Anniversary Service

On Sunday, we celebrated First Baptist Church Meaford's 125th anniversary. It was a wonderful service. My other congregation, Woodford Baptist Church, joined us in the celebration. We had special music by Wendy Porter and Stan Porter shared from God's Word. Stan spoke on "Do You Believe Enough to Believe?" from Acts 12:1-19. Stan challenged us on the idea of prayer. He spoke against the idea of prayer as the arm that moves the hand of God but did speak of the power of prayer. Prayer does not manipulate God but we should not be surprised when we that prayer changes things in our lives and we see God at work. It was a good and encouraging message. It was a great time of celebrating First Baptist Church's ministry in Meaford and we look forward to many more years of ministry.
