Birthday Blessings to Overseer Ellerbe!
Today, the members of New Beginnings Full Gospel Ministries come together with grateful hearts to celebrate the life of a true man of God, Overseer Michael Ellerbe, our pastor, our leader, our teacher, and our visionary.
We thank God for the gift that you are to this ministry and this community. Thank you for the countless seeds you’ve sown into our lives, through the Word, through your prayers, and through your faithful leadership.
Thank you for being a bold voice who speaks the unadulterated Word of God. Thank you for being a confidant we can trust, and for being a man who truly walks in integrity. Thank you for leading the way with compassion and courage.
We honor you for your many years of organizing and leading the food ministry, and for always serving with excellence and love. We are also grateful that under your leadership, we have celebrated 30 years of ministry and now walk into our 31st year, stronger than ever.
As you celebrate your birthday today, we pray that everything you have lifted up before God will come to pass. May your vision be fulfilled, your strength be renewed, and your impact continue to grow. We thank God for the blessing you are not only to this church, but to everyone you meet.
We stand on the Word of God:
“Believe in the LORD your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.”
– 2 Chronicles 20:20
“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints…”
– Ephesians 4:11-12
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and He delighteth in his way.”
– Psalm 37:23
“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?’ And I said, ‘Here am I. Send me!’”
– Isaiah 6:8
Happy Birthday, Overseer Ellerbe!
May this be your best year yet and full of answered prayers, fresh oil, and overflow. We love you and we thank God for you!
In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
