Dear Stronger Hope,
I greet you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. ThankingI thank God for you always, and I'm praying for you nightly inthrough the Holy Spirit.
It has been twenty sixtwenty-six years since we started this journey together, moving and building mightily in the spirit of Christ.
I have been given the opportunity to shepherd and lead a mighty people for the Lord. Seeing you grow from where we were to where we are now, makesreassures me know that God has and is continuing to order our steps.
Twenty sixTwenty-six years is a relatively short amount of time in the sight of God. However, in this short period God has allowed us to develop and grow spiritually and physically as children of the kingdom., with the express mindset of knowing that what we do for Christ will last.
This twenty-sixth year allows all of us to reflect on the past, experience the present and envision the future. Beginning on West Street, we migrated to Watkins Drive and moved on to Beasley, making Beasley Road our home. All, all the while praying and asking God for great revelation as we prepare to move to our next phase of what God has planned for us.
Noah looked forward to building the ark. Moses looked forward to leading Israel fromout of Egypt. David and Solomon looked forward to leading God’s people to freedom and prosperity. I praise our Lord for our past history and our current walk in Christ. I must tell you that I am sincerely optimistic concerning our future. For,, because in the future, I shall endeavor to do with greater intensity, enthusiasm, joy and long sufferinglong-suffering what I started from the beginning. And that, which is to be a better and greater shepherd and pastor to you, the people of God.
