House of Prayer Hinesville
House of Prayer Hinesville has proved itself to be a stellar church to the On Fire Missions board of directors. House of Prayer is sometimes known by its abbreviated acronym HOPCC. The church is active in a full range of ministries. This article will look at this dynamic children’s choir ministry at the Georgia State Capital, nursing home ministry, and quality youth programs. On Fire Missions is dedicated to rekindling a zeal for missions! And we at On Fire Missions are sure that this missionary blog’s features will do just that!
Children’s Choir singing event at the Georgia State Capital
House of Prayer Hinesville has an exemplary children’s choir. On Sep 11, 2015, the children’s choir sang inside the State Capital of Georgia, in Atlanta, GA. It was on the memorial of Sep 11, 2001, terrorist attack on New York City, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania. After the attack, America united in prayer and support for the victims of the terror attack. America will never forget the sacrifice and valor of those who either gave their lives or risked their lives to save others and preserve the precious freedoms of religion that are sacred to America! On Fire Missions recognizes those churches and mission organizations that continue to support the first responders through prayer, singing, and worship. The children’s choir has exemplified that caliber of ministry. The Bible says in Matthew 21:16, “Do you hear what these children are saying? they asked him. Yes, replied Jesus, have you never read, From the lips of children and infants you, Lord, have called forth your praise?” (NIV) The children’s choir from HOPCC has also sung in Chicago, New York City, and the Nation’s mall in Washington DC. The children’s choir is one of the many great youth ministries that the church offers for today’s youth.
House of Prayer Hinesville Nursing Home Ministry
House of Prayer Hinesville, GA, has a wonderful nursing home ministry. Members of the church visit the elderly regularly in the local area. They have Bible studies, worship services, and one on one fellowship. There are times that the children’s choir sing for the elderly at the nursing home. It is a blessed time for everyone involved. The Bible says in Psalms 127:3, “Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court.” NIV The elderly look forward to the visits, and they love it when the children’s choir sings for them. The Nursing Home ministry is a great outreach toward the elderly in showing them that they are appreciated and loved. There have been times that family members of the elderly in the nursing homes have reached out to House of Prayer Hinesville with thankfulness and appreciation for their time spent at the Nursing Home. Only eternity will tell the impact that these types of ministries have had on the elderly’s lives. On Fire Missions is glad to report on Nursing Home ministries because missions are important to both the young and old. Missions are all about giving. It is all about reaching out and touching someone with the Love of Jesus. You may never see that person again, but a seed of hope was planted in their heart, and in the process of time, that seed of hope can reap the fruit of a transformed life! All missions are important! And On Fire Missions hopes that these articles, pictures, and testimonies will rekindle a zeal for missions in your heart!
Quality Christian upbringing
House of Prayer Hinesville gets a star from the On Fire Missions board of directors for its excellent youth ministry. The church has an outstanding vision among its members of guiding and developing the youth into model Christians. The results have been astounding; some teenagers, upon reaching adulthood, have entered the Christian ministry and have been fruitful in their works. After maturing into adulthood, many others have remained faithful to the Christian faith, either working in the secular work field or participating in the missions of the church. One primary key for the youth ministry is living a balanced life, promoting spiritual life, balancing it with fun, activities, and allowing kids to be kids. Many adult volunteers take the children on church retreats to zoos, parks, aquariums, coastal beaches, historic landmarks, and mountain retreats in the Appalachian Mountains. The children have a blast, they can have fun, enjoy themselves, mature, learn and grown, and have experiences that will last a lifetime. While at the same time enjoying youth devotions, Christian fellowship, and good prayer meetings. On Fire Missions is impressed with the devotion of the adult volunteers from the church that genuinely cares and nurtures the youth. The principle of the balanced life principle is exactly what is needed in all youth ministry programs.
In conclusion, this outstanding church continues to stand out as a mission-minded church and rekindles a zeal for missions in the elderly and the youth. Missions are the heartbeat of Christianity. The early church started with a passionate zeal to reach out to everyone they encountered. This mission-minded group fits into that same zeal and passion that is read about in the scriptures.
