GOSPEL HOUR

Nathein Perkins will be here for the Gospel Hour at 4:00 pm. Originally born and raised in Indiana, he and his wife Shannon have called Nashville, TN their home since 2006. Nathein served as a Youth Minister for 17 years and a Worship Minister for 9 years. In 2015, Nathein and Shannon embarked on a new journey and became founders of Ingrafted Ministries, a non-profit organiza-tion.

Their desire is to teach the Bride of Christ about God’s Appointed Times and how His Times are still ministering today. In 2016, they partnered with Mercy Collective in Nashville, TN to serve as co-pastors and are currently still serving at Mercy.

As a side job, Nathein and Shannon own their own concrete business and enjoy working together. God has blessed them with four amazing children: Taylor, Elijah, Hadassah and Avagaille.

Invite friends, family and neighbors to come enjoy this special hour of witness in song.

Take Care by Deborah Ann

Take care my friend, as you go about your day be careful who you meet

as you go along your way.

For, there’s a lot of evil, waiting for you out there

so make sure before you go to use extreme care.

Take care my friend, do not be deceived

lest your heart be hardened to what you believe.

For, the world will test you, with it wickedness

and you must not show it one once of willingness.

Take care my friend, lest from God you fall away for satan would just love . . .

to see you lead astray!
