The Cross

"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;

who for the joy that was set before him

endured the cross,

despising the shame,

and is set down at the right hand of God."

Hebrews 12:2 (KJV)

Time Change!

Clocks should be set ahead one hour — spring forward---Saturday night (tonight). The official time is 2 a.m. Sunday, local time.

Don't put off today because there may not be a tomorrow!

"...and he that winneth souls is wise."

Proverbs 11:30b (KJV)

"But this I say, brethren, the time is short: ..."

I Corinthians 7:29a (KJV)

"Heaven and earth shall pass away,

but my words shall not pass away,

But of that day and hour knoweth no man,

no, not the angels of heaven,
but my Father only."

Matthew 7:35 (KJV)

Earthquake

Please pray for those that have been affected by the earthquake and the tsunami. Pray for the missionaries that may have in Japan or Hawaii!!

God is in control!

Rain

 We have had a lot of rain the last few days, it could be very dreary but we know that the LORD is in control of everything!

"...the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm,

and the clouds are the dust of his feet."

Nahum 1:3b  (KJV)

"To every thing there is a season,

and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born,

and a time to die;

a time to plant,

and a time to pluck up that which is planted;"

Ecclesiastes 3:1-2    (KJV)

Trip

Our trip to Illinois was great, fellowship sweet. Services at Faith Baptist Temple were tremendous. There were at least 100 people there, I sat next to Alice, she lives in Eureka and she told me she plans to return to the church. We will be praying for the Barr's as they minister to the people of Eureka, Illinois.

Our time at Averyville BC was wonderful. We had the opportunity to visit with Mrs. Skerrye and she is looking great. She is such a prayer warrior! There were people at the pm service that were there when we went to college - faithful people. ABC put us up in there prophet chamber and it was very relaxing.

Please continue to pray regarding our car. The part Leo installed before the trip did not take care of the stalling problem and we are now at 197,000 miles. We are not sure what the next step will be, we learned about a mechanic that Erich has used in the past and Leo plans to give him a call and see if we can resolve this problem.

To Illinois!

   

    Early tomorrow morning (Saturday) we are headed to East Peoria and Eureka, Illinois. Stephen, Sarah, and daughter Maddie are having their first church service in Eureka and we will be attending the morning service. We wouldl like to be an encouragment and blessing to them. We met the Barr's for the first time at our missions conference in January. We will be at Averyville Baptist Church in East Peoria for the evening service. ABC is our college church and we always love going back there.  Pastor Coyle and his wife, Brenda, are always so gracious and encouraging to us.

Please pray for safety (1,225 RT) and that our vehicle will do well. Leo put a new part on yesterday and we pray it will take care of the stalling issues and improve the gas mileage. When we return we will be setting up a time to present "Standing In The Gap" at a church here in Chattanooga.

"Rejoice evermore.

Pray without ceasing.

In every thing give thanks:

for this is the will of God

in Christ Jesus concerning you."

I Thessalonians 5:16-18  KJV

Please pray for the missionaries that are in areas of political unrest!!
