(Ephesians 5:27) Praying together, we desire to fulfill the mandate of Psalm 139: " Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; 24 And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting." Psalm 139:24 You can join us, any Sunday evening, at 10:00 p.m. EST by calling: 712-770-5350 Access Code: 150411# WELCOME!
