From the Pastor's Desk

Dear Church Family,
     Wow, what an August!  We had great attendance in Sunday School, the new speak system was installed, we gutted the restrooms in the main building and installed everything new, we stripped and re-waxed the floor and painted the walls in the youth room, AWANA clubs started back, Josh and Becky Simpson started a new youth ministry on Sunday nights called Y.E.S. (Youth Evening Service), we moved Sunday School classes around to accommodate the people attending, we had a good many visitors attend and many have shown an interest in joining.  The architect is working on the plans for the new building, the Long Range Planning Committee has met and is working on plans to help see this building go up.
September, I believe, will be an exciting month as well.  We have two people to baptize, our Revival Meetings will be September 14-16.  I’m believing that God is going to meet with us in a very special way during these days.  Our part is to be faithful in attendance each and every service.  Let’s kick it off by having a record attendance in Sunday School on the 14th.  Think of those you can invite to attend with you and begin praying for them and asking them to join you on that day.
I will launch a new ministry in September called “NEXT STEP”.  It is a discipleship ministry to help believers move beyond where they are with Christ.  No matter where you are with Christ, you can take the next step.

Serving the Savior,
Pastor Mike
