Lincoln will be in Revival October 18-21. Our Theme is "Building, Nurturing and Growing Congregational Relationships."  Revival is the time to renew, revive and restore your relationship with God.

There are many exciting things going on here at Lincoln.  As we move forward, we want to do as it says in Ephesians 4:12:  "to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up."

Our revival Preacher this year is Dr. Frank Portee, III., an excellent preacher/teacher.
