Blest Be The Tie

 

Pastor Ken Webster at Lower Providence Baptist Church reports:

The Audubon Christian Fellowship (a Chinese congregation) is sharing some of our space at Lower Providence. Yesterday we had a combined worship service. For communion, Pastor Wha-Chi Wang and I presented the elements, me in English, and he in Chinese. To say that it was an awesome morning of worship and fellowship would be an understatement. After communion, we joined hands around the sanctuary and sang the first verse of Blessed Be the Tie That Binds with the lyrics projected in Chinese. To hear it with the combined voices and languages was super powerful. We’ve done this a couple of times in the past, but with the inclusion of communion, it was truly special.”

Kennywood '24

 

It was Kennywood Day for ABCOPAD!! Pastor Felicia Brock did an amazing job organizing the event, and everyone wore a huge orange dot sticker to connect us through out the park. Weather was great, with a break in the heat; and with 146 tickets sold it was an amazing time with the lines not too long and the food just right to start the day. Thank you ABCOPAD for underwriting the event with the grants to bring our associations and churches together.

Picnic Time

 

It was one hot Sunday afternoon when the Ten Mile Association had their summer picnic. Around 75 people braved the heat for a catered lunch. There were 6 churches represented from the association. All enjoyed the water games, bounce house, sidewalk chalk. It was a great time to spend time just hanging out, catching up with one another and laughing together.
