Connecting Our Community Through Faith and Service

Faith is more than just a personal journey. It is also a shared experience that can bring people together. Winners Worship Center has always been a place of worship, fellowship, and support—a home where you can find strength, hope, and a sense of belonging. To further foster unity and connection within our community, we are launching our new initiative, “Community Connections Outreach.”

Our goal is to create a more connected community by bringing people closer, building relationships, and encouraging them to join our church so that they can experience the transformative power of community through faith and service.

In today’s world, many people feel isolated and disconnected due to various challenges. At Winners Worship Center, we believe each of us has a responsibility to be a beacon of hope and a source of support. No one should have to walk their journey alone. We are not just a church; we are a family—a family that stands together, prays together, and supports one another. 

Our church is a place where everyone is welcome. Whether you are looking for a place to grow in faith, build meaningful relationships, or find support during difficult times, you will find a home at Winners Worship Center. 

We invite you to join us and experience the joy of being part of a faith-filled community. By becoming one of us, you are not just joining a place of worship; you are taking part in a movement of love, compassion, and faith dedicated to positively impacting the community. Together, we can build a stronger sense of belonging and find greater meaning in our lives. With unity, we can create a community that reflects the love and light of Jesus in everything we do. 

Visit us this Sunday and see for yourself what makes our church a special place.

If you have any questions or would like to know more, reach out to Minister Marilyn or Minister Nan.

We look forward to welcoming you and embarking on this journey of faith and community together.

Celebrating Father’s Day: Honoring the Kings in Our Lives

Father’s Day is a special time to honor and celebrate the incredible men who have played a vital role in our lives. Whether they are biological fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers, or father figures, these men deserve our recognition and appreciation for their unwavering support, love, and guidance.

The Importance of Fathers

Fathers are often the unsung heroes of our families, providing strength, wisdom, and a sense of security. They teach us valuable life lessons, support us through challenges, and inspire us to reach our full potential. As we reflect on the significance of Father’s Day, it’s essential to recognize the profound impact fathers have on shaping our character and values.

Reflecting on Proverbs 20:7

As we celebrate Father’s Day, let’s reflect on Proverbs 20:7: “The righteous man walks in his integrity, his children are blessed after him.” This verse reminds us of the importance of living a life of integrity. When fathers walk in righteousness, their children reap the blessings of their example. Integrity, honesty, and faithfulness are the foundations of a strong, loving family.

Join Us for Sunday Service

We invite you to join us for a special Father’s Day Sunday service at Winners’ Worship Center. It’s an opportunity to come together as a community to celebrate and honor the fathers in our lives. Let’s give thanks for their sacrifices, love, and dedication. Our service will include heartfelt messages, uplifting worship, and a time of prayer for all fathers.

A "Happy Father's Day" banner invites people to a Sunday service on June 16, 2024, at 10:00 AM, celebrating Father's Day at 9309 N Florida Avenue, Suite 104, Tampa, FL 33612, hosted by Winners Worship Center.

Participate in the “Fit for a King” Outreach

In the spirit of Father’s Day, we also encourage you to participate in our “Fit for a King” outreach program. On June 15, we will be collecting new and gently used men’s sneakers, men’s clothing, toiletries, McDonald’s gift cards, and bag lunch food items for our Feed My Sheep Outreach. This initiative aims to provide essential items to men in need, honoring them as kings deserving of dignity and care.

You can schedule donations for pickup, learn how to send financial contributions, or volunteer by emailing info@imawinner.org. Your support and generosity will make a significant difference in the lives of many.

Father’s Day is a time to celebrate the kings in our lives and reflect on the values they impart.

Together, we can make this Father’s Day truly special, showing our appreciation and spreading love to those who need it most.

Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing fathers and father figures! Your love and guidance are truly appreciated and celebrated.

Celebrating the Mothers Who Shape Our Lives

Mothers. They hold a place unlike any other in our hearts. From the moment we enter this world, they nurture, guide, and love us unconditionally. On Mother’s Day, we take a special moment to honor these incredible women, but the truth is, their impact deserves to be celebrated every day.

At our church, we recognize mothers’ profound influence on our faith journeys. They instill values, teach us about compassion, and offer unwavering support. They are the backbone of our families and a cornerstone of our community.

This Mother’s Day, let’s shower the mothers in our lives with love and appreciation. Here are a few ways to show them you care:

  • Write a heartfelt letter: Take some time to express your gratitude for all the sacrifices your mother has made. Share a cherished memory or tell her how much her love means to you.
  • Plan a meaningful activity:  Spend quality time together doing something she enjoys. It could be a simple walk in the park, a movie night, or helping her with a project.
  • Offer a helping hand: Take a few chores off her plate. Cook her dinner, run errands, or help with the housework.
Join Us in Celebrating Mothers!

To further celebrate the mothers in our church family, we’re hosting two special events:

  • Mother’s Day Brunch: Join us on May 11th for a delicious brunch after our morning service. It’s a perfect opportunity to connect with other mothers and enjoy a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

  • Feed My Sheep Outreach: “Fit for A Queen”  On May 18th, we’ll host a donation drive specifically for mothers in need. Donate gently used sneakers, socks, and bags of food, or volunteer your time to help sort and distribute donations.

Let’s show the mothers in our community that they are valued and appreciated.

We look forward to celebrating with you!

Celebrating Easter: A Week of Renewal and Joy

Celebrating Easter: A Week of Renewal and Joy

Easter is more than chocolate bunnies and colorful eggs—it’s a time of spiritual rejuvenation and celebration! As we enter Holy Week, we go on a journey of reflection, remembrance, and renewal.

The week leading up to Easter Sunday, also known as Holy Week, begins with Palm Sunday—a day commemorating Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It’s a reminder of the joyous welcome He received from the crowds as they waved palm branches and shouted, “Hosanna!”

Then comes Maundy Thursday, where we remember the Last Supper Jesus shared with His disciples. It’s a time to reflect on His humility in washing their feet and instituting the sacrament of communion. Good Friday follows, marking the crucifixion of Jesus. Though sad, it’s a day to remember His sacrifice and the immense love He showed for humanity.

But the story doesn’t end there! Easter Sunday brings the glorious celebration of Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. It’s a day filled with joy, hope, and new beginnings. As Christians, we believe that Jesus’ victory over death offers us eternal life and forgiveness of sins.

Throughout Holy Week, churches hold special services and events to honor these significant moments in Christian history. From palm processions to solemn vigils and joyful Easter services, each day offers an opportunity to deepen our faith and draw closer to God. This year, Winners’ Worship Center will host three days of Prayer, Evangelism, & Worship in collaboration with Worship United Church.

📅 Friday, March 29th
⏰ All Night Prayer for Good Friday at Winners’ Worship Center
🕛 12 PM – 12 AM
📅 Saturday, March 30th
⏰ “Via Dolorosa”
🕝 2:30 PM – Walking the cross from Fowler Avenue to Worship United Church.

📅 Sunday, March 31st
⏰ Combined Sunday Service with Worship United Church
🕙 10 AM – Worship United Church: 10960 N 56th St, Temple Terrace Fl 33617.

Beyond the religious observances, Easter is also a time for families to come together, share meals, and create cherished memories.

So, as we celebrate Easter this year, let’s remember the true meaning behind the holiday. It’s a time to rejoice in the hope and renewal that Jesus’ resurrection brings—a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is light and life everlasting. Happy Easter!
