Minister’s Corner

Shalom aleikhem! שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם Peace be upon you!

Thank you for joining us for today’s service, I pray you will be blessed by your presence and by the communion with God’s elect in Troy as well as by the word Patrick Oja will bring this morning.

This is the day that the Lord has made, let us be glad and rejoice in it. The Bible tells us that not even one sparrow falls to the ground outside the Father’s will. That is an incredible statement but a very encouraging one for all who go through turmoil and anguish in life. Our condition is known to God and if it is known and allowed to enter our lives, no matter how dire and troubling the circumstances or experience may be, God will provide the strength, the patience to endure and overcome BUT, I believe, these are only available when God is the source of strength and comfort we seek during those times. Seek Him 1^st each day, is the key to life!

This Wednesday – May 18^th – Family Time & Philippians Study

On Wednesday, we will meet in person for our Family Time at 6:00PM for those of you who want to bring their meal and eat it in the company of other brothers and sisters. This is our weekly fellowship meal.
