Youth Empowerment this Sabbath - December 5, 2020


On December 5, 2020, we are blessed to have Pastor Ron Sydney. He grew up in St. Lucia. He was called to ministry at a young age. He answered the call and went to study Theology at Canadian University College. After graduating he was called to pastor the Ephesus and Richland Churches. It wasn’t too long after his successful ministry that Pastor Ron was called to pastor the 24/7 church in Seattle Washington. Currently, Pastor Ron is serving as the lead pastor for two churches in the Detroit area, Pontiac Southside and Detroit Center. Pastor Ron loves preaching and loves sharing inspiring messages to young people. His raw authentic and transparent style allows hearers to engage with him and connect with him on another level. 
Our Youth Empowerment Weekend will focus on the theme, “Unshackled.” Join us at 11:30 AM for an empowering message from Pastor Ron and an open conversation at 4:00 PM!

The Book of Isaiah challenge people, including us, to stop just looking around and start looking up to the Lord, whom Isaiah saw "sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up" (Isaiah 6:1). In author Roy Gane's " The Book of Isaiah ", readers will get a fresh look at some of the poetry and parallelism, imagery, and contrasts, and musical rhythms that are for the symphony of the human journey through judgment and restoration.
