Hi! Hope this finds you and your family doing well, and enjoying the peaceful and comforting grace of our Lord.
On the third weekend of July (15, 16, 17), Antioch Primitive Baptist Church – Elder Ricky Myers and Elder Mickey Myers, Co-Pastors, hosted the annual July meeting.
(The meeting started Friday night and ended on Sunday. We attended the services on Saturday.)
Elder Hugh Sanders, pastor of Ideal Primitive Baptist Church in Petal, Mississippi, was the invited minister.
Each service was preceded by a song service, led by song leaders, and sung by the congregation “a Capella” (without musical instruments).
Saturday Morning, 07-16-2022
Eld. Hugh Sanders preached from 2 Timothy 2:19-20 on “Vessels”.
References included:
– Acts 9:15
– Acts 13:2

From this message:
– Strive to be an Honorable vs. Dishonorable vessel
– Avoid being too involved in earthly things
– Be active in the Kingdom of God
– Flee from sin to keep our “vessel” clean and honorable
– Display the good things of the Spirit
Morning services were followed by a fellowship lunch in the dining room.
Saturday Afternoon
Eld. Hugh Sanders preached on “Prayer”
References included:

– God knows what we need before we ask
Personal Note
We were very thankful for our first opportunity to visit Antioch Church.
We appreciate the kind hospitality of the church, and Bro. Hugh’s preaching.
God Bless!!
