NEWS FROM PASTOR BANNISTER

For the past 50 years God has allowed us to experience His greatness and power working mightily in our midst. We have been able to do this because of the labor and fruits that many people have sown into the ministry here at Canton Pentecostal Temple.

God has opened, closed and created many doors for us to go through. We face many challenges as we move forward to do work for His kingdom. We believe that everyone who becomes a child of God has been called. He has provided each of us with unique talents and abilities. It is only when we use those talents and abilities to work for God that we can truly appreciate what he has given to us. We can only get to this point of being used by God, by allowing him to control every aspect of our lives. God is the giver of many talents. If we bury our talents in the ground, God’s will cannot prosper. If we use our talents wisely, God will bless them and multiply them.

As we embark on this new adventure together, we close the book on our past 50 years, remembering all of the great things that God has accomplished in our lives and remembering all of the people that have been a great blessing to God’s work here at Canton Pentecostal Temple. Approaching this next half of a century, we wait in great anticipation of what God has in store for our family.

We promise to do our best to lead you spiritually in the direction God desires for your life. As we prepare for eternity, grow in faith and reach out in love, you are important to the success of our mission. Together, let us work for God.
