JUNE FIFTH SUNDAY MEETING
"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they shall be filled." Matthew 5:6.
In June 2002, in Paris, Texas, a new meeting house for Mt. Paran Primitive Baptist Church was dedicated for the honor and glory of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We are reminded daily of His bountiful blessings. We are at peace. Nine new members have come seeking a home away from the world. Many with serious health problems have been restored to a better life. There are too many blessings to count.
We are again planning a June fifth Sunday meeting, the 27th, 28th, 29th of June, 2003. We extend a hearty invitation to all who can be with us. We pray the Lord will direct ministers to come with a message for us.
Services will begin Friday night, June 27, and continue with services on Saturday morning, afternoon and night, and on Sunday morning. Meals will be served beginning on Friday evening.
Motels are available and we are happy to have you stay in our homes. Electrical outlets are available on the church grounds for campers.
Please plan to be with us and pray for those who gather there. May God bless each of you as you meet weekly in His Name.
Our location is 580 19th St SW, [4 blocks south of Hwy 82]
