Greetings Church Family:

AS WE BEGIN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2026 THERE ARE TWO THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT THAT BEGIN THIS MONTH. ONE IS A NEW SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDY ON THE PROPHETS THAT WILL RUN FOR 15 WEEKS IN WHICH WE WILL LEARN ABOUT 16 PROPHETS AND THEIR LIVES AND MESSAGES THEY OFFERED TO THEIR AUDIENCES. IF YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TO OUR SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME TO START. WE BEGIN ABOUT 9:00AM AND RUN FOR AN HOUR WITH A TEACHING TIME AND DISCUSSION AND THEN END WITH A TIME SHARING OUR PRAYER NEEDS.

WE WILL START OFF THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY LOOKING AT THE PROPHETS OBADIAH, JOEL AND JONAH. WHAT WE DO KNOW ABOUT THE PROPHETS IS THAT THEY SOMETIMES BROUGHT A HARD MESSAGE FOR THEIR PEOPLE THAT MIGHT HAVE BROUGHT SOME DISCOMFORT BUT WOULD GIVE THEM WAYS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. THIS MIGHT BE A MESSAGE THAT WE MIGHT NEED IN OUR OWN LIVES TODAY.

THE OTHER THING STARTING IN FEBRUARY IS A NEW PREACHING SERIES ON THE BOOK OF ACTS. THE TITLE OF THESE NEW SERIES IS CALLED “ TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH”. THIS SERIES OF MESSAGES WILL LAST TILL THE END OF MAY WITH A BREAK FOR PALM SUNDAY, EASTER SUNDAY AND MOTHERS DAY WHERE YOU WILL HEAR SPECIAL MESSAGES FOR THOSE SUNDAYS.

  WE WILL HEAR ABOUT HOW WE ARE CHALLENGED TO BE A WITNESS TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH AND THAT WE CAN NOT DO THIS ON OUR OWN BUT NEED THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. IN ACTS THE CHURCH BEGINS BY SHARING WITH EACH OTHER AND LIFTING UP EACH OTHER IN PRAYER AND ENCOURAGEMENT. WE WILL ALSO LEARN ABOUT SAUL WHO BECOMES PAUL AND HOW GOD USES HIM AS AN INSTRUMENT TO SHARE THE GOOD NEWS. WE FIND OUT THAT GOD HAS NO FAVORITES AND ALL ARE INVITED TO HIS TABLE OF GRACE, MERCY AND FORGIVENESS. PAUL’S JOURNEY IS A LONG ONE BUT FINALLY END UP IN ROME WHERE THE GOSPEL GOES HOME.

MUCH TO LOOK FORWARD TO THIS COMING MONTH AND THE MONTHS AHEAD, MAY WE CONTINUE TO GROW CLOSER TO OUR SAVIOR DURING THIS TIME.

GOD BLESS

Pastor Mark
