God’s plans and purposes in this world are bigger than us.  His glory is too great for his praise to be confined to suburban America.

Thanks to the many of you who joined us for the Day of Prayer & Fasting this past Saturday.  It was a very significant day of corporate prayer.  I am convinced that God is preparing us for many good works! Due to scheduling conflicts, we are canceling this Sunday’s Prayer & Worship Night.  But that doesn’t mean we aren’t praying!   Folks meet to pray every Friday at 7 pm in the Nursing Mom’s Room off the foyer and every Sunday at 9:30 am in the front of the auditorium...
