Minister’s Corner

Shalom aleikhem! שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם Peace be upon you!

Good morning. It is wonderful to be back with you! There is always a special joy in my heart gathering here, with you, as a church family—worshipping together, sharing in prayer, and opening God’s Word together. I am grateful for each of you and for the encouragement that comes from walking this journey of faith side by side.

This morning, we return to Acts 12 and reflect on a powerful theme: that of prayer.  In the midst of persecution and uncertainty, the believers gathered together and prayed earnestly for Peter. What followed was a remarkable reminder that prayer is not a formality or a last resort—it is the lifeline of the church. When God’s people pray, heaven listens, hearts are strengthened, and God moves in ways we could never accomplish on our own. As we worship today, may we be reminded of the power of prayer and encouraged to be a people who seek the Lord together with faith and perseverance.

This Wednesday – March 18^th, 6PM Dinner & 7PM Bible Class

Please make plans to join us for our BYOD (Bring Your Own Dinner) mid-week Fellowship at 6PM on Wednesday. This is a great time to connect, strengthen relationships and catch up with one another.

“The right answer to every problem is prayer first. Never let fear, stress or anxiety defeat your resolve to pray. Prayer teaches us, before anything else, to trust in God, not in our own wisdom or power. Secondly, it gives God ownership over your situation” — Manu Florescu
