 To God be the glory for the things He has done. Hello, I greet you in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ. The work we have set our hands to do is to see clearly the vision God has set before us to perfectly understand God's word, will, and purpose by having an intimate relationship with "The Word" His Son "The Divine Logos", by receiving a Rhema  (utterance) from The Spirit (The Paraclete); to become true disciples of Christ.

There are many who are burdened by weights of pain because of loneliness, grief, sickness, addition and guilt. We’d like say to people like these and many others who suffer that there really is a way out of your distress and sorrow.  It’s not religion, church membership, nor good moral values, but it is a personal relationship with Jesus. We want to say to those who feel that they’re down and out for the count that Jesus wants to get personal with you. He’s willing to come right where you are, no matter how deep the hole, and lift you above your burdens. “He’s right where you are” just call on Him and He will answer.

It is our goal to go into the hedges and the highways, to our cities, state and country, and to the world to tell as many who will hear, that God loves them and he cared so much that he sent His Son Jesus to rescue us from our sins. There is Hope.

To those of you who may be searching for a church fellowship, growth through in-depth verse-by-verse study of God's word and expository preaching, while being lead of the Lord feel free to visit with us .We are a growing congregation who gather with an “Attitude of Gratitude” with emphasis on praise and worship. There is a place for the young and the young at heart, from toddlers to seasoned saints. We have various programs in place to nurture spiritual growth and are committed to implementing others to help promote holistic healing and holy direction for our daily and spiritual lives.

For those who visit this site and you have a prayer request, please e-mail us with your request, or use the prayer request button, it will remain confidential unless you specify otherwise.

May God bless each of you as you look to “Jesus the author and finisher of our faith” Keep Looking Up.

 

Engagements

More Than a Pastor


Some call you Bishop, some call you Pastor.
Some call you a man they want to model themselves after.
You are quick to say I’m just Odell, nothin more and nothin less, but through you God has truly blessed. You Bless so many people and encouraged so many hearts.
You hold the family together strong when it seems to be falling apart.


What kind of man will smile in the face of danger and hard times?
 I guess the same man that will give you his last dime.
 "Obedience is better than sacrifice" You drilled that into Evergreen
Then you lead by example to show us what that really means.


I remember sitting in your office listening to all the funny stories you have told, especially the ones that begin with the saying “Oh when you get old!!!" 
I can't leave out the big smile. It brings peace to my heart when I’m feeling down.


I haven't forgotten about His 1st and ONLY Lady. Their love for each other is amazing. When I speak of Him I’m also speaking of her. She loves you no Matter what and takes you for who you are. He is more than a pastor, more than a man. To some he is a mentor and others a friend.  Most of all He is a Child of God, sent to preach the Gospel and Jesus the Christ crucified. We are Blessed to have a Pastor like him.


For 23 years you touched our lives. I could go on and on but why bother. I thank God because when I lost mine, He gave me another man i can call Father.
