Bishop John leads very powerful and informative "spirit filled" Bible Study, every Tuesday evening from 6:30 to 8:30. It is open to all Christians who are "hungry" for the Word of God. There are no charges or donations accepted. The Bible say's in Matt. 10:8 "Freely Received ...Freely Given". Holy Spirit who is the teacher, does not charge a priest, bishop, pastor or evangelist for the "spiritual" knowledge that He give us priests, bishops, pastors, and evangelists, etc., so who are we to charge others for the teaching from the Word of God lessons that we present to our Bible Study classes! FREELY RECEIVED....FREELY GIVEN....amen!
