Washington Gardens Beacons Blazing a Trail with Bibles in Hand

Graduation day brings with it a wide range of emotions for graduates and their families alike. It is a celebratory time, a time of pride and happiness as all focus on their achievements. Sabbath, October 5, 2019 saw the graduates of the Beacon of Light Bible School at the Washington Gardens Seventh-Day Adventist Church beaming with pride and a sense of accomplishment as they marched with stately gait at the start of the afternoon’s event. Their achievement was significant not only for time but for eternity. Read More> and Click to view photo highlights of the service.

To God be the glory great things he hath done and continue to do. Meet our newest members (L-R) Sis StacyAnn Cunningham who joined her son Bro Gregory Brown and Bro Alee Caine in the watery grave of baptism last Sabbath after she responded to the alter call made by Pastor Carl Brooks. Sis Cunningham was wavering in the valley of indecision, but after listening to the message from Jude 24, delivered by Pastor Brooks under the caption: "Keeping Your Footing in a Crumbling World" she decided to go all the way with Jesus. Please embrace them and make them feel welcomed.

HARVEST INGATHERING OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED
OCTOBER 5, 2019

Its that time of the year again when we solicit funds for the Church's Welfare Mission. Harvest Ingathering was officially launched last Sabbath, October 5, 2019. Our Church Goal is $320,000.00. All members are being encouraged to play their part in helping the church to reach its goal early, by achieving a personal goal of at least $2,000.00. Remember also to use this opportunity to tell someone about Jesus as we seek to harvest not just funds but souls for the Kingdom. READ EJC Ingathering 2019 letter to all churches.
