Dear Friends,
What a joy it is to announce the celebration service of the anniversary of our church’s founding! Consider this your invitation to our Church Anniversary!
It's amazing to think about, but it was (NUMBER OF YEARS) ago that a small group of people gathered together with the desire to plant a church to have an impact on their community. Little did they realize what would take place, but I'm sure they dreamed a bit about the possibilities, aren't you?
There was a time in the Old Testament when the temple was being rebuilt and the statement was given that went like this; Zechariah 4:10a (MSG) 10a Does anyone dare despise this day of small beginnings? They'll change their tune when they see Zerubbabel setting the last stone in place!”
With any great work, there will always be some level of opposition, especially when it comes to the work of God! We may never know the struggles it took to get this fledgling work off the ground, but one thing we do know; it DID indeed get off the ground and continues to have an impact to this day on our community, and yes, even the world through our generous giving to Missions work.
