πŸŽ‰ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR PASTOR! πŸŽ‰

Happy 58th Birthday to our Senior Pastor, Pastor Shawneeque McClam-Edwards! πŸ’œπŸŽ‚

Today, the Union Disciple family pauses to thank God for the gift of YOU.

We thank God for your YESβ€”your yes to God, your yes to the call, and your yes to picking up the mantle and continuing the vision entrusted to this house by your father, our late founder, Bishop Lethenial McClam.

We thank God for your tenacity to rebuild, restore, love, lead, pray, preach, worship, and serve. We see your sacrifice. We see the times when the team may look like a team of one, yet you continue to show up because of your love for God and your love for His people.

We thank God for the mantle of prayer and intercession upon your life and for every Word God has placed in your mouth to strengthen us, challenge us, encourage us, and grow us spiritually.

On this 58th birthday, our prayer is that God will increase you on every side. May He open doors no one can shut. May your name be spoken in rooms you never imagined entering. May He send the right people, resources, relationships, and divine connections to help carry the vision. And may this next chapter require less struggle and bring greater manifestation.

Pastor, we love you. We honor you. We support you. And most of all, we thank God for you.

Happy 58th Birthday, Pastor Shawneeque McClam-Edwards! πŸ’œπŸŽ‰

πŸ”₯ TODAY AT UNION DISCIPLE... HEAVEN SPOKE! πŸ”₯

This morning, the fire of God filled the sanctuary as our pastor released a timely and prophetic word from the Lord entitled:

✨ "Remember the Oil." ✨

The message reminded us that it is not enough to simply carry a lamp. The lamp represents the outward appearance of religionβ€”but the oil represents our intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit, and the dunamis power that sustains us while we wait.

As the signs of the times continue to unfold before our eyes, God is calling His Church to more than routine and religious activity. He is calling us to be a people who are full of the oilβ€”prepared, watchful, and ready for the return of the Bridegroom.

The question is no longer, "Do you have a lamp?" The question is, "Do you have enough oil?"

Jesus is coming back for a Bride who is ready. Now is the time to seek Him deeply, remain filled with His Spirit, and guard the precious oil that only comes through prayer, worship, obedience, and intimacy with God.

Take a moment to read this week's Pastor's Notes and allow these truths to encourage and challenge your heart.

Keep the oil. Keep the fire. Keep the faith.

"Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh." β€” Matthew 25:13 (KJV)

πŸ’™ FATHERS: WE NEED YOU πŸ’™

Although Father's Day has passed, our appreciation for fathers should never be limited to one day on the calendar.

Today, we want to continue celebrating and encouraging every father, grandfather, stepfather, adoptive father, spiritual father, and father figure who faithfully pours into the lives of others.

Your presence matters.
Your leadership matters.
Your example matters.
Your blessing matters.
Your heart matters.

Our families, churches, communities, and future generations are stronger because of fathers who choose to love, lead, protect, teach, pray, and serve.

If you are a father, be encouraged today. The role you play is significant, and the impact you make reaches far beyond what you can see. Keep showing up. Keep praying. Keep leading. Keep loving. Keep trusting God.

As we reflected in Sunday's message, "Fathers: We Need You," we are reminded that God desires to turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers (Malachi 4:6).

Thank you to all the fathers who continue to make a difference every day. May God strengthen you, bless you, and guide you as you walk in your divine assignment.

πŸ’™ Happy Belated Father's Day!
πŸ’™ We celebrate you today and every day.

πŸ’™ Happy Father's Day! πŸ’™

Today we celebrate and honor all fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, spiritual fathers, mentors, and father figures who have made a lasting impact through their love, guidance, sacrifice, and strength.

Thank you for the prayers you've prayed, the lessons you've taught, the sacrifices you've made, and the love you've given. Your presence matters, your voice matters, and your legacy matters.

May God continue to bless, strengthen, and favor every father today and always.

"The righteous man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him." β€” Proverbs 20:7 (KJV)

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing fathers! We celebrate you today! πŸŽ‰

πŸ“£ Noonday Reset Prayer Update πŸ“£

Due to unforeseen circumstances, today's Noonday Reset Prayer Gathering has been canceled.

While we will not gather corporately today, let us continue to be steadfast in prayer. Please keep our nation, our families, our children, our communities, and our churches lifted before the Lord. Now more than ever, we need the power of prayer and intercession.

We look forward to reconnecting with you next Wednesday at Noon for a time of Realignment β€’ Renewal β€’ Prayer.

πŸ“– "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." β€” James 5:16 (KJV)

Until then, keep praying, keep believing, and keep trusting God.

Today, our Pastor encouraged us with a mighty Word from Heaven!

Her sermon, "The Promises of God: Accessing What Heaven Has Already Spoken," was a prophetic and faith-building reminder that God is faithful to every promise He has made. Even in the waiting room, we can stand on His Word, renew our minds, speak life, and trust that what God has spoken shall come to pass.

Check out the Pastor's Notes for more insight and be encouraged to hold on to the promises of God. Though the vision may tarry, wait for it. God has not forgotten what He said concerning you.

πŸ’™ Be blessed, stay encouraged, and keep believing!

Β«The promise is still alive, and the God who made it is faithful.Β»
