THE LORD
When I Think about the Lord,
How He saved me, how He raised me, How He filled me, with the Holy Ghost.
How He healed me, to the uttermost.
When I Think about the Lord,
How He picked me up and turned me around,
How He placed my feet on solid ground
It makes me wanna shout
Hallelujah, Thank you Jesus,
Lord, your worthy, of all the glory,
and all the honor, and all the praise
BECAUSE OF WHO YOU ARE
Because of who you are, I give you glory
Because of who you are, I give you praise
Because of who you are, I will lift my voice and say
Lord, I worship you because of who you are
Lord, I worship you because of who you are
Jehovah Jireh, my provider
Jehovah Nissi, Lord, you reign in victory
Jehovah Shalom, my Prince of Peace
And I worship you, because of who you are

Matthew 11:20-2; Acts 19:11; Acts 12:28; 1 Corinthians 12:28; Hebrews 2:4
God is doing a new thing and taking us to a new level. He calls us to seek Him and will do miracles in our midst. This year we are praying for miracles in our lives, the lives of our families, and our Church family. As we pray and seek His face, we are going to give God Majestic Praise along the way. The songwriters said: I seek a miracle every day and I want to Praise Him.

“Join Pastor Lloyd for Wednesday in the Word”
Since Wednesday, May 17th, we have started the study of 1 Kings. The study picks up with David making Solomon king to succeed him on the throne. Solomon had mixed results, with his wealth and wisdom being known worldwide. He built palaces and cities, and a beautiful temple.-The house of the Lord did not match. But while on the throne, he also allowed idol worship to creep into the kingdom. And after his death, a civil war tore the nation in two. Successive kings were mainly terrible, and the prophet Elijah had dramatic confrontations with King Ahab, who could forget Jezebel on the scene. Join us Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm.

COVID is a stressor, and can affect us physically, medically, psychologically, socially, and financially.
Prolonged stress, often associated with loss or threat, is a component of individual trauma. Even though the pandemic has officially passed, for many the traumatic impact remains current including post-traumatic stress symptoms, anxiety and depression.
This presentation will provide a view of COVID in a framework of trauma and discuss ways to promote healing.
