A prayer from the Pastor

Father, You have placed us here to declare your message of Salvation. You have given us a purpose and sealed us for that purpose. Deepen our faith, our capacity to step into your will so that You will be seen in our families, communities and everywhere we go. Lord, shine on us and cause us to shine for you.   Amen.

--Pastor Terry
