MISSION STATEMENT “WE ARE CALLED TO REACH OUR WORLD WITH THE LIGHT, LOVE AND MESSAGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST.” 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.

STATEMENT OF FAITH WE BELIEVE…. … there is one God, who is infinitely perfect, existing eternally in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 5:48, Matthew 28:19 … that man was created in the image of God, and because of disobedience in Eden we are all born sinners. We must be born again in order to enter into the kingdom of God. Romans 5 … that the Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, was crucified, died, was buried, was resurrected, ascended into heaven, and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father to deliver us from sin. He is true God and true Man. Romans 5:9, Acts 2:23–24, Hebrews 8:1, Matthew 26:64 … the Holy Spirit is a divine Person, sent to dwell, guide, teach, empower the believer, and convince the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment. John 14:15–18, John 16:13, Acts 1:9, John 16:7–11 … that the Old and New Testaments, inerrant as originally given, are the inspired word of God, and are a complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men. They constitute the divine and only rule of Christian faith and practice. 2 Peter 1:20–21, 2 Timothy 3:15–16 … that all believers are called to serve the Body of Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. Acts1:8, Romans 12 … in the imminent return of Jesus Christ for His Church, the Body of Christ, and that we will be like and with Him forever.
