This is Ackot Kok who got saved and baptized this morning. Overall the attendance was down and has been done the past several weeks. This has partly been because of the rash of deaths we have had associated with our church. Three to be exact. Two of them were members. That has been a sad note, though we will celebrate the home going of one tomorrow with about 200 expected to attend. The offering have been at an all time high in the past five weeks. Praise God when things seem a little down somewhere else, God answers by bringing another area up.

Our Valentine Banquet seemed to be a big success this past Friday night. This picture was one of the games we played. The contestants had to look for their spouses heart (which was lost) in this pile of whip cream. We had lots of fun games for adults and had a great dinner. Over all we had a good spirit on Sunday with a new family joining the church. Offerings have been fantastic the last four weeks also. Praise God for being able to have good clean fun!

This is Blaise Rashidi, one of our fine teenagers at our church. He has been in our church about 1 1/2 years and is from Congo, Africa. He can speak several languages and is becoming a good soul winner. He was recently my soul winning partner one Thursday night, when we met a man in the hallway of an apartment complex that was on his way out. The man was carrying several bags and I did not think he would stop to talk to us, but Blaise got him to stop. He listen to Blaise present the gospel and then bowed his head and trusted Christ. He said the prayer met a lot to him and then went on his way. All we got was his first name. However, a few days later I received a phone call from a man who said he was an Christian employer of man that we talked to on Thursday night. He described the man, but would not tell us his name. He advised us that this particular employee, he has been witnessing to for quite a while. However, he told us that this employee of his was on his way to commit suicide when two of our men stopped him and gave him a pamphlet from our church, shared some verses with him and prayed with him to trust Christ. He said, his employee told him that he decided not to commit suicide that night after trusting Christ. Given the location and description, we believe it is this unknown man of sorts that Blaise talked to in the hallway. Praise God for a loving Saviour that can and will save all that come to him. Overall we had a good Sunday with 106 in attendance and 2 public professions of faith being made with one following the Lord in believer's baptism. Somebody say, AMEN!

This is Cleyton Meyhew, one of our church members. He was dressed really sharp today and I decided to get a picture with him. I appreciate having him in our church. He speaks 13 different languages. This particular day I preached a message called "What's Wrong with the Old Black Book?" He gave up his N.I.V./Arabic Bible after the message and I gave him an Arabic Bible that is equal to the King James. Somebody say, AMEN! We had 105 this morning, which is a little low, but had two professions and one baptized! Crowd was low Sunday night, but spirit was great!
