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!

You Can’t Do It On Your Own

by Rev. Dr. Sheldon E. Williams

This passage is sermon to be preached on Sunday July 29. 2018

Scripture: 1 John 1:1-9

Text: 1 John 1:9

Theme: You Can’t Do It On Your Own

There are many people who believe that without Christ we are not totally sinful and depraved.
a. This is a deception.
b. The truth is not in us.

2. The truth is found in verse 9, we must confess our sins.
a. Because God is faithful and just.
b. Because God forgives.

We pray that you will come and worship with us. Our services are held on Sunday Mornings at                        8:00 & 11:00 am.

Please come and receive the blessing that God has waiting for you.
