Baptism is one of the fundamentals of Christianity. We had 3 weeks of teaching on baptism at the Alexander site.

Last week Wednesday, October 14th was the third time that Power House kids were involved. This is the second time that Alexander was involved in the kids baptism.

What an awesome opportunity to connect with families after the baptism. Francis Moore who is 16 years old has been going to Power House for years. Francis  was very happy to be able to have the opportunity to be baptized. She had her Aunt, two cousins and a friend come to watch her as she was baptized.

Power House is a wonderful place where kids are able to receive Jesus and grow and develop their walk with Christ. We are blessed to be able to offer baptism to the kids. Sometimes there’s kids who would like to get baptized through Power House but because of various reasons may not be able to. We are in prayer that whole families be saved and get to be baptized together. What an incredible thought…Jesus through the
Power House Ministry….
Restoring hope to not only a child but to a community.

There is only one true and living God!

This week at Power House we were teaching a lesson with this title. We do believe that there is only one true and living God and the only way to Him is through Jesus.

At the Power House sites we encounter diversity in more than just race. We get to minister and show the love of Jesus and share that Jesus is the only way to the Father. We always hope that as we do this we are showing this truth in a way that Jesus would. We are the body of Christ reaching out to the world around us.

Many times the body of Christ may get a bad name and offend a culture before even reaching them. We are in hope that at Power House, as the truth is told hearts are prepared by the Holy Spirit for conversion to happen.

The simple truth is this the Bible is the infallible truth, it’s the living word of God. We can’t deny this as believers. It’s our job to be vessels for the Holy Spirit to use to share the love of God. That truth that is the way if we yield and always do it Gods way, then victory is ours!

Psalm 115

1 Not to us, O LORD, not to us
but to your name be the glory,
because of your love and faithfulness.

2 Why do the nations say,
“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in heaven;
he does whatever pleases him.

4 But their idols are silver and gold,
made by the hands of men.

5 They have mouths, but cannot speak,
eyes, but they cannot see;

6 they have ears, but cannot hear,
noses, but they cannot smell;

7 they have hands, but cannot feel,
feet, but they cannot walk;
nor can they utter a sound with their throats.

8 Those who make them will be like them,
and so will all who trust in them.

9 O house of Israel, trust in the LORD—
he is their help and shield.

10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD—
he is their help and shield.

11 You who fear him, trust in the LORD—
he is their help and shield.

12 The LORD remembers us and will bless us:
He will bless the house of Israel,
he will bless the house of Aaron,

13 he will bless those who fear the LORD—
small and great alike.

14 May the LORD make you increase,
both you and your children.

15 May you be blessed by the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

16 The highest heavens belong to the LORD,
but the earth he has given to man.

17 It is not the dead who praise the LORD,
those who go down to silence;

18 it is we who extol the LORD,
both now and forevermore.
Praise the LORD.
