Happy Sabbath and welcome to the house of Prayer for all peoples.
Welcome to our visiting friends, who are our special guests, and welcome to the faithful members. Thank you for choosing to worship with us today.
We want to use our time wisely. Personally, I encourage you to spend quality time in prayer, the reading of the Bible, the Sabbath school lesson study and your devotional life.
We have to be intentional and creative in sharing our faith, talking about Jesus, inviting persons to follow Christ and attend church services with us. Let’s share how good God has been to us with two persons or families.

If you or someone that you know would like to be baptized, please inform your Pastor or one of the Elders as we plan for monthly baptisms. The next baptism date is June 24. For those who have not received a baptismal certificate, please contact your Church Clerk. Congratulations to all who were baptized on this past Sabbath and those who will be baptized today.
The Sabbath School Lesson study #10, Jesus says, . . “Thy word is truth.” We need, then, to become familiar with the Word of God, to study and to practice it in life. We deny Jesus Christ as the One who taketh away the sins of the world if we do not, after accepting the truth, reveal to the world the sanctifying effects of the truth on our own characters. If we are not better men and women, if we are not more kindhearted, more pitiful, more courteous, more full of tenderness and love, if we do not manifest to others the love that led Jesus to the world on His mission of mercy, we are not witnesses to the world of the power of Jesus Christ. Memory Text: “John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (KJV). May the lesson review be a blessing. If you don’t have a lesson quarterly, please download the lessons to your devices.
There is a constant need to pray for our families. The enemy is real and there is a need for total submission to Christ. We can and must overcome it.
There are a number of persons who are physically challenged, sick, bereaved and experiencing difficulties. We must be mindful, aware and able to offer relevant help in their time of need.
Small group ministry enhances care and friendship in the body and in the community. Groups of twos and threes should be formed in each unit for regular visitation. A board vote is not required.
Evangelism should be integrated in ALL church programs and activities. Let’s share Christ today.
You are encouraged to read the Bible thru and be faithful to God. Return a faithful tithe and freewill offering and watch God bless you more than you can receive.
Any person wanting to assist and share their talents with the church is asked to contact the Pastor or Elders. We want you to share your talents with God’s people.
Your Church is delighted to worship with you and your family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, classmates, for any special occasion God blesses you with. Please let us know so that we can rejoice with you.
