My Jesus knows just what I need

Oh yes! He knows just what I need

He satisfies and every need supplies

Yes, He knows, just what I need

We are SEATED for THE LESSONS.

Proverbs 9:1-6 Nicholas Kuklok

Wisdom has set her table. She has sent out invitations, saying, “All who are hungry come to me: eat my bread, and drink my wine, for you shall walk in the way of truth and light.”

Psalm 34 Brandon Padama

Ephesians 5:15-20 Sherilyn Padama

Make the most of the time you have left, for when you’re filled with the Spirit, you do not need to become intoxicated. Singing psalms or hymns of praise is uplifting: for when you sing with your heart and soul, you are filled with a spirit of joy and thanksgiving!

We STAND for the Proclamation of the GOSPEL.
