Meet & Greet

Last Saturday night, we hosted a "Meet & Greet." The main purpose was for us to get to know the people that attend our Bible study better. Satan has a clever way of working and only one lady (Tracey) and her children were able to attend. This did not discourage us because we were able to get to know them better. We played the games Jenga and Uno (and we ate...of course).

Tracey is an incredible encouragement as she is reading her Bible and memorizing verses every week. She is really spiritually hungry. Brandie is teaching her children (4 and 10 years old) every Sunday at the same time as the adult Bible study. Her children are like sponges when they learn. Brandie and I are very happy with the way it's all working out right now.

Because of the "Charismatic Mess" we had about a month ago, we have lost a couple of people (hopefully not forever). Michael and Comfort have decided to attend a charismatic church over our infant Baptist church on the basis of our stand against "tongues" and the entire charismatic movement. Please pray that God will open their eyes and that they will obey His Word.

We have moved our Bible study from Sunday evenings to Sunday mornings and we want to start discipling some that are involved in our ministry on a one-on-one basis. We are still working on our Greek language and hope to have some Greeks attend soon.

This is it for now. Monday is a day we spend as a family doing family things. So, we're off to hang out together (because it's 66 deg. and a beautiful, sunny day).
