"Your Past and God's Promises"

Welcome to the Morning Worship at College Heights Baptist on April the twelfth, 2026 service begins at 10:30 AM Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him. Praise the Lord with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. (or guitar!) Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.
