For the last two weeks, our Pastor has been teaching from Ecclesiastes 3:1–11 (NLT), and today he challenged us through the 5th verse.

In this Pentecost season, God is calling the Church back to prophetic discernment — to scatter what destroys, gather what heals, embrace what is holy, and turn away from anything that opposes justice, truth, and the liberating power of Christ.

And what a powerful response:
9 souls saved
The sacred ceremony of baptism

In a world full of noise, today reminded us that God is still moving, still transforming lives, and still calling people home.

What a way to end the conference year.
What a Pentecost Sunday. 🙌🏾
