"THE VICTOR'S RIBBON" | SUNDAY WORSHIP

Praise the Lord, for once again, another blessed Sunday Worship. We thank God for the very opportunity of fellowship, service, and dedication, in which the PMCC 4th Watch - Washington DC/VA brethren worshipped with fervor and zeal, giving thanks and adoration to the Lord. From our Praise & Worship, that was led to us by Sis. Sharon, delivering songs of joy and praise, to our Songs of Praises, both rendered by our dear Sis. Archie Fabros Mercado and the Men's Department, and to our messages given by Elder Joseph Calapati and Sis. Ren D**o.

A message, entitled, "The Victor's Ribbon". This message reminds us of the Christian faith, through the cloud of witnesses, how sin can shatter our faith, perseverance prevailing, and that we must also fix our faith and eyes on Jesus, not the ways of the world. First, we are blessed to have these "cloud of witnesses" because they are those who have gone before us, past believers and saints, as we can look up to them as an example of faith. To our second point, mentioning how sin can slow us down, what defiles us, and can wreak havoc upon our spirituality and relationships. To the third point, which shows that difficulties are always going to be a reality for us, but these are trials that test us and we must continue to persevere. Lastly, we must continue to fix our eyes upon Jesus, walking in the footsteps of Him, so that we are not distracted by the world.

Praise the name of the Lord, and may all the glory and honor be upon His name!

1 Corinthians 9:24-25 (NIV) - "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever."

We also thank the Lord for providing us receptive people, in light of our Home Free Global Crusade coming here to the East Coast in New York. We also thank our dear Sis. Ren D**o for delivering empowering words, that we must come to Christ in full surrender in order to be saved from this wicked generation. Praise God!

'HFGC IS GOD'S TOUCH' | HFGC KICK-OFF

Glory be to God! What an event to look forward to, as the Home Free Global Crusade is coming VERY soon here in New York!. As our program was dedicated to our HFGC kick-off, the PMCC 4th Watch - Washington DC/VA brethren gathered together to once again worship and serve the Lord, deepening themselves for the day to come. From our Praise & Worship, delivering songs of joy and glory upon the Lord, to our songs of praises that were given to us by Sis. Melanie & Sis. Sharon, to our messages that were rendered by our dear Ptr. Ivan D**o and Sis. Ren D**o.

We were also blessed by the HFGC New York Segments, that were led by our dear Ptr. Ivan & Sis. Ren.

The second segment was led by Sis. Ren, in which we were presented with our very merch reveal, dance challenge, and news reporter challenge.

And finally, to our message entitled, 'HFGC IS GOD'S TOUCH', in which we were reminded by these 4 points. First, the Lord uses His very word to touch the hearts of all, as He is the only one who can touch the very depths of our soul. Second, the Lord uses the church to make Himself known, and we as the individuals of the church must work hand-in-hand in His plan. Third, the Lord uses His Spirit to guide and lead people, especially through the lives of those who are being changed. Last but not the least, the Lord uses the leaders in the church to shepherd and lead the congregation. Praise God!
