The Next Generation

God has permitted the Mount Moriah Temple Baptist Church to endure 100 years of history from 1919 to 2019 which included: 2 World Wars, A Great Depression in the 1930's, Jim Crow, the Civil Rights struggle in the 1960’s, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s and Robert Kennedy’s assassination in 1968, The Vietnam War in the 1970’s and the 9/11 terroristic attacks on the World Trade Center and other locations within our country in 2001.

Yet, Through it all God has “kept the doors of Mount Moriah open” We still remain, “steadfast unmovable always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord”

Today, as we prepare for the next 100 years, we need to set in motion and ask God’s blessings to assist and equip us for “The Next Generation”. The Apostle Paul says it best in 1 Corinthians 2:9, “Eye have not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” Praise the Lord and God Bless us all…
