This week Christians around the world celebrate Pentecost Sunday.
Pentecost is celebrated on the fiftieth day after Easter Sunday; the Greek
word pentecoste means “fiftieth day.” This signifies the descending of the
Holy Spirit and the birth of the church. God, The Holy Spirit as the third person in the trinity, continues to guide us, teach us, convict us, and transform us.
Here, Pastor Nadeem takes time to pause the sermon series “Apocalypse” and speaks to the five characteristics of a renewed church that we learn from the first century church; these characteristics are laid out in the book of Acts 2:42-47. Join us to hear more about these characteristics and how being a part of a renewed and growing church relates to each of us on an individual level.

- Sermon From: Revelation 6:1-8
We continue our sermon series “APOCALYPSE” and in this sermon entitled “Counterfeit Jesus,” I will focus Revelation 6:1-8. In this text God shows the apostle John four horses, also known as the horses of the apocalypse. The rider on a white horse is imitating Jesus pretending as if he is bringing peace on earth. But we meet a counterfeit Jesus. The text teaches that we meet the forces in the world that may look or sound like they are true and from God but, they are from Satan. God warns us to be on our guard of false prophets, pastors, their teachings, and the worldly things that are so deceptive. Tune in to hear more about how to identify these forces and confront them.
Our Beliefs
United Methodists profess the historic Christian faith in God, incarnate in Jesus Christ for our salvation and ever at work in human history in the Holy Spirit. Living in a covenant of grace under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, we participate in the first fruits of God's coming reign and pray in hope for its full realization on earth as in heaven.
Our History
We began as a society under the Methodist Protestant Church. The society included the counties of Amelia, Nottoway, and Dinwiddie and was established in 1827 on land a few miles from its present location. The members quickly outgrew the building and in 1845 the new building was dedicated. The building was then moved in 1872.
Prayer Request
Please contact us at the church office to notify us of any prayer requests. Our father in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Lord, let the light of Jesus Christ, Your Son, be visible in the way I respond to all I encounter. For it is my faith and attitude that can help or hinder leading one to Christ to be saved. In Jesus’ name, Amen!!
