Abundant Life Assembly of God

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

 Howard Street 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 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.

Brand new to LIFE Church is ourBible Study on Thursdays at 7 p.m. in ou coffee cafe.   Check the bulletin for list of scripture we will be studying on a weekly basis.

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!

Theme: I Believe in Communion

Blood of the Lamb

Read Exodus 12:7–13

From the first sin, God has made a way to cover sin and erase it from the person’s record. At their root, sin offerings involve blood sacrifice.

The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt (Exodus 12:13).

As the Israelites were preparing to leave Egypt, God made a way for them to show they were protected from the coming plague—they put fresh blood on their doorposts. To remember this event, Jewish people even today still gather to relive the night before they left Egypt.

Christians also join together in worship to remember how God provided a lamb for their salvation. We take Communion to remember how Jesus became a sin offering for the world. Anyone can ask God to put the blood of the Lamb on the doorposts of their heart. Afterwards, He will remove from them the consequences of sin and pass over them at the time of judgment.

Thought for Today: Because of Jesus’ death, we can have life.
