Holy greetings to you, my brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I remain saved, sanctified, and upheld by the power of the Holy Ghost. I give honor to our General Chief Overseer, Bishop Dr. Calvin Worthem, the Assistant Overseer, Bishop Dr. Bonnie Guster, the Chief Helper, and all the officials who work tirelessly to spread the word of God and lead souls to Christ.

Saints, I thank God for the opportunity to connect with all of you once again. My thoughts and prayers are with the Pastor of Indianapolis, Trial Bishop Mary Townsend, Associate Pastor Trial Bishop Vanessa Stanford, Chairman Deacon Roosevelt Stanford, Assistant Chairman Deacon Cornelius Wortham, Deacon Simon Townsend, and the entire Indianapolis congregation. I trust that the God we serve will bless us with an even more beautiful National Headquarters than the one we had.

In these challenging and sinful times, many may come through your doors seeking salvation, as reflected in Acts 16:30: “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” When the faithful, both old and new, gather from the North, South, East, and West, ready to praise God, we will need a larger sanctuary, and God will provide us with a magnificent space to glorify Him.

I am grateful to Deacon Simon Townsend, the Chief Helpers, and the Board of Trustees. Deacon Townsend has gone above and beyond by coordinating with the Fire Marshal, insurance representatives, and others while keeping the General Overseer well-informed. We have much to be thankful for in our church officials.

At times, our natural siblings may have disagreements, but that doesn’t diminish our love for one another. As members of the Church of the Living-Jewell Dominion, we are called to support each other as brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. Let us unite behind our Indianapolis family, ready to help in any way we can; this is LOVE. Let us remember John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” May God continue to bless each of you.

All praises BE TO THE TRUE AND LIVING GOD!!!!!!
