Advent and Christmas are seasons that remind us of God’s hope for us and in us. God’s Promise fulfilled in the Savior born and the King who will return is our source of hope. Your church staff’s prayer for you and your family is that you would experience the joy and power of Hope.
“We do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men who have no hope.” 1 Thessalonians 4:13
“I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten…” Joel 2:25

“What are you doing that unless God shows up you will fail”
All the above are quotes from Bishop Lawrence.
