Changed Lives Open School Doors in Jacksonville — Spring 2019

We finished up 2018 with several showings of the “Greatest Showman” production in our Arena ministry as well as a Christmas Edition in December. Each night we saw around 470 people in attendance and between the outreaches and performances we saw

New converts in Jacksonville 35 people respond and give their lives to Jesus Christ! God truly blessed our efforts and we are so grateful for these precious souls!

In December God also opened a door in the local high school in which our Rap Group was able to perform a concert, testify and pull an altar call in which we saw 54 souls saved. This has opened up doors to do the same in various other local high schools in our area and we plan on doing two more concerts before the end of the school year.

For New Year’s Eve we had a “Thanks for the Memories” event in which our video ministry put together several clips of people in different ministries. This spanned from the early years of when the church was pioneered to the present day. That night we also had many testimonies of those that have come into the church and been saved over the years. This really stirred our church to continue in the vision.

We kicked off 2019 with Friday Night in home Bible Studies called the “Family Project.” Through this God has really been helping people to understand God’s design for the family. We also started a single Men’s class for ages 18 to 25 on Biblical Manhood to help our young men really understand in this generation what it means to be a man and to have Godly character. These men were stirred to start outreaching on their own during certain nights of the week. On the first oute, Florida church reach a young man got saved, started coming out to the young men’s class, and has been coming out faithfully. He was recently water baptized.

In January, we also started a sixweek New Believer’s class in which we saw 31 new believers graduate. On a recent Sunday Night Baptism service we had 23 folks make a public profession of their faith and be water baptized.

Starting in January we also dedicated our Sunday evening services to a “Revelation Revealed” sermon series where Pastor Meyer has really been challenging the congregation to be ready and stay ready for the return of Christ! Wednesday night services have been dedicated to a sermon series on “Worship” where the congregation 9 has really been helped to understand what true worship is and how we have a part to play in creating an atmosphere where God can come down.

Just this last service we talked about the Shekinah Glory and God showed up in a tangible way. We say 10 – 12 new believers filled with the Holy Ghost. We are continuing to believe God for services that are anything but routine where God comes down in a special and tangible way.

In February, we partnered with our two newest pioneer works by outreaching and helping facilitate concerts in their cities. There were a total of 20 people saved and visitors out to their Sunday services.

Just recently our Assistant Pastor and Base Ministry leader was able to meet with the Commander on our local Navy Base. We were given an open door to do concerts, Bible studies and outreaches on the base and the Commander stated that he wanted our church to be the representation of the Gospel on the military base!

We are so grateful for all that God has been doing. Please pray for Jacksonville, Florida as we continue in the vision and ask God’s continued wisdom to help us take advantage of these effectual open doors and reap a mighty harvest for Jesus!
