Ephesians 2:8-10 New Revised Standard Version

8 For by grace you have been saved

through faith, and this is not your own

doing; it is the gift of God— 9 not the

result of works, so that no one may

boast. 10 For we are what he has made

us, created in Christ Jesus for good

works, which God prepared beforehand

to be our way of life.

Karibu (Welcome in Swahili)! O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good! I am excited God has blessed us to enter into 2020. This entrance is God’s sign that God still has work for us to do, as well as God’s continuing to exhibit grace and mercy in our lives. In response to God’s loving kindness and tender mercies, we offer God our sincere worship and

uninhibited praise. I invite you to share in our life-changing engagement as practicing Christians, as we purposefully share the face of Jesus with everyone, while demonstrating God’s grace to others, without expecting anything in return. Being a disciple of Jesus Christ is our first priority. In this, we strive to make Jesus’ words applicable to our lives. In application, we not only love all of humanity, but we fight for the least cared for, as well as unapologetically declare war on educational disparities, hunger, mass incarceration, homelessness, food deserts, etc. It is our belief that the local church must lead the charge in helping change the lives of all people, and you are welcomed to join us in this fight. If you are a first time or repeat visitor, I want to take this written moment to greet you. As family we have not met before, or have met in times past, we invite you to join us on this spiritual journey of connectivity. In an effort to meet a variety of worship needs, we offer two worship services. Our 7:45 a.m. Worship and Word (1st Sundays only) is a non-traditional worship service. Our 10 a.m. Sunday Morning Glory Worship is a blending of traditional and contemporary worship. Lastly, if you are without a place to call home, we would love to be your church family of faith, and I would LOVE to serve as your Pastor! Shalom.

Dr. L. Bernard Jakes

The mission and purpose of The faith family of West Point Baptist Church is to fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus Christ, “Go ye therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (St. Matthew 28:19).” We meet this challenge through our worship, ministry and outreach.

We strive to be a Worshiping Church, seeking God in spirit and in truth.

We strive to be a Learning Church, committed to Biblical principles and spiritual dynamics.

We strive to be a Soul-winning Church, sharing our testimony of faith with all people.

We work to be a Model Church, in the spirit of the church at Philadelphia, always committed to the highest standards of excellence through prayer, tithing and Christian concern.

We work to be a Socially Conscious, Justice Seeking, and Liberation Church, aligning ourselves with the spirit of Amos, the commitment of Micah, and the proclamation of Jesus the Christ in St. Luke 4.18.

We work to be a Transformative, Life-Changing Church, meeting the needs of our brothers and sisters outside and inside the local church through life-changing ministries.

We work to be a Church Without Walls, extending God’s grace to the world, outside of the local church, through various ministries of help.

• There is one God, revealed to us as Father, Son (Jesus) and Holy Spirit.

• The Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the complete and sufficient Word of God.

• The ordinance of Baptism signifies our fellowship with the death and resurrection of Jesus the Christ.

• The Lord’s Supper commemorates Jesus’ death, confirms our faith, and renews our communion with Jesus and others believers.

The TOP LEFT is two-fold: First, the extended hands represents our Worshiping God. Secondly, the extended hand over the world represents our Serving Humanity.

The TOP RIGHT is our Star of Expectation: We are always expecting God to do greater things through us.

The BOTTOM LEFT: This is our commitment in Following the Examples of Jesus the Christ.

The BOTTOM RIGHT : This represents our being Led by the Holy Spirit.

Church-wide Fast 2020: Pastor Jakes is calling for a 21 day church-wide fast to begin January 6th, 2020 at 6 a.m. The goal of the fast is to increase our prayer life and connectivity with God, as well as to LIVE a healthier life in 2020. The fast will involve removing chicken and beef from one’s diet, all starchy foods, and substituting white grain sugar with brown sugar or raw honey. Brown rice and sweet potatoes are acceptable. Stevia is acceptable. Your fast should also include moving toward a more plant based diet. Fish is acceptable (baked or broiled). However, if you don’t or cannot eat fish, it can be substituted with chicken (baked or broiled). Absolutely no beef. Fasting is a major sacrifice. Wednesday in the Word will begin January 8th, 2020 at 6:30 p.m. Please consult your physician before participating.

January Ministerial Opportunities 12th—Presentation of Church Officers, Trustees, and Lead Servants during 10 a.m., Sunday Glory Morning Worship. 6th—27th—Church-wide Fast for 21 days beginning at 6 a.m. and concluding at 6 a.m. on the 27th. 20th—Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Observance during Sunday Morning Glory Worship. 21st— Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday (church office closed). 26th—Church-wide meeting at 10 a.m./2019 full year financial report.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of West Point’s rendition of Glenn Burleigh’s, Born to Die—A Christmas Cantata.

Rehearsals are Tuesday’s from 7—8:45 p.m., in the worship center. This will officially kickoff our “Road to 100” celebration.

Hors d'oeuvres, cake, punch, music and fun is the agenda. Also, let’s show our pastor how much we love and appreciate him by ushering him into his 45th year with gifts of love.

A Message from the Rev. Dr. L. Bernard Jakes

During this time of self isolation, please continue sheltering in place, while engaging in social distancing when having to go places deemed essential. Beloved, if a person doesn’t live with you they shouldn’t be in your home. Also, self isolation doesn’t mean you can’t go outside and get some fresh air. If you need to take a walk, please remember to stay 6ft from the nearest person. Lastly, avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth without washing your hands, and sanitize your home. These steps will aid in keeping you safe while aiding in flattening the curve. I long for the day we can re-gather in the worship center. Until then, let’s continue sharing with one another via Zoom teleconferencing, FB Live, and personal wellness checks. I love you very much.

Staying Connected Monday’s: Corporate Prayer at 6:15 p.m. via Zoom teleconference.

Wednesday’s: The “LBJ Love Hour” at 8 p.m. via FB Live and Zoom Teleconference.

Friday’s: Crowns of Wisdom teleconference fellowship.

Saturday’s: Fit for Faith Workout Virtually at 11 a.m.; Youth Gathering Virtually at 1 p.m.
