Pastor Mitica Dragici and his wife Lili have been such a wonderful source of inspiration and blessing to Pastor Adam and Taya over the years. Their friendship and partnership tremendously helped the church in Ruse, Bulgaria and the Dragoon family personally.
We are SO EXCITED that they are making time before the July Prescott conference to come visit us on the East Coast before going on to Arizona. What a privilege it will be to hear him preach both of our Sunday services. Please come to be inspired by this faithful couple.
Pastor Ajala ministers at the altar
We can’t wait for this powerful minster of the Gospel to bring his unique message to the Hampton Roads are. Let’s be ready to hear from God!
Here’s a description of the location, Peaks of Otter: Three mountain peaks sit atop a thick blanket of forest along the famous Blue Ridge Parkway, making up the Peaks of Otter-- a recreational oasis spanning acre upon acre of rolling landscape. The Blue Ridge Parkway is a scenic byway that follows the high crests of the central and southern Appalachians for 469 miles from Shenandoah National Park in Virginia, to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina.
The 24-acre Abbott Lake is one of the biggest attractions the Peaks of Otter Park has to offer. The lake is well-stocked with small mouth bass and bluegill. A crystal-clear mountain stream winds through the nearby picnic area.Numerous hiking opportunities range from demanding, scaling the area's high mountain peaks, to the moderate short, flat trail around Abbott Lake. Hikers are likely to stumble upon one of the mountain meadows, filled with wildflowers and migrating butterflies in the spring and a fantastic assortment of colors in the fall. Abundant wildlife like deer and wild turkey are spotted daily at the Peaks of Otter Campground, and many rare species of birds reside or migrate along the mountain ranges. Summer interpretive programs are provided for visitors to learn about the wildlife as well as the history of the area.
We’ll have a fantastic time of fellowship, fun and study in the Word of God. Check out some pics from last time we were there:

Our fellowship has placed a strong emphasis on men’s ministry with the hope of raising up another generation of disciples and leaders in the Kingdom of God. This year, we have the great privilege of having a Men’s Rally in Jacksonville, NC featuring the founder of our fellowship, Pastor Wayman Mitchell and his son, Pastor Greg. I strongly recommend for every man in our church to do all within their power to make this rally a priority.
The plan is to leave from Virginia Beach at 3PM on Friday, December 7 in order to arrive in Jacksonville before the start time of 8PM. We will all pitch in to split up some hotel rooms overnight and then return Saturday morning for three more challenging messages. If you cannot make the Friday night service, please do all you can to leave early Saturday morning, to arrive by the morning start time of 9AM.
We should head back to Hampton Roads about 1PM, returning around 6PM. Please sign up below to pitch in to cover travel and hotel expenses. Can’t wait!
We were shocked and disturbed to learn that the Virginia Beach Public Library was hosting and promoting the Drag Queen Story Time each month for the last few months. This event gives a platform to a nightclub exhibitionist whose stage name is Gillette Black. The library has thought it acceptable to allow him to read stories about gender dysphoria to children as young as three, while extravagantly dressed in immodest drag attire.
Our church has the conviction that we cannot allow this event to continue without a Christ-centered response. That is why we asked for and received permission from the library to hold a Celebration of the Biblical Family. We will be gathering together in this public forum to affirm the wisdom, beauty, and grandeur of the family, as defined by the Word of God. This is not an attack on any individual or group, this is an opportunity to present a positive, encouraging and enlightening message to a world that is lost in much confusion.
If you were as shocked as we were at the Drag Queen Story Time, we hope that you'll bring your family to the Joint-Use Public Library on Saturday, the 29th of September at 1PM to remind our community that there are still a few people left that will stand up to the immoral trends of the world.
Hope to see you there as we lift up the Name of Jesus Christ!
Evangelist Frankie Chi from Chandler, AZ
Frankie Chi will deliver the unvarnished Word of God with passion and conviction. Please don't miss these exciting services!

First, a few pictures from previous God & Country Events in 2013, 2015, and 2016:
It's time again for the annual God & Country event in Washington, D.C.! The event will take place on the steps in front of the Lincoln Memorial, started promptly at 11AM. This year, festivities will include a concert, a US Navy Color Guard & Drill Team performance, testimonies from combat veterans and active duty personnel, and biblical preaching in the heart of our nation's capitol.
We would like to have as many active duty or veterans in uniform as possible. If you still have your uniform or are currently active duty, please wear it to the event so we can honor your service. Pastor Colona has also put out a call to any saved military personnel that have been in combat give a short testimony on the sacrifice that they have seen in a time of war and also acknowledge the sacrifice that Christ made for them. If this applies to you and you would like to attend. Please contact me ASAP so I can get you involved.
When the event concludes, the group from our church here in Virginia Beach will eat some lunch and then make a trip to the newly opened Museum of the Bible. It is only a two-mile walk from the God & Country event and is well worth the time and effort to visit while we are in the area. We expect to be back in Virginia Beach around 11PM.
There is no cost for this trip, except for transportation. Please let me know if you are interested in pooling our resources to rent a passenger van to minimize transportation costs.
World-famous atheist Dr. Sol Harkens (Kevin Sorbo) delights in debating Christians. Isolated from his wife Katy (Sam Sorbo), his self-destruction culminates in a car crash that leaves him clinically dead for 4 minutes. The message from that experience challenges his convictions. Reluctantly leaning on his family's forgiveness, Sol struggles to find meaning in the words "Let There Be Light."
