Willie Allen will be introducing: "True Love Project", a video-driven Bible study for students in grades 6 - 12, that provides an in-depth look at what the Bible has to say in regards to sex, purity, & romance. By starting with God's story and ending with sex, God's glory and one's mission, students will explore a number of topics that demonstrate the centrality of the gospel when it comes to defining one's purity. Please sign-up in the Hospitality Welcome Center for this 16-week program!!! The study will begin on Wednesday, March 18 at 7:30 pm, and will continue on Wednesdays until July 1, 2015! Also as a Friendly Reminder: Sunday School is held every Sunday immediately following the 8:00 am service. We are incorporating your new ideas into our gatherings to place a greater emphasis on the importance of our studies and our fellowship. We offer age appropriate youth study groups complete with interactive games to enhance the learning experience; and combined fellowship groups meet on designated Sundays. But please get there early for a delicious breakfast! And finally, we offer committed and compassionate teachers to enhance your experience. All fellowship groups meet in designated locations. Don't know where your fellowship group meets? Just ask a member of the Hospitality Ministry!

Always remember it’s important for everyone to attend a Weekly Bible Study, Mid-Week Worship, and Sunday School, as well as share your faith, and invite someone to worship and remember we have made a commitment Church Family to bring our families to the family altar. Also, if the congregation has any prayer requests please get a prayer request form located in the back of your pews and give it to an usher during the worship in giving to be prayed over by the Bishop and the Intercessors. Have a Blessed Day.
