I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

Pastor's Weekly Update
Message from Our Senior Minister
Grace and Peace Be Unto You!
The New Year is a time for reflection and renewal. We can reflect on how God carried us through as we walk by faith in 2021. Let’s walk together! Stay faithful, trust the Lord with all things, and enjoy every day of life.
Our 2020 Theme is “Getting to Know Jesus Christ through the Psalms”, the Psalter. I encourage you to write your Psalm, starting with “The Lord is My.” Write it today, tomorrow, or throughout the month and email it to us at mail@friendshipcharlotte.org. We will review and put them on the website as an inspiration for others. Remember, the same Shepherd that provided for them ‘then’ is the same Shepherd for us ‘now.’ Follow the Lord Jesus and embrace him as your Shepherd.
Prayerfully,
~Pastor Jones
