Greetings Brethren,
The journey isn't over yet, but we are on the rise now. As of this Friday, May the 8th, we will see phase II go live. This will have a wonderful effect for us who gather to worship. As you know, gathering to worship our Lord is who we are, and it just isn't the same without everyone here. Even though we have had a lockdown for sometime now though, we have all been in the presence of God, He never leaves us nor forsakes us. Just as He is the Good Shepherd, He has led us back together for corporate worship in larger gatherings. He alone is Worthy, Amen? Below is an excerpt from the
reopening plan, of which we are in phase I until Friday, that gives an outline of what is to come. We are thankful to have you all as brothers and sisters in Christ, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact us by
