Love on the Move Opportunity Berrien County Department of Health and Human Services Director, Emersond Jean-Baptiste, has a challenge to every church in Berrien County to find ways to be a cornerstone in impacting the lives of children and families. There are 60 foster homes in our county and over 200 kids in foster care. This is a great opportunity to make a "Love on the Move" difference in the life of a child. Reach out to me and together with Emersond we can discuss ways to do exactly that.

Offering for July 16, 2022 Pioneer Operating Budget 2 Kings 4:7 She went and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.” We worship the God who makes promises and provides instructions. Our Bible text
describes the initiative of a widow after she has experienced a miracle, a room full of jars with oil. She returned to Elisha to express gratitude. Then, the prophet spoke these final words to her: “Live on what is Left!” These words stand as a promise about the sufficiency of God’s provision. She does not have to fear for her future. They are also an instruction not to live on borrowed resources. Previously, her family contracted a huge debt which resulted in painful consequences. Elisha’s departing advice was for her to manage wisely. The Lord does not only perform miracles, but He also teaches us how to use our blessings. Read More
