Fall Theme
Back to the Basics
 
Throughout the remaining months of 2015 our Pastor will focus his messages on the Basic Essentials of our faith. There are four absolute necessities (functions) for the local church. Getting back to the basics is a way for our church to strengthen the foundation of our ministry here in Pensacola. Don't miss these exciting and challenging messages!
