Jesus Name Greetings!
On Sunday, March 7, Rev. Larry Blackwell taught the sanctuary class on the subject of “Uzziah must die”. What a powerful and relevant lesson encouraging the class to remember that each of us is called to a specific role in the body and it is very important that we abide in that calling. The morning message, “Your Faith is greater than the Famine”, came to us as the first sermon of the Book of Ruth preaching series.
This week has been both exciting and exhausting. We have met with various focus groups each night this week to teach/discuss family and home issues. The audio of each session can be order from Brother Odis Lomax (odislomax@yahoo.com). The media team will hopefully have the session posted online at www.firstpentecost.com as soon as they are web ready. Subjects covered were; what is love, parenting in the 21st century, God’s order for the home, singles and students issues (with Rev. Darrell Sparks, Portland, Oregon), family/personal finance and finding love and companionship again.
Sunday, March 14 is Family Foundations Sunday with very special events happening in both services. The sanctuary class is set to be an Anti-Family Legislation Awareness session. Brother Bruce Wright, FPC Education Director, and I are teaming up to inform the FPC family of real-time efforts, by political and social entities, to erode parental authority.
The evening service is online to be a Family Symposium. We are gearing up to honor diamond (60+ years), golden (50-59 years) and ruby (40-49 years) marriages as well as hear a ‘marriage tip’ from each of them. A couple of other things are planned that I cannot divulge at the time…shhhhhhhhh!
The Lord is so good to us! The new church mortgage balance is just under $30, 200.00! Sister Burns and I are believing the Lord for a “Pay it off Spirit” to fall on the FPC family…Suddenly (get 3/7/2010 PM audio)!
Please invite someone to service with you and…Get Ready…Sunday’s Coming!!!
