Brothers and Sisters,

On Sunday we will examine the letter to the church in Philadelphia. It is one of the most encouraging letters a church could ever receive. It is not only filled with beautiful, graphic and heartwarming imagery, it contains rich declarations of the loveliness of Christ. Further, it is full of promises.

Prayer will be held at the Brown’s Barn.

Mike Davenport will focus our Sunday afternoon teaching on Hebrews 12:4-11, “The Discipline of a Loving Father.”

Remember to pray for the group going to downtown Raleigh to evangelize on Friday Night meeting at 8:45 at Freddy Molina’s and then the group will travel to Raleigh. If interested contact Freddy, [email protected]

Also, John Snyder will be preaching at Hope, March 21 for the morning, the afternoon and a special evening service at 7:00.
