FROM THE PASTOR
Church Family,
What a joy it is to be on the ground and
serving the Lord again in Union City, TN. Sunday
was an exciting time of worship and fellowship at
Second Baptist Church. I pray that you are as excited as I am about
this coming year of ministry. I want to encourage you to continue
praying for our family over the next month as we complete our
transition here. If you haven’t been in Sunday School lately, this is
a great time to get reconnected. Joining and attending a class is one
of the greatest helps to your Christian growth. Studying God’s
Word, fellowshipping, prayer and accountability are essential
disciplines that Sunday School helps aid. On Sunday evening we
will continue examining the 7 Churches of Revelation, and on
Wednesday nights, after prayer we will walk verse by verse
through the Book of Galatians. I look forward to seeing you this
Sunday and ask that you come with three things: your Bible, a
friend, and a spirit of expectation.
For His Glory,
Pastor Justin
