2 P1... SOUL SAVERS JOIN US FOR WORSHIP WEEKLY WORSHIP SERVICES SUNDAY 10:00 AM 8501 Jericho City and Bishop Peebles Dr. Landover, MD CHILDREN S CHURCH (AGES 3-11) MONDAY 7:00 PM INTERCESSORY PRAYER & HOLY COMMUNION Dear City of Praise Family, Life is a series of beginnings and endings. It is full of stages and chapters, stories and seasons. People come into our lives, some to stay until death do us part, but even with them comes growth and new levels. However, some are only sent on assignment to be a part of our lives for a specific but limited purpose. Some you may see again, some you won t. But either way they impact our lives like no other person can. Once that purpose is fulfilled, God moves them to their next assignment and He moves us to ours. Change is a part of life and must be embraced. It must be appreciated. Otherwise our lives would become stagnant and growth would not be possible. Sure, the end of a season can bring pain. But with it is a wonderful memory of the old season, how the people assigned to that season affected us, and how life would not have been the same without them. And right behind it, expect a brand new adventure, a new level, and new blessing, a new face or a new place in life. God bless you, Bishop Joel and Pastor Ylawnda Peebles WORD Network 6pm Office # Text COP to to stay connected to the latest news.

3 Soul Savers Mobilizing to Save Millions By: Bishop Joel Peebles Saints of COPFM, we are soldiers in the army of the Lord. And as His army we have been given an assignment to move forward with fervor and intention to bring people to Christ. We are in the last days and there is no more time for playing church. There are a lot of hurting souls out there walking in darkness and despair, not knowing that God loves them, not knowing that Jesus is the answer to all of their problems, their fears, their sickness, their heartaches and their pain. They have no idea of how easy it is to get out of that pit of despair. We know their pain. We have all been there. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). But someone cared enough to tell us about the redemptive name of Jesus. And now we have been trained for this purpose of showing others the way out. We have been made ready by sitting under powerful teaching, and by living and operating in the forgiveness and the grace of a loving God. It is time to come against the enemy that would try to hold them hostage. It is time to mobilize. Merriam-Webster gives the definition of mobilize as to come together for action and to make (soldiers, an army, etc.) ready for war. When an army mobilizes for action, it does so with a purpose. It is the assembly, preparation and equipping of forces. Strategies and logistics are laid out and the troops are organized and deployed to defeat the plans of a common enemy. Satan is not happy that we are taking action. He knows his time is short, and he will make it hard for you. He will try to make you The LORD thunders at the head of his army; his forces are beyond number, and mighty is the army that obeys his command. (Joel 2:11) fearful or uncertain, and he will try to take away your Holy Boldness. He will even try to tie your tongue or make you forget words of scripture. No matter. He can t make you forget how good God has been to you, how He healed your body and provided for you. He can t make you forget how your life has changed for the better simply because you asked Jesus to come into your life. And because of that, you are ready for battle. You are a soul saver, and your assignment is to save souls by the millions. No small feat, but no worries; God is the Commander-in-chief. The LORD thunders at the head of his army; his forces are beyond number, and mighty is the army that obeys his command. (Joel 2:11) Lion s Roar 1
