Last Sunday was a day of pure blessing! We celebrated and honored all the mothers. Each mother was presented with a special gift.

Pastor Ruth Charlton shared a powerful and encouraging Word from Proverbs 31:28-29, "The Ideal Mother". She shared that Mother's Day is more than a tradition, and that it is a celebration of love, gratitude and appreciation. She reminded us that the ideal mother shields and protects for what's ahead, carries burdens, and loves to see unity in the family. She encouraged each mother to take authority over their children!

Join us each Sunday at 10:00AM!
