This Week's Missions Prayer Point

SeeLife — Focus on the Family

SeeLife, part of Focus on the Family, supports pregnancy centers by providing care and resources to women facing unexpected pregnancies. Their mission is to help people see life as God does and take action to protect and value every life.

About SeeLife

Let us especially pray for Secretary of State Marco Rubio for his influence to defund Planned Parenthood. He has been fighting to end abortions long before he became Secretary of State and he has the full backing of the current administration.

NEW STEEPLE FOR 9 HIGH STREET PARSONAGE

A Legacy of Faith — A Future of Hope

Bell Tower Detail
Historic High Street Parsonage

The historic High Street Parsonage has long stood as a symbol of faith and community. Today, it faces serious water damage caused by the aging bell tower, which has become unsafe and must be removed to preserve the structure.

The original bell, estimated to date back to the early 1800s, will be preserved and displayed at our Spring Street location, ensuring its legacy continues to inspire future generations. The cross from the High Street tower will be repurposed to crown a new steeple, symbolizing renewal, restoration, and God's continuing faithfulness.

Your gift will help us:

  • Safely remove the deteriorated bell tower
  • Repair and restore the building
  • Preserve the historic bell for display
  • Create a new steeple at our Spring Street facility

Visit our giving page to contribute to this important restoration project. Select or indicate "Building Fund" as the designation for your gift. Thank You!

Tithings and Offerings

We have several ways you can give!

We invite you to join us in supporting God's work through your generous giving. Your tithes and offerings help us reach the lost, train the saints, and advance God's Kingdom in our community and beyond. Visit our giving page to discover the convenient ways you can participate in this ministry - every gift, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference in the lives we serve together.

The 4 Spiritual Laws

  1. God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.
    John 3:16
  2. But Humanity is tainted by sin and is therefore separated from God. As a result, without Christ we cannot know God's wonderful plan for our lives.
    Romans 3:23
  3. Jesus Christ is God's only provision for our sin. Through Jesus Christ, we can have our sins forgiven and restore a right relationship with God.
    Romans 5:8
  4. To receive this gift: We must place our faith in Jesus Christ as Savior in order to receive the gift of salvation and know God's wonderful plan for our lives.
    John 1:12

Prayer of Repentance

Dear God, I know I'm a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is Your Son. I believe that He died for my sin and that you raised Him to life. I want to trust Him as my Savior and follow Him as Lord, from this day forward.
