YEAR END SERVICE 2008, WELCOME 2009!!!

 

  

On Wednesday night, December 31, 2008, saints, friends, and visitors gathered together in praise, worship and fellowship to celebrate all that the Lord had done in the year 2008, and in anticipation of what He will do in the year 2009.  There was no better place to be than in the House of the Lord at this place and at this time.

The Lord truly met us in the service and praises went up to Him in various forms and ministries.  Jubilee songs were sung, songs of praise were administered through the primary class, New Generation Youth Choir, Progressive Gospel Choir, and through a solo.  Song and dance was rendered through the drama and dance ministry by which everyone was extremely blessed and ministered to.  An original poem was recited by Bro. Berry and recitations were given by the Junior Sunday School Class.

Pastor Deas invited all of the youth members and youth visitors to come before the church so that all could see the potential the church could have through the youth.  He charged the youth to get Christ in their lives and give themselves over to Him, and to get involved in the church.  He urged them to bug their parents to get them to church so that they could be in the services.

The Word of the Lord was expounded over and over again through exhortation from the Lord through all of the ministers, aspiring ministers and one of the deacons; they were:  Aspiring Ministers Alan Murray and La’Monte Jackson, Elders Elect Tarryl McIntyre, Steve Sweet and Matthew Pinkney, and Deacon Al Alford. We were all exhorted to lay aside our old habits and ways, and continue in the ways of the Lord, and to not make new resolutions that we will not keep, but that our resolve should be to be faithful, live a holy life and to serve the Lord with everything we have got during the New Year, and that we will need the Holy Spirit in our lives to accomplish this goal.

 

The service ended with prayer and exhortation from Pastor Deas.  After the service everyone greeted each other with embraces and kisses.  The Lord was praised in this place on this night!!! To Him be all the glory, praise and honor, forever and ever, Amen!
