Join us for an uplifting evening of worship, singing from the Psalter and Gospel hymns, and a personal word of testimony from James McCosh (elder from Ballymena Free Presbyterian Church).James will share his powerful story of how God graciously saved him during the historic 1975 Gospel Mission in Ballymena Town Hall under the preaching of Dr. Ian Paisley—transforming his life forever through deep conviction of sin and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. His testimony highlights the unchanging power of the Gospel, eternal security in Christ (John 10:28), and God's preserving grace over many years of faithful service as a Sunday School Superintendent, deacon, and elder.This is a wonderful, family-friendly gathering suitable for all ages—bring your loved ones, friends, and neighbours to hear this encouraging account of God's saving work!

As the clock ticks down on December 31, 2025, and the world prepares to usher in 2026, many of us find ourselves in moments of quiet reflection. The past year has been a tapestry of triumphs and trials—days filled with joy and gratitude, interspersed with seasons of sorrow, struggle, and unanswered questions. In churches around the globe, congregations gather not just to celebrate the turning of the calendar but to seek divine guidance for the road ahead. It is in this spirit that we turn to a timeless sermon delivered on this very evening, drawing from the book of Exodus chapter 33. The message, centered on Moses' fervent plea in verse 15—"If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence"—serves as a profound call to prioritize God's presence above all else as we step into the unknown.This article expands upon the sermon's transcript, weaving its biblical insights, historical context, and practical applications into a comprehensive exploration. It invites readers to pause amid the festivities and consider not merely what we plan to achieve in the coming year, but with whom we will journey. In an era of rapid change, where success is often measured by metrics and milestones, this prayer reminds us that true progress is impossible without the divine companionship of the Almighty.

And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more; And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
