Wednesday Evening Adult Group
Wednesday evening at 7 pm, Pastor Terry Garrett is teaching a series entitled When Heaven Invades Earth from Pastor Bill Johnson’s book by the same title (Destiny Image Publishers). This 17 chapter series describes itself from the book’s back cover:
“Anyone can walk in the miraculous – even you! If you’ve ever wanted to live and walk in the supernatural power of God, here’s your chance.
“It is truly possible for human people to walk in the divine, and Christ came to show us the way. It is by rediscovering our true identity in Him that we can begin to move into the promises of God regarding the miraculous. Bill Johnson not only teaches the supernatural, he imparts it by changing the way we think.
If you are not walking in the miraculous, you’re living far below your birthright! By laying a carefully constructed biblical foundation for walking in the supernatural power of God, When Heaven Invades Earth provides all the equipment you need to experience miracles every day.”
“You too can move from an intellectual faith and tap into an abundance of miracle-working authority, unleashing the power of God’s glory.”
Good News Church Bookstore
The Bookstore has been restocked and relocated to better serve you. It is opened 20 minutes before and after the Sunday morning and Wednesday evening services. Watch for sales in the near future (i.e. Christmas) and for the latest books and music (a new assortment of Bibles and books have just arrived). The store manager is Shirley Dayenian and volunteer Melvin Campbell.
Women and Men
The Sunday School in the Annex have been enjoying the series, “Faith and Healing“. Diana Lancaster has been sharing her expertise on how to receive and maintain your healing. So whether you need a healing or not, you’re sure to receive a “faith boost” and be equipped to do the work of the ministry from this teaching. We encourage you to come and bring a friend. The meetings are held in the Annex Building (middle building on campus) from 9:30 – 10:30 am.
Everyone Needs Food
Please remember the church’s food bank. Many people call churchs in the Tupelo area each week with a need for food due to rising unemployment nationwide. We get such calls as well, and your generous donations of non-perishable food items or financial donations help to provide others with the hope they need that others really do care about their difficult situation.
If you would like to help oversee the organization and distribution of these items, please contact either Tommy Hudson or Pastor Terry Garrett in the church office.
DearPastor,Praise the lord,how are you and family of god. sending all the details of our Garden of life.please do pray and support us in moving forward to help all our people who are in need for very long time.
In sight of God our father ,pure and blameless religion lies in coming to the help of orphans and widows in their need and keeping oneself from the world’s corruption.James 1:27
GARDEN OF LIFE MINISTRY
Our work re started in 2007 after Ranjit Dominick my father expired,Garden of Life is our Brand name and short name of our society name (ANDHRA PRADESH BACKWARD CLASSES WEAKER SECTION AND DISABLED YOUTH WELFARE SOCIETY- REGISTERED NO-401/1987 -India)which is started in 1987.
What we are doing from past three years ?
1,About our major villages – Our villages names are NAMITILGUNTA , KESERAMPALLY(Leprosy colony) and NARAYNAPURAM is adopted by us for every child and old aged person need and for there personal and village development,here every family will have food only if they go for labor work that particular day,work is very season wise,till date they do not have major road to go to near by village ,almost 5kilometers they walk for every thing for there home needs or major medical needs,no communication from any village in rainy season because the mud road blockage,nobody can go out or come in from this village, 40% of the year they wont be having work because its farm labour work.they are very much neglected by the society and by the government only because they do not have voice to raise because they are very much poor and backward caste lowest income group in the country and the region.
2,Our major achievements is getting them a water tank from government last year after lot of fight with government we finally got it,previously they do not have water to drink,they used to drink very much unpurified water from land directly ,praise the lord now they have drinking water,2ND achievement is got them road sanctioned from government ,very soon it will be done. it happen through GARDEN OF LIFE.
3,Disadvantage of these villages?
One government school till 5th standard ,they will open only when they have higher official inspection,almost half of the year it will be closed,and every teacher who come over there or from higher caste or religion,so they do not concentrate on children development,after 5th standard if they want to study they have to travel 6 kilometers which is very un safety to all of them in any season.hostel facility is available 30 kilometers away but very un safe for any low caste or religion child to go,that’s the reason in entire country why lower caste children or families are so un developed in any thing.
4,What we are doing at these villages?
We felt children and old aged persons should be the main focus,And children have to change the future of theses villages so we are giving very good education to all the children (till 20 years )through tuition after school and college.we provide leaf shelter to all the children and give 100% education with food ,we completely take of them.first time in the village history our few children 10stardard passed with the help of us and now getting ready to go to college,till date nobody in this villages crossed 5th standard education for last 250 years of this village,it happen through GARDEN OF LIFE .
Children come to us after school at 3pm and go back at 8am next day,few children who have families locally will go to home then school and come back to Garden of life.
5,Here in these villages if they have any old aged person who have illness or a widow they put them side from the house ,wait till they die for months,years or days.WHY THEY DO?any illness is became very expensive for any body,these people will not have food to eat if they do not go for work everyday,they can not save that money as that money is as less than 2$ every day work .HOW THEY CAN SPEND MONEY FOR THERE TREATMENT WHEN THEY DO NOT HAVE ,that’s the reason for years to gather they are doing the same way,it became a culture to do the same.what we do with these illness and widow people,we provide basic medications,food,clothes and request there families to provide shelter for these people as we are taking care of there illness patients needs.
6,Our leprosy colony which is at KESERAMPALLY village ,20 years back this village is build with houses by government and left with out any way for there needs,there daily job became begging,In our country leprosy affected people are been treated un touchable and kept very far from the regular society,if they come in front of you here people feel its not good for there wish.
7,What we are doing for Leprosy family’s?
We are giving education for there children through tutions and we try to give rice and oil every month ,we do lot many activities with them at public places so that people should see them like a equal human being .
