FINLEY FACTS</h3>
Finley Temple is a progressive Church that is on the move for God
with the motto "A Good Church becoming better by the power of
the Holy Ghost". Our Mission Statement is " The Mission of the Finley Temple Church is to be a place of Worship, where Men,Women and Children may come and perfect, mature and nurture in the callings and gifts that God has given each of them." We are endeavouring to be about our Father's
business.We are expanding our church ministry into the community
in order to reach the lost at any cost.Up until this past year,we had
sponsored a dinner for the occupants of the homeless shelter and the least fortunate in our immediate community where our church is located, in
addition to providing clothes, toys and games for the children.We
have provided dinner for a women crisis center, both of these were
done on Christmas Eve. But due to reconstruction and realignment of the streets surrounding our Church, we sponsored several families for both Thanksgiving and Christmas instead of the Dinner.
We have added a Praise and Worship Team to help lead us into the presence of the LORD during our time of Worship.This has been a welcome infusion during the Sunday Morning Worship Services. We also have an Intercessory Prayer Team that meets on Saturday Mornings at 10:00 a.m. and the LORD has being doing some marvelous moving through these Prayer Warriors who have dedicated themselves to this labour of love and sacrifice. Our church has been tremendously and spiritually blessed as a result and our services have taken on a whole new direction and atmosphere. Our young ladies formed a Praise Dance Team, called Divine II and have ministered during several services and the Lord has used them in a special way. This ministry has grown to include the chilren forming a Praise Dance group as well and are known as DivinePraz and are performing every other Fourth Sunday during the Worship Service. We are praying that the Lord will continue to bless these young people in their service to the Lord. We participated in the Annual Walk for Life and the Annual Twenty Mile Bikathon sponsored by the State Youth Department. Though we are not large numerically, we are using what we have to make a difference in the community in which we we live, to give hope and let our lights shine, that men and women will see Jesus and be set free and saved. Our Women Ministries recently celebrated their Fourth Royal Women Summit with a two-day program that truly was Holy Ghost filled and ordered by the Lord and as a result of this celebration the Lord has birthed another area of their ministries to be called Chosen Royal Women Ministry(CRWM) that will deal with the various issues in the lives of Women as they strive to mature and operate in the gifts of the Holy Ghost. Another goal to minister to the hurtings and sufferings that women are experiencing and point them to Jesus who is the Balm in Gilead.The Women also host a Retreat in September that deal with these areas. The Men's Fellowship has started to serve breakfast every Sunday morning before Sunday School and is now currently feeding 40 to 60 men and women every every Sunday morning. In the past two years,we have been blessed to have eight Minsters and four Aspiring Missionaries to either accept or reaffirm their callings to the gospel ministry:Ernest Brown, Melvin Champion, Grant Clinton, Joseph Jackson, Mark Jones, Michael Jones, Melvin Jones, Anthony Shackleford,Daisy McAllister,Angela Brown,Richetta Alexander and Denise Champion. We also ordained three Deacons.Our church also partnershiped with the Second Baptist Church and other churches in their NuFaith Initiative to help meets the needs of The Senior Citizens in the Community by volunteering to help pay their bills, cutting their lawns, painting the homes,providing transportation to the grocery stores and other shopping needs or just providing companionship. This project is in it's infancy, but we are looking forward to the challenge and this labour of love.The Lord is doing marvelous things and it is marvelous in our eyes, To God be the Glory. We added the Drama Ministry and the young people will be presenting a skit or plays throughout the year. We also reorganized and added auxillaries and committees to help carry out the ministry and vision of our Pastor for the Church. Pray for us that we help carry out the Vision that the Lord has given our Pastor and continue to say "Yes Lord" to His will, His Way and His Word.
