GREAT DAY IN THE LORD

What a great day in the Lord! Thank the Lord for a great day. We were thankful to have visitors today. Casey Duncan's mother, Patsy Bell and Grandmother, Edna Bear joined us today. Thank the Lord for a great time.

We boosted our world missions offering today and thank the Lord for the giving in our World Missions. We pray for our Harvest Partners, Uganda and Sudan.

At 3 pm we met at the church property and enjoyed a great time of kick ball and the grilled out burgers and hot dogs with all the trimmings. The property on Northwood is looking better and better. After a time of food and fellowship we gathered around the fire that Brother Paul and his brother-in-law, Homer, built. We had a great time of singing, testifying and a time of writing each one's struggles, battles, failures and sins on a piece of paper and throwing them in the fire - as a symbol of putting those things in the fire of the Holy Ghost. It was a defining moment in time for many of us as we felt the presence of the Lord. We staying close around the fire as the cool night air came in but the presence of the Lord kept us warmed just as the campfire kept us warm outwardly. Thank God for his presence. We are praying and believing for a great time of revival and evangelization in our church.

Brother Paul's Sister Mary and her husband, Homer, enjoyed cooking the burgers and dogs. Homer has roofed for 15 years and and he and his family have moved here and are looking for work and a place to live. He is going to finish our roof (the outside edges and gable) on the pavilion.
