Pastor Thomas, Preaching

WEDNESDAY NOON-DAY BIBLE STUDY 

“My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge.”  Hosea 4:6

Quench your thirst for knowledge of the Word of God by attending Wednesday afternoon.

The Word of God will set you free, so discover His truth in the word and enjoy the freedom and peace it brings. John 8:32 "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." Pastor Thomas is the instructor. 

Remember our citizenship is not on earth but in heaven and while on earth we are to represent Christ in everything we do. That is our job to represent Christ to the world and to preach His saving message. By studying His word we will be able to give reasons and to prove, by the Word, to the lost why Christ is our hope. The Word of God will set you free, so discover His truth in the word and enjoy the freedom and peace it brings. John 8:32 "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

 

ALTAR FLOWERS  Remember loved ones with flowers on the altar on Sunday.  It is   simple; just write your name, the date you would like to dedicate the flowers and to whom.  Make checks payable to Grant Memorial AME Church for $50.00.  Betty Parque, Coordinator.
