Introducing the Book: Church Sanctuary Keepers

In the house of God, cleanliness, order, and preparation are sacred acts of worship that set the stage for spiritual transformation. In my insightful book, "Church Sanctuary Keepers," I explore the often-underappreciated yet critical role of those who dedicate themselves to keeping the church sanctuary clean, organized, and welcoming. The sanctuary is the meeting place between God and His people, and it must be treated with reverence and care. This book empowers those called to serve as sanctuary keepers with biblical foundations, practical tips, and spiritual insights to serve with excellence.

I firmly believe that sanctuary keeping is not just a physical task but a spiritual ministry that honors God, serves His people, and reflects His glory.
