"Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."--Ephesians 6:13
Did you know that in 1848, Kingston wasn't a city yet, and the U.S. consisted of just 28 states--14 free, the others slave. Many of our congregants served to ensure the survival of this country. Now, 175 years later--50 states strong--and still fighting for that more perfect Union--here we stand.
That's the importance of the fight: You don't have to perfect to stand up for what's right.
So, if you can, please join us Saturday, July 8th @1:30 pm to celebrate our congregation's 175th Anniversary.
I visited the church in helping with the full celebration this year. I was much inspired that I joined in with the church family. Although, as a traveling Bishop not connected with that area, Praise the Lord, I have a place to come fellowship, sing, and enjoy church with my new church ⛪️ family. I want to say thank you for your love, kindness, blessings from each of you.
To the Pastor :
May you be richly bless, as you continue in leading your flock.
Stay bless,
Dr. Bishop Jordan
