The church is important to God. The church He established must be found blameless. However, beyond doubt there are times God’s people sin because of ignorance. And even those who have been in the faith for a long time make the same mistakes over and over because of certain weaknesses. It is necessary for God’s people while living on earth to make every effort to maintain a broken spirit and contrite heart.  The church has to go back to the basics of life. There is a need for God’s people to seek Him wholeheartedly. Jesus said that people should seek His Kingdom and righteousness and all needs shall be added to them. Jesus preached about the kingdom. He encouraged the people to value the Kingdom of God. He spoke about a kingdom that has come and the kingdom that is coming. This year is themed, “His Kingdom We Seek in 2006”.  We hope:

·        To teach God’s people on the concepts of the Kingdom

·        To encourage the people to live according to the principles of God

·        To advance the Kingdom of God through the word, worship and missions.

While we profess to be Christians, we are compelled to seek His Kingdom, His presence and His righteousness. Whether our needs be granted to us or not, our vital concern is to: passionately seek God; rediscover God’s purposes for His people; experience the refining process of God; touch the heart of the King; and to serve as extension of God’s love. As we declare that the Kingdom of God is at hand, may our speech, our actions demonstrate how much we value God in our lives.                                                                       By Wendy Gazzingan
