From the desk of District Supt. Claude L. Bell,
To the Higher Ground District,
Holy Greetings,
I want to personally welcome you to our 74th Higher
Ground District meeting. It is with great excitement
and holy ghost passion we share this moment with
you, as we embark upon a mighty move of God for His
church. This is my prayer & my hope, as we endeavor
to keep the unity of the spirit and the bound of peace.
This is a great time to gather this week for a Pentecost
experience. God has equipped his church with spiritual weapons of warfare, so I take this time to encourage
you to use your weapon of Praise, of Prayer and the
Word of God that is able to conqueror all things.
God has not given his church a spirit of fear, but he has given us the spirit of love of power
and of a sound mind. In the day that we live in, it is imperative that we keep fighting the
good fight of faith and maintain a consecrated and dedicated heart to God.
Let us always remember and apply this to our everyday walk with Christ; “If we walk in the
light as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ
the Son cleanseth us from all sin.” Let us continue to tear down barriers in an ungodly
world. This is his commandment that we should believe on him, and love one another as he
loves the church.
Your Humble Servant,
Superintendent Claude L Bell

To GOD be the Glory for the things He has done! GREETINGS to
SUPT. CLAUDE BELL and The HIGHER GROUND DISTRICT.
GOD has truly been good to us another year. I give Him ALL the
Glory and Honor he is due. I will not complain about the things I
don't have, I'll just be GRATEFUL for all HIS BLESSINGS.
I am looking forward to a great DISTRICT MEETING, where Souls
will be SAVED, SET FREE, and DELIVERED. Continue to keep me in
your PRAYERS and I will do the same for you. My LOVE to EVERYONE !!
