Dear Friends,
Christ Works! His Spirit transforms us to accomplish exceedingly above anything we can ask or imagine!
God’s Holy Spirit is one of the three persons of the Trinity! One of the Spirit’s functions is to give us heavenly power for ministry in the earthly realm. In the book of Acts, the Holy Spirit transformed 11 ordinary disciples into extraordinary messengers of the Gospel. God gave power for signs, wonders, and miracles to authenticate their message and ministry. This boggles my mind but it is true, That very same transforming power has not diminished with time… It is accessible and applicable in you today!

This Sunday, God calls us to worship as His family. We will assemble together, sing, praise, give, celebrate, and grow strong in the Word. I will anticipate seeing you Sunday for our next message in the Revive Series — “Spirit Power!”
In Christ Alone,
Pastor Larry

The Vision of the Body -United, Revived, & Sent
Revive Stark County is not only a church goal, it is growing to be a God work for our county. I was grateful for an opportunity to speak at the Pastor’s Appreciation Lunch hosted by the Alive Festival. I was able to cast a vision for unity for revival to over 100 area pastors, and shared that we were praying for their congregations to be united, revived and sent for LIFE. Thank you for accepting the assignment to slow down in passing churches in your travels and pray…
“Holy Spirit, Unite your Body and Breathe life!”

When people ask “Where can I find the Bible basics?” I always recommend the gospel of John in the Bible. It contains the foundation claims and bold promises of Jesus Christ! Great News! A new and exciting study on the Gospel of John is happening. Wednesdays at 9:30 am, in Room #101, you will get the basics, grow in faith, build friendships and study the Gospel of John. Dave Snyder will lead the conversation and everyone is invited!
