A MESSAGE FROM PASTOR JOHN
There is more to a living relationship with God.
In 1985, while attending the Catholic Church, I began to sense deep in my heart that there had to be more to a relationship with God than what I was experiencing. I was grateful for my foundation of faith, yet I carried a growing hunger and desire to truly know Him in a personal and intimate way.
I longed to understand God not only through tradition, but through a living, daily relationship with the Father, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Not knowing exactly where to begin, I simply began seeking, asking the Lord to reveal Himself more fully to me.
That search led me to a Spirit-filled church centered on the Word of God, where I began to develop a strong biblical worldview and a deeper walk with the Lord. It was there that my relationship with my Heavenly Father truly came alive.
If you find yourself sensing that there is something more, if you are hungry to grow deeper in your relationship with God, I invite you to visit The Faith Center a few times and prayerfully consider if this is where the Lord desires to plant you. May the Lord lead and guide you by His Spirit.
- Pastor John
