Bro. Mark’s message was from Acts 3:1-10.

Peter and John going to the Temple they saw a lame man from birth.  He was carried and laid daily by the gate. As Peter and John passed, the man asked for money. Peter said we don’t have any money for you.  But I’ll give you something else. I command you in the name of Jesus Christ, walk! The man’s feet and ankle bones were healed and strengthened. He stood there a moment and began walking. The man went into the Temple, leaping and praising God.

Jesus healed this man. Do you see the healing power of Jesus in your life or the life of a loved one?  Choose to listen to God.

After welcoming those in attendance and recognizing birthdays from the past week we opened our service singing Majesty! What better way to start a service, with worship to our Majesty, whether it be through song or sermon we strive to focus on the Lord. The children’s message, Call His Name Jesus was from Luke 1:26-38. Bro. Dale used a candy cane to visualize his message to the kids.

Luke Gregg read II Timothy 4:7-8 followed by the Praise team singing Build My Life. Bro. Dale’s message A Worthy Goal: Well Pleasing To Him from II Corinthians 5:9-11, put the focus on how we will be judged, we will receive, we persuade men. Our mission is to accept Christ as our Lord, and share His word so others will be saved and spend eternity in Heaven with Jesus Christ. Don’t store treasures on earth, store them up in Heaven!

Join with us to pray for the lost, the sick, those that have lost loved ones and our community.
