We thank God today for your presence in worship. Whatever the reason for you coming, we remain convinced that your presence here today is an act of providence and not an accident. It is our prayer, hope and expectation that you will experience the presence and power of the living Christ as you worship in this sanctuary. May your spiritual needs be met and your soul be uplifted as you join with us in fellowship, prayer, song and the preached Word of God. We are of the definite persuasion that the preaching of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ can, and will make a difference, if one is open to the movement of the Holy Spirit.

If you have a church home, we trust you will return to your place of spiritual nurture with an even great determination to live for Christ. If you are without a Christian fellowship, we would ask that you seriously and prayerfully consider Emmanuel Temple Church. We are a people who love the Lord and our guests and our visiting friends. We would be delighted to have you as a part of our church family and that with us, you might spiritually mature and become the person Christ wants you to be.

As you worship within the confines of this sacred sanctuary may you know beyond the shadow of a doubt that …”Surely the Lord is in this place.” Genesis 28:16.

Rev. Dr. James E .Markham
