We praise God for another day of worship. We are so glad that you have come to join us on this Family and Friends Day here at our church. We WELCOME you in Jesus’ name.
Many Christians love evangelism as long as somebody else is doing it. It is somewhat a recurring theme that church people frequently talk about or even bemoan the lack of it. However, they themselves are not involved in the activity. It is my opinion that the vast majority of people, who profess Christianity, have probably never shared their faith, calling on someone to trust and follow Jesus Christ.
A recent study of churchgoing Canadians was very disturbing. It revealed that 59 percent of them had not invited anyone to church in the previous six months. And, even though 58 percent said they feel comfortable sharing their faith, 78 percent said that they had not shared that faith with anyone in the previous six months. American churchgoers were no different.
The prayer of my heart is that God would help us as a church and as individual believers to be always conscious of the lost around us. Thus on Friday August 22, we will be returning to Savan to spread the message of the Gospel. We are urging all to get involved and join us in this outreach effort. Let us position ourselves so that God can use us in the business of kingdom expansion.

Ten tips to plan ahead this hurricane season.
1. Check your insurance coverage to make sure it reflects the current state of your home.
2. Doing a home inventory can save you time. Document the contents and Keep receipts for valuables.
3. Protect your property by installing hurricane shutters.
4. Create a safe room that can withstand high winds and flying debris.
5. Keep up with your landscaping, remove diseased and damaged tree limbs, etc.
6. Stock your emergency supply kit with basic survival items.
- 2-week supply of water
- Ready to eat non-perishable food items for every family member and pet.
- If you evacuate, you’ll want a 3-day supply of the same.
- Remember medicines for yourself and all family members.
7. Have an established evacuation plan to help reduce stress.
8. If you don’t have transportation of your own, make arrangements now with friends or family members and don’t forget about the pets!
9. Lastly, gather important papers to take with you.
10. Don’t take silly risks like running back into a home that’s been destroyed or refuse to evacuate when you’ve been ordered to, just to salvage material possessions. Things can be replaced, but people cannot.
