We thank God for the many who were involved in and ministered to at the Church Musical, Christmas Service and Covenant Renewal Service. We praise God for the decisions and commitments made, praying that the Holy Spirit will guard their hearts and minds.
Let us pray for a deeper walk with God in the new year, as well as a deeper commitment in our discipleship journey with Him.
