IMPORTANT NOTICE

Greater New Light Family and Friends,

The current Coronavirus spread is serious.  Many times we try to minimize the impact of social, medical or political issues but this is one time in our history when the situation is real and cure is not yet available.  Therefore, we must be responsible in the way we conduct business in the house of worship.  It is also imperative for each of us to be responsibile in the way we conduct our daily lives outside of the church.  The following is a list of updated information to help minimize the spread of the Coronavirus...

• Wash your hands often and for 20 seconds each time.
• Wipe down surfaces with anticeptic sheets and discard after use.
• If you have a fever above 100.8 degrees contact your doctor for instructions.
• Please cough or sneeze in your elbow.
• Do not share eating or drinking utensils unless thoroughly washed and dried.
• Avoid random crowds.  
• Groups larger than 10 people are to be avoided.
• The best websites to get up-to-date information on the Coronavirus is www.cdc.gov (Centers for Disease Control) and www.nih.gov (National Institutes of Health).

This health emergency is serious.  This is not a joke.  This is not a game.  People are dying.  Young and old are contracting this virus and without an effective cure it is spreading rapidly.  Some think this is a false health scare to stur political favor or false hysteria and the fact is that this is a real and true health emergency.  Please make good choices.  Stay home if possible.  Obverse social isolation but take the time to call someone and share your love and prayers.

We are the people of God...in good times and in difficult times...GOD IS GOOD!  Keep believing.  Keep praying.  Stay faithful.  "For we walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7).

Much love,

Pastor Jones

PS. To ensure fiscal stability for the Greater New Light MBC, Pastor Jones' monthly salary will be discontinued until further notice.  We are in this together and together we will get through this.  Stay strong in Christ.

OUR WORLD NEEDS PRAYER!!!

PEOPLE OF GOD!!!  Remember, "For We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" (Ephesians 6:12 NKJV).  Stay focused.  Stay prayerful.  Stay strong, trust God and never live in fear.  Go forward!

*** NOTE ***

Dear Friend, if you are in the Body of Christ please join us in serious prayer for our Families, our Parents and our Children. 

What We Believe...

It is our belief that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.  Christ died on the cross so that our sins can be forgiven.  Accepting Christ as our personal Lord and Saviour is what makes us saved and  it allows us to be "filled" with the Holy Spirit.  Serving the Lord is what makes us worthy of the blessings and the joys promised.  We love the Lord.  We serve the Lord.  We love one another.  We support one another. 

Our task is to preach and teach the Word of God to the people of God in such a way as to move us to make choices and changes in our lives that will allow God to have His way in and through us.  Everyone, regardless of age, race, gender or religious "affiliation" needs to know that Jesus Christ died on the cross for their sins and all Christ asks in return is that we form a personal relationship with him and and receive the Holy Spirit.

- - - - - - - - - - -  

Here, I have to warn you that this personal relationship with Christ, if it is true, if it is based on faith and love and trust, it can bring you everything you desire in life.  The warning is needed because others may not have that same level of faith, love and trust that you might have and subsequently they might not understand or appreciate the "new you."  Keep growing and going forward and God will give you what you need in due time. 

Hang in there because the changes in your life will be worth the effort.
