Greetings Family
Happy New Year and we Praise God for His Goodness and Mercy toward us allowing us to enter into a brand new year, 2025.
We pray that everyone had a wonderful holiday season and that each of you are ready to experience all that God has store for us collectively as a church and individually as His Children.

We Thank God for Pastor Cortez Hudson from Koinonia World Outreach Ministries in Fayetteville, NC who delivered a Powerful Word of encouragement for all of us from Galatians 6:9 that we not grow weary in well doing in 2025 to be the beneficiaries of the blessings of God in 2025.
