Mission Trip





I was greatly blessed going to the Dominican Republic June 15-22 with Meeting God in Missions. Nine of us from our church (along with 73 others) stayed in Hato Mayor which is a poor city. I experienced many different things there, some hard and some fun and exciting. I helped the optical team by going to four different villages and giving people reading glasses. We prayed with each person and 12 people prayed to recieve Christ! Hallelujah!

I was greatly impacted by this trip seeing another culture, the poverty, and the people dealing with living like that. The children were very lovable and friendly. We also had some fun going to different churches and riding on cow trucks through the woody areas to get there. It was wonderful to worship with the believers there. They used alot of rhythm instruments. I was impressed with the young boys being so good at it!

I praise the Lord for allowing me the privilege to serve like this. I know He wanted me to see it, minister there, and learn from it. I hope what we did there draws many more into His kingdom.

Wonderful Council!

As many people gathered for the "Jesus Only" C&MA National Council in Louisville, KY last week, an awesome time was had. The unity of workers and lay people and the work of the Holy Spirit was inspiring, and great services, renewed friendships, and wonderful worship created a memorable 2009 Council.

Memorial Day

Off to Louisville, KY on Memorial Day for National Council. I'm really looking forward to this experience since I don't travel much.

May you be reminded of all of our deceased veterans who greatly sacrificed for us so we could have our freedom today.

Visits

Glad to have our oldest daughter coming to visit this weekend in addition to her boyfriend coming to see her. We hope to have a few sweet days together. The Sunday soup social looks to be a great time and the Monday outreach of our women's group should be fruitful for the kingdom. Our visit next weekend to the flower conservatory will be a time of wonder and awe as we see the many beautiful creations of our God.

I'm getting ready to go to Kentucky at the end of the month so I look forward to that week of activities there and what God will do in my life as I have this new experience.

Prayer

Prayer is the primary work of God's people.

"And pray in the Spirit on all occassions." Eph 6:18
"Pray continually." 1 Thess 5:17
