because we will be back in the book of Revelation.

Next Sunday, we resume our Revelation Sermon Series, “The Victory of Jesus and His Church”. The book of Revelation has always fascinated people, and in light of all that's going on in the world, it's good for us to understand what God says about the end times. So come out and invite someone to join you.

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 ...
