Record Sunday!

We had an absolutely great day this past Sunday, with a record crowd of 149 in Sunday school and 146 in the morning service. We also had a record crowd of 62 on Sunday night. There were 6 professions of faith made Sunday morning with 4 getting baptized. We also had another one baptized Sunday night! I preached the message "Have a Firm Foundation" on Sunday morning and then we were very privileged to hear Dr. Dean Miller preach the message called "The Altars" on Sunday night! Thank God for the Holy Spirit and the His workings!

Wonderful Teen Conference

This is my good friend, Dr. Wiley Bennett. I got to see him at the Teen Convention at the Longview Baptist Temple in Longview, Texas. We had a wonderful week as we took ten people to the conference. The preaching was fantastic and many great decisions were being made by our teens. We even had one girl lead her first soul to Christ during the Wednesday night soul winning. There were six saved by the group of soul winners from our church. Over all the church had 191 souls saved that night during the soul winning! Amen and amen! Praise God for soul winning and for the Teen Convention!

The Ree Reh Family


We had a wonderful weekend with 10 public professions ofn faith being made and 6 following the Lord in believer's baptism. Some of those making a public profession of faith were from this Burmese family, the Ree Reh family. I am thankful for the opportunity that we have to reach such a diverse population of people here in our city. We had 126 in attendance this morning! Thank God for Calvary!

This evening we had 54 in attendance with one following in believer's baptism. This past week we had 57 souls trust Christ as Saviour. Praise God for Sunday school, a great tool for reaching individuals!

Anniversary Sunday


This past Sunday was our anniversary Sunday. Our church is now eight years old since we started it on June 2, 2002. We had a good Sunday overall with four professions of faith and two who followed the Lord in believer's baptism. We also had forty-one souls saved this past week. In the evening service we had the children's group sing. Praise the Lord for eight great years. I am looking forward to eight more wonderful years.

Guest From Cuba!


This is Lizbet Domingez and her son, Jose, from Cuba. They have lived in America for three months and saw our church bus going by their apartment last week, so they flagged us down and asked us if they could come to church. Jose got baptized on Sunday, and had already been saved in Cuba. Lizbet had already been saved in a Baptist church in Cuba. They wanted to come because they saw the word Baptist on the bus. They know very little English but we had spanish soulwinners that were able to deal with them. Praise God for the way he works.
