Comebackability.

“The doctors said I probably wouldn’t live very long….”  

Our founding pastor, the late Rev. Julius Sasportas, would often share the story of his fragile start in life. But he defied the odds and lived for over 90 years.

Rev. Sasportas’ experience is a metaphor for the Co-op City Baptist Church.

We’ve had to scrape, sacrifice and fight for everything. Although we’ve been knocked down many times, by God’s grace, we have never been KNOCKED OUT.

Any day now, cranes will arrive on the site, and the “digging” will begin!

Our new church edifice will include a state-of-the-art facility to house a comprehensive youth education and recreational program.

But, we can do more things faster for our kids if we’re not in debt. Working in the red is why many large community-based projects shut down. And we will not fail these kids! We need to earn $100,000 in a year.

Kindly donate, and share this link through social media so others can join this effort.

It’s easy to say you want our kids to excel in math, reading, technology and science, but will you actively support such an outcome?

Even if you don’t know us, please do this **(seriously)** …

Pray over your credit card. Then make your donation as a love offering to God. He will bless you for being a blessing to children.  Thank you!

We Need Jesus

by Rev. Dr. Sheldon E. Williams

Sermon for Sunday August 5, 2018

Scripture: 1 John 2:1-2

Text: 1 John 2:2

Theme: We Need Jesus

This sermon speaks about our need for an Advocate before God. It tells us how Jesus is the the only one who is qualified to go before God on our behalf. How Jesus is the propitiation for our sins.  (sacrifice, covering, a satisfaction, a payment, an appeasement for sin)

We invite you to come and worship with us. We begin our summer hours this Sunday. We will only have one service which will begin at 9:00am.

Come and worship with us and receive the blessing that God has waiting for you.
