Jubilee Day

By /

To give thanks for God’s providence and the end of slavery in the United States, Tenth Church will sponsor a Jubilee Day Dinner. Let us come and join together in a time of encouragement, remembrance, and celebration. These special days included prayer meetings, songs, food, and celebrating.

From the Encyclopaedia Britannica: "The following year, on June 19, 1866, the first official Juneteenth celebrations took place in Texas. The original observances included prayer meetings and the singing of spirituals, and celebrants wore new clothes as a way of representing their newfound freedom." (The Editors of Encyclopedia Britannica. "Juneteenth." Encyclopedia Britannica, June 17, 2025. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Juneteenth.)

We will enjoy several spirituals, sung by Tenth's own Suzannah Waddington.
We will enjoy Ethiopian food, prepared by Tenth's own Elizabeth Bekele.
We will recognize those who are serving or have served in our nation's military. Dress uniforms are welcomed and encouraged.
We will play Jubilee Day Lingo, a bingo like game with prizes.
We will end our time together in prayer.

All are welcome and encouraged to attend! Invite your friends and neighbors!

Join us for the Local Ministry Conference, featuring Rico Tice, Evangelist at Christianity Explored Ministries and previous Senior Minister of Evangelism at All Souls, Langham Place, London.

The Conference theme, Bold for Jesus: Sharing the Gospel with Confidence, is focused on helping Christians grow in confidence and faithfulness as they share the good news of Jesus with others. Through biblical teaching and practical training, we will think together about how to speak about Christ clearly and lovingly in everyday relationships—with family, friends, co-workers, classmates, and neighbors.

Whether you find evangelism encouraging or challenging, this conference is meant to strengthen you in the gospel and help you take simple, faithful steps in sharing Christ where God has placed you.

Rico Tice's sermon at our 11am Worship Service on May 17 will be evangelistic in nature, so please invite your non-believing friends to attend. There is a free lunch after the service where a time for Q&A about the gospel and Christianity will be held.
