Reaching and Teaching

 Since returning home about three weeks ago, I have been very busy. The kids ministry was given back to me by those left in charge while I was away. We are again in a rebuilding process for this ministry. I am learning that the people involved must have a heart for the ministry, or we will continually see the same process being repeated. Please pray for the kids and their families.

Our ladies craft group, Crafternoons, has been going well. This week, I was able to take the leader of the group to visit a lady who lives nearby. Please pray that she will join the group next week, and that God can use this to bring her to Him. She has had much heartache, and has basically rejected anything to do with God or church.

Last week, I was able to give a very brief Gospel presentation to three guys working at the Verizon store. I also invited them to church. Please pray that I can have another opportunity to speak with them, and that God will cause them to decide to come to church. I believe one is already a Christian.

Please pray for our young people. Satan is using others to hinder the spiritual growth of this age group.  I believe God could do something great with the 20-30s people in our area if others in our church would get on board with the outreach. As in any church, there is always a handful who do not see a need for the church to grow.

I still have an unspoken need that only God can fix. Please pray as I continue to take steps to bring light to this situation so that those involved can be helped.

Please pray as God is continuing to open new doors of opportunity for the future of my ministry to missionaries around the world.
