Top of the Morning to you,
We greet you in Divine love, our prayer is that you and your family are walking under an open heaven!!!
Let me first start off with our weekend, on Friday Night October 16, 2009, our church was on program to host revival at the Greater Miracle Christian Church, in Columbus, Georgia. Pastor Branddon Mays was the Host Pastor. Rev. Patrick Ivey of Stone Mountain, Georgia was the evangelist. Pastor Ivey preached from Ezra 8:21-23,31-32 and his subject was enough of talking the talk and not walking the walk!! Man when I tell you it was an on time word, you had to be there to understand!!! Our mass choir the Voices of New Beginning did an awesome job as usual!!!
On Saturday I got up early to get to our District Convention, The 4th District Convention of General Missionary Baptist Convention of Georgia, Inc. The convention was being held at the Gethsemane Baptist Church in Columbus, Georgia. Pastor Hawthorne Reed was the Host Pastor. Listen when I tell you that if you did not make it to this year convention, you missed a tremendous blessing. I was able to attend the Minister's Division, and I must commend Pastor Corey Neal of the Greater Peace Baptist Church and his staff for doing an awesome job this year in our Division. The Division was inspiring and uplifting!! Pastor Kennedy from Lanett, Alabama was off the chain.
Alright on Sunday morning we started at 9:00am with New Member's class and at 9:30am we went right into our Sunday School hour, let me say to Sister Nakita Bell the Superintendent of our Sunday School, that she is doing an awesome job. We now have 4 classes, our Sunday School is growing!!!!! The lesson this morning was: "Pleading for Mercy" the print text came from Mark 7:24-30 it was an awesome lesson!!!
Worship started this morning at 11:00am well the weather changed outside so it was a bit cold and our attendance this morning for worship was down, but those of us who did show up for worship had an awesome time!! Our choir blessed us in song and the Word went forward!!
I close out the series,"When the Foundations be Destroyed what can the righteous do?" I preached from Matthew 16:18 and Acts 2:47b. The subject was "Let the church be the Church"
Well its been a busy weekend for me so I am debating if I want to travel to Houston, Texas. Bishop I. V. Hilliard is having his pastoral conference this week, preachers have been telling me his conference is one of the most informative conferences. So pray for me as I contemplate this decision!!!

Top of the afternoon to you,
We greet you in Divine love and our prayer is that you and your family are walking under an open heaven.
We began this Sunday with New Member's class at 9:00am and we started our Sunday School at 9:30am. The Sunday School lesson was Restored to Wholeness coming from Mark 5:1-13, 18-20. The lesson was a blessing. Our Banner attendance went to class #1 and our Banner offering went to the adult class!!
We had Baptism this morning with 2 souls going down in the liquid grave. We thank God for the Linwood Baptist Church and Pastor Marion Hester who allowed us to use their baptismal pool.
Service started promptly at 11:00am, now remember we just finished our Dunamis Conference "09" on Friday not and I must tell you that it was an awesome conference and Apostle Lionel Catchings of the Christ Temple of Atlanta Church was on time with the word from the Lord.
The reason I share with you about Dunamis is the fact when we started at the 11:00am hour church was full!!! Normally after revival folk are tired and stay home on Sunday but not at the New Beginning Church, we showed up and showed out.
Our Male Chorus was in charge of the song service. Thank you Brother Richard Harris for your dedication with the Male Chorus, we did an awesome job.(which means I sing with the Male Chorus)(Smiling)
The word for the house came from I Kings 8:10-11 and the subject as we continued the series of When the foundations be destroyed what can the righteous do?, was A Church that recognizes the Cause and Effect of the Glory!!! Listen when I tell you that the message was on time and awesome, if you were not there you missed a tremendous blessing!
The 1st point was there has to be structure(order). Its something about black folk that we don't let order. The 2nd point was there has to be prioritization, we have to learn to prioritize. The 3rd point was parallazation.
After service we took pictures for our Church Anniversary that will take place on Sunday October 25, 2009 at 4:00pm.
