Greetings! Our scripture for today is taken from Philippians 4:4, "Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice." No matter the circumstances, problems, issues or struggles there is always a great and mighty God that we can worship and give praise and thanks to. HE IS GREAT AND GREATLY TO BE PRAISED!

This week has been filled with God's blessings and opportunity to minister. Saturday from 5 pm until about 8 pm the church at Huntingdon hosted the first Neighborhood Block Party Fellowship. The church served free hamburgers, hotdogs, drinks, and chips to those who came. There were at least 15 new people that attended and we became acquainted with them and had a great time of fellowship. We enjoyed the fellowship and the food. There were table games and later there was singing around a campfire. It was a great time of getting together and enjoying the friendship of neighbors around the church and other neighbors and friends of church members who attended. We were blessed to meet Mrs. Britt, the Kemps, the Williams and others. We thank God for the opportunity to show our love by simply sharing a meal with our neighbors. THANK YOU HUNTINGDON MEMBERS AND FRIENDS FOR THIS EFFORT!

Yesterday, God blessed in services at Jackson. I have been preaching in Jackson for the past two weeks. The services yesterday at Jackson were great as God manifested his presence in a great way. One man, Brother Scarbrough, in the service last night said, "I felt the presence of the Lord that I have not felt before." Others testified of God's goodness and presence. The manifest presence of God lingered and blessed as we prayed and worshipped around the altar. God is so awesome. I encourged the church to seek and trust God because he has great reward for those who seek Him.

Sister Gordon ministered at the Huntingdon church yesterday. She reported that the services went well. There were visitors there last night and the church is moving forward for the Lord.

Huntingdon will be in Homecoming this coming Sunday, October 23, from 10:30 until about 3:30 pm. There will be singing by the group By Faith and ministry by State Overseer, Dr. E. C. McKinley. Everyone is invited to attend.

Hi,

This is great...how did you do this, is it your own or did you do it through the state office?

God bless and keep up the great work.
