Abundant Life Assembly of God

Welcome to Abundant Life Assembly's Ministry on the web! 


WE'VE MOVED OUR LOCATION...church 

Abundant Life Assembly of God has been given a miracle from God!  We have been given a beautiful facility located at 231 Howard Ave in Altoona by the Fourth Lutheran Church.  Ps. 145:4 says "Each generation will announce to the next your wonderful and powerful deed".  This is a MONUMENTAL deed and we are truly humbled and thankful.  Please come visit us at our new location...you will be amazed just as we are.

The most important gift we can give you is to personally invite you to meet Jesus.  He is the heart and center of the lives of the folks of Abundant Life as well as the life of our church.  He has a plan for your life.  If we can help you in anyway - please contact us, we would love to pray for you or answer your questions and help you with your life journey.

We have some very exciting and powerful events coming in the next few months. Please save the date of April 18.  That is going to be the day of our new church dedication.  Our District Superintendent, Steve Tourville and Rev. Michael Bongiorno will be our guests for that very special day.   Also, please check out our church calendar on the website or our weekly bulletin for updates. You are personally invited to come along and share in all that Abundant Life has to offer.  We want to meet the needs of each person, every family and our community.

If you take a look at our most recent newsletter, you'll see there is something special planned for nearly every age group - it's intentional!  We are working at becoming more intentionally generational.  We want to work to meet the needs of every single person that we have the opportunity to minister to.  Check it out - there is something just for you!

I Believe in God

Characteristics of God

Read Exodus 34:1–7

God demonstrated His mercy when He had Moses prepare a new set of tablets to replace the one Moses had broken in anger. As God passed by Moses, He dramatically revealed characteristics of himself that we also can experience.

• Compassionate and gracious: God bestows on us mercy and unmerited favor.

• Slow to anger: God is patient with us.

• Abounding in love and faithfulness: He showers us with a loyal love.

• Forgiving wickedness, rebellion, and sin: God consistently displays His mercy toward us by forgiving our sins.

Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation (Exodus 34:7).

A holy God cannot allow sin to go unpunished. His mercy allows us the opportunity to renew a right relationship with Him. To decline that opportunity is to risk the fallout of sin. God always prefers to show His mercy rather than His anger.

Prayer for Today: Lord, thank You for the mercy You so freely give us. May we never take that mercy for granted.
