It has been awhile since I have blogged, but the days have flown by so quickly. We just finished our Stewardship Conference with Dr. J.C. House and it was a blessing to have him share with us his wisdom that he has gleaned from God's Word. One of the purposes of the conference was to present the need for raising an offering to remodel alot of the inside of our facilities. In the last four years we have been able to do so many wonderful things to make God's house more presentable to the people who serve faithfully here and for the visitors who attend weekly.
I can say that God blessed us with a gracious offering and more anticipated to come in or be promised. Preparations are already in the works with the auditorium being painted beginning next Monday and the new P.A. equipment arriving in a few days to be installed in the next two weeks. Praise the Lord for faithful members! within a month one of them will be re-appolstering all the platform chairs, all the pews, and the usher's and foyer chairs. The first of June we will begin work on the new Spanish auditorium and classroom space. God is sure good inspite of us sometimes.
This week my wife and I had the privlege of attending the Oklahoma's Preachers Fellowship hosted by Chris Austin and the Lighthouse Baptist Church of Lawton. What a great meeting! Pastor Harrell preached a stirring message Monday night about PREACHING the WORD! Tuesday Pastor Lindsey preached a heart-felt message about trials and how God triumphs over them and Brother Gaddis challenged us in Personal Spiritual Development which is essential for every man of God who serves in ministry. GREAT MEETING!!
As I type our IT man (short for computer nerd lol) is busy installing our new office computers. He has been very busy these last few weeks getting everything ready for when we remodel the offices. Thanks Bro. Tom!
God is GOOD, God is GREAT! even in trials or in triumphs. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever!!
