Last night we honored our 2007 High School Graduate, Phylicia McClain.
Following our 'Life Tabernacle' tradition, we presented her with a new Bible. I spoke to the youth about keeping the ultimate goal in focus as you climb the mountain called Life. She spoke for a few moments and then the church gathered around her forming a cocoon of prayer. I had her father, who is a minister, say a special prayer over her. It was a touching moment.
We had a reception following and everyone had a great time celebrating this milestone in Phylicia's life.
(l-r) Taqueria, Sis. McClain, Phylicia, Bro. McClain and PhillipThe McClain's were so appreciative and could not believe that our church would take time to do this. I believe that the family of God should celebrate and share special moments together! We knocked on this Apostolic family's door at our very first outreach Saturday. They were looking for a church to attend. Within a couple months, the whole family joined us and are a tremendous blessing! Taqueria and Sis. McClain teach our children's Sunday School class, Taqueria and Phylicia sing in the praise group, Bro. McClain helps in leading service, and Phillip does our media projection during services. We love them so much and appreciate their willingness to help, as well as their respectful support.
