Philippians 3:14 “I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Our family has enjoyed a year of deputation, traveling, and having the opportunity to meet so many fellow Christians striving to spread the Gospel in their community and the whole world. The mark we are prayerfully pressing towards presently is 100 % support by the end of this year! We are excited and encouraged as God has provided many churches that are coming along side us in this endeavor!
The month of September was a Mississippi month beginning with a great meeting in Carrier, MS at Sycamore Baptist Church, pastored by Paul Thigpen. The next Sunday we had the privilege of presenting in Central Baptist Church and Caney Baptist Church in Hattiesburg and Lumberton, MS while Wednesday we dropped in on Bible Baptist Church pastored by Rick Carter in Gulfport, MS. It was great timing as we were given a chance to be a small part in their mission’s conference. The next week, Saturday 15th – Friday 21st, consisted of a very exciting mission’s conference at Charity
Baptist Church in Brookhaven, MS, pastored by Tim Gordon. We began the close of the month in our home state of Texas visiting with Caprock Baptist Church, Bible Believer’s Baptist Church, and Fundamental Baptist Church. We met with Pastor Gene Foster, Glen Stocker, Gary Miller while bringing September to a close with W. R. Workman, pastor of First Baptist Church in Parker, KS. It was an honor getting to know each of these men of God and their church families who were a great blessing to us.
The month of October would be a very full month of travel as we were scheduled to be in Kansas, Colorado, and Nebraska. The Lord provided for us each step of the way, and we were able to see His hand work multiple times! We began in Nebraska, Wednesday 3rd – 17th, visiting in Bible Baptist Church, Anchor Baptist Church, First Baptist Church, Lincoln Baptist Church, and Riverside Baptist Church, all within the cities of Scottsbluff, Plattsmouth, Lincoln, and North Platte. Every visit throughout these months provide opportunities to be a part of mission’s conferences, stay in the homes of the pastors, visit with many church members, and fruitful soulwinning! It was an encouraging time for each and every one of us. By Sunday October 21st we were in Colorado visiting in Iglesia Bautista Elmwood and Gethsemane Baptist Church who blessed us with their kindness and speaking opportunities. We ended the month visiting with Amazing Grace Baptist Church, Sunrise Baptist Church, and Wichita Heights Baptist Church all within the Kansas’ cities of Kansas City, Oakley, and Wichita.
There is truly no greater blessing than having the privilege of serving God together as a family, singing, presenting, preaching, fellowshipping, and best of all soul winning! You, as a fellow prayer warrior and supporter are a major part of each soul won and life reached. God bless you for your faithfulness.
