Announcements for the Month of January

​

Intercessory Prayer Team:

First union’s Prayer Ministry is forming an Intercessory Prayer Team. We are in need of many Spiritual Soldiers to stand on the frontline in prayer. We will concentrate our prayers in 5 specific and much needed areas of our ministry.  

Bible Study:

We will resume our study of Ruth and Esther. We will be using, as a study guide, the book titled, “Ruth and Esther, completion and reconciliation in Christ.” Ruth has only four brief chapters, but it is a mighty midget with a mighty message. In fact, it has several messages. It gives a genealogy that leads to the Lord Jesus Christ, and it explains His coming from the line of David. The primary purpose of the Book of Ruth is the presentation of an important phase in the doctrine of redemption. Redemption is possible only through a Kinsman–Redeemer. Come study with us!!!

​

 Yearlong Scripture Pursuit:

All church members are asked to engage in a yearlong scripture pursuit. Each member should select a weekly scripture to support your walk with the Lord. For the first few months of the year please select a praise text.

​

Evangelism and Witnessing Campaign (FRANGELISM):

FRANGELISM is a form of Evangelism which targets people within your sphere of influence to invite to church. Yes, that's right! It's a basic form of evangelism and you need only invite someone to church. 1 Corinthians 3:6 tells us that we are instruments used by God, who together with Him, serve to promote His Glory.
