New Horizon Baptist Church shining the Light on Lincoln Avenue…

Creating New Horizons in People’s Lives.

Summer has begun and we hope that you enjoy every minute of it.

Sunday service was held at the C.K. Newsome Center.  Pastor Brown preached on baptism.  He highlighted the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist and that of the Israelites when they passed through the Red Sea.

Here are some pictures of those who were present at the service.

The doors of the church were opened.  Two individuals responded to the invitation and joined the church.

Afterwards the church moved to the McFarland Baptist Church on Lincoln Avenue to baptize the candidates.  McFarland is located just up the block from the New Horizon Baptist Church.

After the baptismal ceremony  we adjourned to the fellowship hall where the McFarland Baptist Church had prepared a meal.

An overhang to the side Chapel door has been added to the New Horizon Baptist Church building.

We are looking forward to the time soon when we can occupy Phase I of the construction.   In the meantime we will continue to hold services at the C.K. Newsome Center located at Heidelbach and Walnut at 11:00 AM.

The Savior is risen!  May we continue to know Him in the power of His Resurrection. 

Once again Sunday service was held at the C.K. Newsome Center while the church awaits being able to move to its new home on Lincoln Avenue.  

Pastor Brown took his text from Acts chapter 21 and spoke on staying in the ship and you shall be saved.  Many storms may come and go but if we stay in the Old Ship of Zion we shall be saved.  It has landed many a thousand as the old gospel song stated, get on board get on board.
