WELCOME ADDRESS by Host Pastor
The great God that deserves to be praised greatly is our God (Psalm 145:3). Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever. Hallelujah! It was just like yesterday when the Lord told us three years before this parish was birthed that we would be coming to Akron. As it is written, “Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase," we have seen God's faithfulness over the last seven years in every life, every marriage, every home in the church, in the parish and in our land.
Our ever faithful, ever true Lord and Savior has proven Himself in innumerable ways as "The Alpha and the Omega." We remember the Stow Ohio dinner with friends held on Sunday, May 9th 2010. HE has shown that He alone has the final say in the affairs of men, "The Almighty." As our Helper, He told us we are stepping into "our season of help." HE is still manifesting Himself as the ever-fresh, ever-new God, the God of "a new thing." In His mercy HE taught us the "power

Ha! "For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater" (Isaiah 55:10), "there is a lifting up" commanded for you in Jesus Name!
As it is written, you are "complete in Him" (Colossians 2:10), I prophesy a completion for you, your household, your vocation and your ministry IJN! Even as the Lord had to touch the blind man twice (Mark 8: 22-25) to bring restoration and completion his way. I rejoice with you, as you rejoice with the RCCG Jesus House Akron as we celebrate seven years of God's faithfulness that the Sovereign Lord himself will give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing (1 Peter 5:10). Be blessed, in Jesus mighty Name.
What marks most pastors who come to our ministry is their brokenness. In every case, pastors resigning from their church are broken, beaten, and discouraged. Pastorless churches are a paradoxical development in the United States. While plenty of clergy abound in the US, fifteen hundred pastors leave the ministry each month due to moral failure, spiritual burnout, or contention in their churches.
Almighty Good you deserve all that we are, you do for us when we least expect you to. You gave your son to shed his blood on Calvary for our sins and we remember in this solemn
Once again, God has come down and spoken to a human on earth and brought good news, news that will forever change the course of the Christian history. In each case, God is providing information that will help his followers rather than hurt them. God is there to guide his people in the right direction and provide them with the necessary props and information to best help his followers.
If you live by God’s Word, He will give you blessings and continue to help you succeed.
We have just come into our own at Park Lake Drive Baptist Church, after years of
As I read Fundamentals: Enduring Convictions of the Restoration, through the lens of this assignment, I gained new insight and a different appreciation for his visionary calling to provide a theological perspective that aligns us with a larger Christian understanding.
Cory Methodist Church in Cleveland, Ohio. This speech can be seen as a call to action for the audience.
Beyond the new discoveries, there is the opportunity of new people to intertwine and unify as one under our God, as they understand that they have been without order deep inside of their hearts, and crave our way of living and accept it willingly; when St. Peter unfolded his arms to the heathens of Rome, where they “received and obeyed the priests whom their Highnesses sent to preach to them and teach them our Holy Faith; and of their own free will, without any reward or condition.” (par.
Hardships will be coming upon the earth with increased force, these trials will ultimately serve to unite his people with cause and purpose. As God's Word is lifted high in all its weight and authority, answers to these ensuing issues will be revealed.
It was the first time that I felt God’s presence at an annual conference. As odd as it may sound, it is true. Bishop Chow tipped off the conference with an open dialogue about the state of the church. Of course I debated with the young man next to me that it was our inability to attract and keep youth. I argued that our traditional structure has built a fence too high for millennials and screenagers (Generation Z) to climb; making them feel boxed in and unwelcomed. But Bishop Chow quickly proved us wrong. His diagnosis was that the Holy Spirit had left the church. Because we’ve become so entangled with who we are, the Holy Spirit cannot move within the church. He asserted that new programs and initiatives cannot fix a dead church; that we must loosen the chains that we’ve given ourselves so that we can fully praise God. Only then, will his people draw near. I could feel God move amidst the hearts of the conference.
On this account I, or rather the lord, beseech you as Christ’s heralds to publish this
The annual praise house church service event occurred on November 5, 2017, in Allen Chapel AME Church at 11am. There were representatives of Christ Our Redeemer AME church, pastors from other church homes, non Ida B. Wells and Persist members, and alumni that attended this praise house. Anyone and everyone was welcomed to partake in the celebration of the praise house tradition of the plantation church. My role was to help lift the voices of the Bush Arbor Choir and to harmonize with my church sisters to fill the sanctuary with the old ritual hymns and negro spirituals , that would get people moving and rejoicing for the Lord. This praise house service was performed not only to reflect upon honoring our ancestors in the African Slave

Good morning everyone! My name is Jacob Gravel, I am a life scout working towards my Eagle and am currently the Senior Patrol Leader of troop 85. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Pastor Goodrich for his patience and time for helping us plan out Scout Sunday. Also, to you the church, for supporting and sponsoring our troop so that it’s rich history can be continued. You are all invited and welcome to share a delicious meal prepared by the scouts and attend our next Court of Honor which will be at Plum Creek. If you would like further information, please speak with one of the scouts after the service.
