Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Welcome, as we celebrate the ministry’s 40th year anniversary, Elder Cynthia and I are very excited about what God is doing in and through the Faith Tabernacle Church family. This year our focus is on “Evangelism” God’s presence and spirit are indeed moving in this ministry through our many classes and services. •Bible Study •Bible Institute Classes •Biblical Counseling •Marriage Dynamics •Discipleship Groups •Seminars •Many other empowering ministries As many of you know our focus last year was “Love”. This was very important because God’s love purifies us and prepares us for being more Christ like. We must be more Christ like in order to Advance the Kingdom. In Joshua 3:5 Joshua told the people, "Consecrate (sanctify) yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing (wonders) things among you." NIV God is looking for people that have a heart for Him; that He may empower us to withstand during difficult times that we are living in today. The economy is down, unemployment is rising, corporations are downsizing and laying off, health care is going up and people are finding it difficult to afford adequate professional services. Many are affected by these conditions. It is in times of difficulty that God’s people should be a beacon of hope to those that are perishing. People need to see an example of God’s grace on our lives as we continue to move forward even in adverse conditions. This is what will draw them to the Lord through us. We welcome you to come and worship with us whenever you are in the area or looking for a safe refuge to grow in the Lord, as we continue to “Advance The Kingdom” 2 Cor 2:14-16 NIV “But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him. For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.” |
