❤️ October is Pastor Appreciation Month! ❤️

Today, we want to take a special moment to show our love and appreciation for our Associate Pastor, Brother Randy Roper! 🙏

Brother Randy, we are so thankful for your willingness to serve the Lord and be a part of our Nazareth Advent Christian Church family. Your dedication to God’s work and your willingness to help wherever needed are blessings to our congregation. Ministry is not always easy, but your faithfulness and commitment to serving the Lord are important reminders of what it means to answer His calling.

We pray that God continues to strengthen you, encourage your heart, give you wisdom, and bless you as you continue serving Him. Never forget that the work you do for the Lord matters! Even the things that may seem small to others can make a lasting difference in someone’s life. God sees every prayer, every act of kindness, and every seed planted in faith.

Brother Randy, keep trusting the Lord, keep standing on His Word, and keep allowing Him to use you for His glory. We are grateful to have you serving alongside Pastor Stephen and being a part of what God is doing at Nazareth!

Church family, let’s show Brother Randy some love! ❤️👇

Take a moment to leave him an encouraging word, share a favorite memory, or tell him how his ministry has blessed you. Let’s remind him how much he is loved and appreciated!

We love you and appreciate you, Brother Randy! May God continue to bless you and your ministry. ❤️🙏

❤️ October is Pastor Appreciation Month! ❤️

Our Nazareth Advent Christian Church family wants to take this opportunity to show our love and appreciation for our pastor, Pastor Stephen Raby! 🙏

Pastor, thank you for your faithfulness to God, your dedication to His Word, and the love and care you show to our church family. We know that pastoring is more than standing behind a pulpit on Sunday morning. It means praying for others, carrying burdens, offering encouragement, and faithfully following God’s calling even when the road gets difficult.

We are thankful for your leadership, your prayers, your willingness to serve, and your heart for seeing souls come to know the Lord. We pray that God continues to give you strength, wisdom, encouragement, and many blessings as you continue the work He has called you to do.

Pastor, never forget that the work you do for the Lord is making a difference, even when you may not see the fruit right away. God sees every prayer, every sacrifice, every tear, and every seed you plant. Ministry may not always be easy, but you are making an eternal impact by faithfully answering God’s call. Keep preaching the truth, keep loving people, and keep trusting the One who called you! Your church family loves you, appreciates you, and is praying for you. ❤️

We love you, Pastor Stephen, and we are thankful God placed you in our church family! May God continue to strengthen you and remind you that you are exactly where He has called you to be. Your labor in the Lord is never in vain!

Now, we want to hear from our congregation! ❤️👇

Church family and community, please take a moment to leave Pastor Stephen a comment with a kind word, a favorite memory, a Bible verse, a word of encouragement, or a special way his ministry has touched your life. Let’s fill the comments with love, prayers, and encouragement to remind him how much he means to us!

With love and gratitude,
Your Nazareth Advent Christian Church Family

Sunday was a blessing! ❤️

Sunday our church family gathered around God’s Word while our young people enjoyed a fun afternoon of painting, creativity, and fellowship. It’s a joy to see hearts growing in faith and friendships being built along the way.

We are thankful for every child, every volunteer, and everyone who invests in the next generation. We pray these young hearts continue to grow in the knowledge and love of Jesus.

“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” — Proverbs 22:6

We’d love to have you join us this week at Nazareth
Advent Christian Church. There’s a place for everyone
