From The Bishop’s Hea

We are approaching the halfway point of the year. Climbing this mountain has been an experience. In the beginning, I was focused on reaching the top. Now I realize that every cliff and plateau have been and will be a lesson. It’s not enough just to reach the top; it’s discovering so much along the way. At present, I feel as though I am being taught in many ways. The pain is in my body, my mind is full, my spirit is engulfed in God’s presence, and I live by faith more than ever. So many things are coming at me from every direction, yet I have great peace and see clearer spiritually than ever before.

       As I watch many of you and how you’ve grown in God, I see your strength and how you’ve matured in knowledge and wisdom. There is unity in our body, a desire to stand together as one. We have not yet arrived, but we will. Most ministries are getting stronger, and some are headed for change. Satan has already tried to divide and conquer, but failed. As God instructed Nehemiah, we build with one hand, and we fight with the other.

     There were many beautiful ministry moments this past month: National Day of Prayer, Mother’s Day, Lil’ Angels, and the men’s road trip. This month, there will be much more. Everything we do, we point to the cross. Of course, we want to help people every way we can. God wants to put smiles on faces, but more than that, He wants to save and heal them all. Are you ready for the month of June? I hope so, because it’s here. You are a part of something wonderful. Get involved. Help reach this city and the world. Keep climbing the mountain.

                                           In His service and yours,

                                           With all my Heart,

                                           Love,

                                           Bishop Conard
