*Reading of the Scripture
THE DECALOGUE
And God spoke all these words saying, I am the Lord thy
God who brought Thee out of land of Egypt, out of the
house of bondage. Thou shall have no other Gods before
me.
People:(Sing) Lord have mercy upon us, and incline our heart to keep
this law.
Minister:
Hear what Christ our Savior saith, thou shall love the Lord
thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and with thy
entire mind. This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shall love thy neighbor
as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law
and the prophets.
People:(Sing)
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy
Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall
be, world without end. ...Amen

Minister: I was glad when they said unto me; let us go into the house of the Lord.
Our feet shall stand within thy gates, Oh Jerusalem. Psalm 122:1-2
People: For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand, I had rather be a
doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of
wickedness.
Psalm 84:10
Minister: There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ
Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the
Spirit.
People: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free
from the law of sin and death.
Minister: For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God
did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of
sin: he condemned sin in the flesh.
People: That the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us
who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
Minister: For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of
the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the
Spirit.
Romans 8:1-5
All:
And we know that all things work together for good to those who
love God, to those who are the called according His purpose.
…Amen
Romans 8:28
*AFFIRMATION OF FAITH (THE APOSTLES CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty Maker of heaven and earth: And in Jesus Christ His
only Son, Our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit Born of the Virgin Mary;
suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified dead and buried. He descended into hell.
On the third day He arose from the dead. He ascended into Heaven and sitteth at the
right hand of God the Father almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the quick and
the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit; the Holy Christian Church; the Communion of
Saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen
Rev. Dr. Brenda Lumzy-Hicks is the daughter of Dr. Robert L.
and Emma Lumzy. She was baptized in the Baptist faith at a
young age. She graduated in 1969 from Marion Central High
School in Columbia, Mississippi and moved to New
Brunswick, NJ where she married her high school sweetheart,
Minister Milton Hicks. They are blessed with two A's Anthony
and Anita Hicks. Recognizing music as one of her other gifts, she began singing with
her sisters. "The Lumzy Sisters," and traveled the world ministering the good news
through song.
Rev. Dr. Brenda completed two years at Middlesex County College in Edison, NJ in
creative writing and graduated with a four-year certificate from Monmouth Bible Institute
in Farmingdale, NJ; in June 2005 she received her Bachelor's Degree from Faith
Deliverance Institute in Perth Amboy, NJ in June 2008 she graduated with her Masters
and in June 2010 she received her Doctorate.
Recognizing that her ministry goes much deeper than just singing, she also realized that
God has commissioned her to preach and appointed her to proclaim liberty to the
captive, to bind up the broken-hearted, and to open the prison doors to those that are
bound. She was licensed to preach the gospel in 1990 and received her Certificate of
Ordination in 1998 through the Good Hope Baptist Association of Pennsylvania.
Embracing the gift of love and prophecy, she shares with young men and women all
across the country through revivals, evangelism, singing, youth crusades, prison
ministry, counseling, and women's conferences. Powerful testimonies have been raised
of how her ministry has helped change many lives and how yokes have been destroyed
as she ministers under the anointing.
Under the commission of the Holy Spirit, Prophetess Brenda founded New Birth
Deliverance Ministries. She also serves as manager for The Lumzy Sister's singing
ministry, as founder and president of the Annual Deep South Festival, promoting "Unity
in the Community," and founder of "Women of Purpose," which travels worldwide
portraying Women of the Bible. She has authored her first book entitled, "Hell Is Real –
One Way In! No Way Out!" She is also a song writer and bible study teacher, but the
acclamations that she holds in her fondest memories are the many letters she receives
from people whose lives have been touched through her ministry.
She served as Assistant Pastor under the leadership of Dr. R.L Lumzy, Sr. for eight
years at Mt. Calvary Missionary Baptist Church in New Brunswick, NJ until March 2007
when she was elected pastor. Jeremiah 3:15 says, "I will give you pastors according to
mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.” Prophetess
Brenda is a woman after God's own heart.
VISION
To develop fully mature disciples of Jesus Christ.
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of Rose of Sharon Community Church is to deepen our experience and knowledge of
God, through WORSHIP, EDUCATION, MINISTRY and FELLOWSHIP; to proclaim the gospel and
