Text Box: Pastor & Charla
J. Wayne Terry
Text Box:  “Welcome
to Maranatha!”

First, I want to greet you with,

"MARANATHA", and you’re probably

asking the same question most

people ask me, how do you say it,

and what does it mean?

Glad you asked!!!

"Mar-a-na-tha", there you go now that wasn’t so bad was it. Well Maranatha itself is an ancient Hebrew-Aramaic word that meant alternatively, "the Lord is coming soon," or "Oh, Lord, Come Soon." It was part of the Jewish congregational prayers in the first century. It occurs in the New Testament in 1 Cor. 16:22 (the Aramaic word is transliterated into Greek letters in the text). The word came into English as a transliteration as well. It was also the way the early church greeted one another giving them hope in what seemed to be a hopeless generation, much like our own generation of today!

 

Second, “We are more than just one church, we are proud of the fact we’re part of the great world wide “Church of God” family with International Headquarters in Cleveland Tennessee.”
