Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!!!

[01/16/20]   Move from pity to PRAISE! 🎉🎉🎉

That's it. That's the post.

When Sister Singleton speaks, they listen. 🙌🏾🤣

Our 2020 is off to a GREAT start! We hope yours is as well! 🙂

You can’t start a new year without a clear vision, right? Our dynamic youth ministry recently created vision boards for 2020!

May this new decade be filled with endless blessings! Happy New Year, friends! 🥳🥳

We couldn’t let the year end without posting the obligatory ugly sweater photo! We had such a fun time participating in this earlier this month! 😂😂

[12/26/19]   We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and we look forward to seeing you on Sunday!

And the Lord answered me: “Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run time who reads it.” — Habakkuk 2:2 🙂🙂

[12/11/19]   God's plan is bigger than your mistakes. 😁😁😁

We teamed up to feed the homeless and disadvantaged last week! Shout-out to our members Benjamin C. Garcia and Bianca DuBose for their efforts in making this happen!

Can we just get an AMEN for Sister Danielle's hat?! 😂😂

When the sock game is on point! 🤣🤣🤣

[11/14/19]   FACT: "For with God nothing will be impossible." - Luke 1:37 💡💡

Aren't our youth amazing? They showcased their skills in crafts by making a scroll keepsake of The Ten Commandments -- so they'll never forget!

We concluded our relationship series in Bible Study last week. Special shout-out to Mr. and Dr. Trawick for a hilarious portrayal of what NOT to do when it comes to communication. 🤣

[11/04/19]   Is it time to go back to work already? Have a wonderful week, friends! 😁

We closed out Spirit Month with an African extravaganza! May we have our tickets to Wakanda now? 🤣🤣

This month in Bible Study, we’ve been focusing on relationships and love with exercises, games and interactive assignments. Tonight we’ll be concluding this wonderful series. See you there?

[10/29/19]   FOOD FOR THOUGHT: God doesn’t stand at a juncture and point the way: He’s a guide, not a signpost. He walks with us, leading us down paths we never envisioned. All we have to do is walk alongside Him. 💡💡💡

We had so much fun participating in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk once again this year! Check out Sister Annie, a survivor, who is the definition of AMAZING!

[10/25/19]   It’s a good day to have a good day! Happy Friday, friends! 😁😁

It’s the middle of the week, friends! May we all be as calm and unbothered as our little member Brayden! #NoStress 🤣🤣

We celebrated Decade Day in church yesterday! Talk to us, friends! Did we nail it?!

Our beloved Bianca Moon spent her last day in Orlando with members of our Young Adult Ministry before moving to Texas for a wonderful job opportunity! We know that God is with her EVERY step of the way! Godspeed, Moon!

Because there’s not such a thing as too many photos. 🙏🏾📷⛪️🙂

Forgiveness was the lesson in Bible Study last night. Our amazing youth rose to the occasion by participating in a fun activity to share things that they feel they need to forgive themselves on. We love our kids!!

When the church members get the memo!! 😂😂

[10/04/19]   A scripture for you to end your work week with a bang...

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." -- Isaiah 41:10

We tend to agree with Bianca! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[09/26/19]   FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Some of us have allowed fear to prevent us from a blessing. Put your faith over fear.

A Joyful Noise!

Sing, children, sing!!! 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

[09/20/19]   FOOD FOR THOUGHT: When you criticize yourself, you are criticizing God’s creation. You have enough people and circumstances against you; don’t be against yourself. When the negative comes up, do yourself a favor and delete it. Switch over to the right recording.

[09/16/19]   We'll just leave this right here...

"One thing I ask from the LORD, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple." -- Psalm 27:4

Team Bible Study! Let’s goooooooo! 📖 📖

[09/10/19]   Always remember that God “is as close as your skin, and you have only to call on Him for help.” 😁

How's this for a Throwback Thursday post?! Our phenomenal members Lydia and Max are all smiles! Can you believe this was two years ago?! 😁

[09/02/19]   While we know that God has the power to calm ANY storm, it never hurts to be prepared. Here are some tips for the possible hurricane...

• Stay tuned to local radio and TV for warnings, safety announcements or instructions.

• Invest in a portable battery-operated or hand-crank radio.

• Turn off all utilities, including propane tanks.

• Cover all of your home’s windows with storm shutters or 5/8” marine plywood, cut to fit and ready to install. Even duct tape – amazing as it is – doesn’t prevent windows from breaking.

• If it’s safe, move outdoor furniture and grills inside. They can be deadly flying debris.

• If emergency officials haven’t directed you to a public shelter, get your family to the basement, a closet, a small room or a hallway away from windows. The more walls between you and the outside, the better.

• Lean a mattress against the wall of the room you're in.

• Don't open your windows. Keep the wind and rain outside.

• Hand out flashlights. The hurricane will probably disrupt electrical service.

An anointing — just in time for back to school! 📚🍎🙌🏾

Train up a child in the way he should go — and you know the rest. 😁😁

Earlier this month, we helped our amazing member Benjamin C. Garcia at his non-profit's fourth annual Back to School block party! Giving back is what we're all about!

Can we get an Amen?! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” — Isaiah 41:10

Happy Monday! Make it fantastic, friends! 🙂

[07/27/19]   We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! Be blessed! 🙂
