🌟 FEATURED STORY: A Season of Renewal at Greater Victory Temple
As fall settles in, Greater Victory Temple is entering a new season of revival, reflection, and renewal. From heartfelt Sunday worship to midweek Bible study, God’s Spirit continues to move throughout our sanctuary.
Families are being strengthened, souls are being restored, and the community is being reached through faith-driven action.
Join us each Sunday morning at 12:00 PM and Wednesday evening at 6:00 PM as we continue to declare victory in Jesus Christ.
This season, we’re focusing on our theme:
“Rebuild. Restore. Renew.” – Nehemiah 2:18
🍞 Community Outreach: Feeding the Body and Soul
Our Outreach Ministry recently hosted a Community Food Distribution right outside the church on Prospect Avenue, serving dozens of families in need.
Through God’s grace, volunteers came together to share groceries, prayer, and encouragement with our neighbors.
“It’s more than food—it’s fellowship,” said one of our volunteers. “We’re feeding hearts as much as we’re feeding stomachs.”
Stay tuned for our next outreach date and learn how you can get involved by visiting the Contact Us page.
Spiritual Reflection: Turns the Impossible into I’m Possible
Reflection
There are seasons when mountains seem unmovable, doors appear closed, and dreams feel distant. Spiritual reflection invites us to pause and remember the moments when God made a way before — when healing followed heartbreak, strength rose from sorrow, and provision arrived just in time.
Reflection Thought:
“Faith is seeing light with your heart when all your eyes see is darkness.”
🕊️ Join us this Sunday as we continue to lift up the name of Jesus — the center of it all.
We believe that every person has endless possibilities through Jesus Christ. Our church is a place where the broken find healing, the lost find direction, and the believer finds strength.
