MISSION STATEMENT

1. We want to welcome you to this house of worship dedicated to the Lord as a sanctuary of grace and mercy. You have entered in through the “Doors of Praise” and now you are standing or sitting between the “Walls of Salvation” Our prayer for you is that you will not leave here the same way you came in, but that you will experience God’s incredible love for you through everyone you meet and that your fellowship will be real. We believe God has called us to minister to you specifically, so relax and enjoy as you participate in the praise and worship and open your heart to the ministry of the word as we feed you from God’s sweet, anointed and precious word. God desires for us to “Reign in our Territory” PASTOR LESTER & PASTOR LAVERNE WALTERS & NLM FAMILY WE WELCOME YOU AN INVITATION Jesus said in Revelation 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.” As you read this, you are encouraged to respond to the love of God and the invitation of Jesus by opening the door of your heart by faith to a very real relationship with Jesus Christ as Savior from Sin and Lord of your life. Prayer: God I confess to you that I am a sinner and that I have sinned against You. I ask You to forgive me for all of my sins and I repent for my sins. I believe in my heart that You sent Your son Jesus Christ to die for my sins on the cross and that you raised Him up from the dead. I believe Christ is alive in me and I accept Him as Lord of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. If you prayed this prayer let us be the first to WELCOME YOU TO THE FAMILY OF GOD. HOW GREAT THOU ART Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee, How great Thou art, How great Thou art. Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee, How great Thou art, How great Thou art! MISSION STATEMENT “WE ARE CALLED TO REACH OUR WORLD WITH THE LIGHT, LOVE AND MESSAGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST.”
