A New Grandson

My wife with Nathan at Hospital
This past Thursday night I had a new grandson born. His name is Nathan Allen Painter. It was exciting to see his parents have him in church this morning for his very first Sunday outside of the womb. God blessed our Lord's day with solid attendance in Sunday school of 128. That was good since as many as 24 regulars were missing that normally never miss. We also saw a convert from early in the week named Manny follow the Lord in believer's baptism.

 This past Friday night we had a Valentine party for the adult Sunday schools here at the church. The attendance was good and the participation in the games was excellent. Many people said this was the best party/banquet they have ever attended at our church. God is blessing in a mighty way at our church and the spirit has never been better. Please pray for continual spiritual growth in our people as we continue to win many to Christ...
