You are always friends and family at Four Holes!
WELCOME HOME!
“Take Courage!” It is a fact that we continue to experience many
“uncertainties” in the days we find ourselves in. But, we must
understand that through these “challenges”, we can somewhat
identify with the “anxieties” God’s people felt during the time of
our Savior’s birth. The people were both “oppressed” and
“depressed”….everyone was impacted in some way. For 400 hundred
years, God did not speak to His people in the form of the written
Word or prophecy. Many had lost all hope that the Messiah would
ever come. Many thought God had indeed forsaken and forgotten them.
But, just as it is for us, nothing could be further from the truth!
Out of the “coldest” spiritual “darkness” came a “new light”…
A Savior is Born….To You! No matter the hardship or heartache,
we must dedicate ourselves to a greater awareness of the importance
of sharing God’s wonderful grace and goodness with others! We
cannot let Covid-19 override John 3:16! Take heart! Know that in
all things at all times, you have a Savior Who “can” when the world
“can’t”; Who “will” when the world “won’t”; Who “is” working when
the world “isn’t”. This Christmas season, let’s stand together in
unity and love as a church family like never before! Let us not
“stress” over “things”...it simply is not pleasing to God. Jesus
did not come for the “presents” under the tree. He came for His
“presence” to abound in you and me! Wishing You All A Very Blessed
and Merry Christmas!
WE WILL PERSERVERE TOGETHER SOON! Much Love In Christ! PG

THE G.A.P. MINISTRY
“GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS”
On a starry night in Bethlehem, Je-sus, our Messiah, came to
this Earth to take away the sins of all mankind. This was planned
from the begin-ning of creation. There was no one else that could
carry out God’s re-demptive plan but Jesus; because He was perfect,
pure, without blemish, knowing no sin Himself. He obeyed His Father
and followed through with God’s plan to offer salvation to all who
would believe in His Son. It was and is the greatest act of love
every carried out! Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior?
He came for you and me, that starry night in Bethlehem! God word
says: “Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through Him
forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and through Him everyone
who believes is freed from all things, from which you could not be
freed through the Law of Moses.” Acts 13:38-39 (NAS) Remember to
pray for each other and the needs that surround us lo-cally and
worldly. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
From our hearts to yours, The G.A.P. Ministry
