Pentecost 2017: "Let's Keep the Spirit"--- Bishop Shelvis R. Green, Sr.
Scriptures: Ephesians 4:1-6
4 1I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with long-suffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
