At Victory Church we have just completed our “congregational fast.” During this fast we have been asking for "God's favor" on our church and ministry. The Lord is certainly allowing us to “receive and walk in His favor.” Here are a few areas in which the Lord has bestowed His favor upon us during the last two months:
1. NEW FAMILIES!
We have had many new families attend Victory Church over the last two month and several of them have taken CLASS 101. Here are those that committed to membership and became the newest members to our church family: Chris and Karen Reely, Andre and Nathlaie Barrera, Wendy Hobson, and Danny Bauer.
2. NEW OFFICE FACILITIES!
The Lord has blessed with new office space and a very reasonable price! The new address for our offices is 209 E. Harnett Street (we are in the plaza with Twin Dragons).
3. MORE EDUCATIONAL SPACE AT MMS!
Last week Mike Collins and I had a meeting with Mr. Bob Stone, Principle at MMS, and he agreed to allow us to use the cafeteria in addition to what we are currently using! This is important because of our next blessing!
4. NEW SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES FROM NURSERY TO ADULT!
The Victory Leadership Team and I have unanimously agreed that we need better Bible training for all our children; therefore, beginning on Sunday, April 6th we will begin Sunday School at 9:30 AM for ALL AGES!
5. VOLUNTEERS TO TEACH SUNDAY SCHOOL!
I shared with you several weeks ago that we are going to begin a Sunday school program for all ages and I asked if you would volunteer. Many of you stepped up to the plate and said, “I will teach!” What a blessing! We will be meeting with you in the immediate future.
6. NEW ORDAINED LEADERS!
Dave Hornyak and Mike Collins are beginning training to become ordained Deacons here at Victory Church. We currently have two ordained Deacons, Darrell Renfro and Eldon Schmidt. Please pray for these four men as they prepare themselves for ordination by going through the necessary training.
7. JR. HIGH YOUTH MINISTRY EXPLODING!
Under the leadership of two couples: Bo and Sarah Troyer, and Dave and Dawnetta Hornyak, the youth ministry of 6th – 9th graders is growing in leaps and bounds. Not only haven they grown numerically, but there are great reports coming from this group concerning their spiritual growth! Way to go guys – I’m very proud of you!
As you can see, the Lord is blessing us with His favor! Therefore, let’s continue to “walk in His favor!”
