5. Caring for the Temple (The Body)
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, “What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 1 Corinthians 6:19 tells us our bodies are God's temple.

We are given one body, and it is the dwelling of the Holy Spirit. It is our personal responsibility to take care of it and use it to the maximum for the glory of God. We come together as the Body of Christ to grow spiritually at the house of God. It facilitates ministry and should be used wisely and maintained properly for the glory of God. We Desire to Grow Deeper in caring for the Temple. With your support and with God’s blessing in 2025 • We will commit to eating healthier, exercising, and stopping bad habits with the Lord's help. • We will be more selective in what we watch, read, and how we invest our energy and efforts. • We will practice the principles of holiness in all manners of our lives by practicing moderation. This summer we will establish an Extreme Makeover Campaign! Our focus for the summer is to get rid of unwanted weight— that is the weight of debt, spiritual chains and even physical weight that holds us back from where God has called us to be. Our focus will lie in three areas:
1. Financial 2. Spiritual 3. Physical
We will put an action plan in place to facilitate this campaign. In 2025, We Will Grow as a Church in Caring for the building
