Empowered Kingdom Growth Seek First the King and His Kingdom

Empowering Kingdom Growth is a call for individual believers

of The People’s Community Baptist Church to renew their passion for the Lord Jesus and the reign of His

Kingdom in their hearts and families.

Consequently, God can and will forge a spirit of spiritual movement marked by holy living,

sacrificial service, and global witness.

We continue to pray for the fresh wind of God’s spirit to blow through our congregation, renewing our hearts,

healing our wounds, forming our character in the likeness of Christ, filling us with spiritual power, and moving us

to empower kingdom growth.

THE MESSENGER

We ask that you kindly refrain from eating and drinking in the Sanctuary.

Please silence your cell phone before entering the Sanctuary. Thank you.
