Through the month of August our focus in worship will be prayer, specifically, the Prayer for Antioch.
We have been offering this prayer each Sunday for several months now and God has been responding to the faithfulness
of His people. Our summer has indeed been a very blessed one with more activities and opportunities for worship and
service than most of us could keep up with. There will always be things we need to work on to improve and make better.

Today we have approximately $20,000.00. In four months we have spent approximately eight thousand dollars of our reserve. If we continue this trend we will soon be operating on week to week, cash ...<< MORE >>

The late Southern Baptist layman and Christian comedian Jerry Clower was telling the story about his passion for witnessing to people and telling them of God’s grace.
