Top of the Morning to you!!!! We greet you in Divine Love; our prayer is that you and your family are walking under an open heaven!!!
We started this Sunday Morning at 9:30am for Sunday School, we had to move our time because we had baptism this morning. Sunday School started at 9:30am. Again I'm excited that our Sunday School is growing and that people are making a special effort to get back to it! Class #1 won the banner offering and my class class #2 won the banner attendance. We finish Sunday School at 10:15am and we headed to Greater Shady Grove Baptist Church on 2nd Avenue where my friend Pastor Marcus J. Gibson serves as the Senior Pastor/Teacher!!! Now listen as we are preparing to go to Greater Shady Grove, to my amazement when we walk outside it was snowing. Did you hear what I just said? It was snowing in Georgia!! When we got to Greater Shady Grove, our candidates got dress and man I tell you the truth, we had an awesome baptismal service, I mean Pastor Gibson brought us back to the banks of the river, the way we use to have baptismal!!! It was spirit filled and an awesome experience. We had 3 candidates to go down in the liquid grave. Well when we got back to our church of course the crowd was scarce because of the weather, isn't it funny, that folks will go to work in inclement weather, they will go to the club, game or movies in inclement weather, but when it comes to church they will not show up!!! WOW!!
Anyway our choir did an awesome job in bringing us in the very presence of God!!! I started a series as we prepare for our spring revival on next week. The sermon I preached came from John 8:1-11, the subject was called Don't get caught throwing rocks!!! The focus was on the church that God is calling us to build, "The House of Grace" if indeed we are going to reach people we have to learn to accept them just as they are.
At the end of the service when we gave the invitation we also gave an invitation for New Beginning family members to recommit themselves to the Lord!!! They responded to the call and we are ready to hear from the Lord in our revival!!!
Again thank you for your prayers for our ministry as we continue to try to win the lost for the Kingdom of God!!!!
Winning the Lost at any Cost,
