My Excitement for the Future of This Church Just Got a Little “Fuller”!

What a great boost to this congregation and what tremendous promise for the future having Dan Fuller ordained as an elder of Palm Beach Lakes.  I have long respected Dan and his family (as have so many others), and I know that this congregation will be blessed to have him serving as one of its shepherds.

Has He Asked Too Much of Us?

Have you ever been given a task which seemed impossible to fulfill? Consider this one.

Mission Sunday, God and You

To say that I am overwhelmed by the Mission Sunday contribution is such an understatement! I am so thankful for being part of a congregation which sacrificially manifests its love for the lost. The greatest attribute of this contribution is that there are no outstandingly large contributions, but there is abundant evidence that many sacrificed to give to Him. God is aware…
