From the Pastor
Abundant Joy Christian Fellowship's purpose is equipping the saints to put on the whole Armor of GOD. We have to strive every day to spiritually and morally restore GOD's people to proper fellowship with HIM, through preaching, teaching and displaying, both inwardly and outwardly, the principles demonstrated in HIS Word. In Galatians 6:1, Paul tells us that we who are spiritual should restore our brothers and sisters. We accomplish this purpose by the way we live our lives daily and by reaching out to the Orange Park community, where we live and serve.

I believe that GOD has given me a vision to develop a family-oriented church that is multi-cultural in nature. Our Church will be one where anyone and everyone is welcome. I believe that everyone that enters the doors of the Church should feel comfortable in worshipping GOD and giving HIM praise.

We are in a spiritual battle on a daily basis and I want our Church to become a safe haven for all people. I believe we have to prepare people with the wisdom, knowledge and understanding of what is needed to fight the good fight of faith in this battle.

GOD has given me a revelation that we need to prove our spiritual armor. This earth is our proving ground and as believers we must know what our armor is, how it works, how to put it on and how it is used in relation to the other pieces of armor. Satan has schemes, trickery and evil devices that we have to be on constant guard against. Being a good soldier requires that we are all well trained and well equipped, so that we will have the same confidence as Joshua and Caleb in Numbers 13, knowing that no matter what the circumstances or the situation that we encounter, we are well able to overcome it.
