Living Lord's Supper

Sunday night Tim had the opportunity to portray Thomas for our church's reinactment of the Last Supper. Each man gave a short monologue tell a little bit about the disciples background & what they might have been feeling that night. The men in the program worked very hard & the Spirit of the Lord was there Sunday night. The devil came too, but he didn't stay very long once he realized that the lack of electricity wasn't going to stop anything! Just as they were about to start, a good portion of Benson lost power due to the storms that went through. So, we lighted candles and continued. It was a powerful program & I'm so glad they continued because one precious soul was saved & many more were touched by the reality of what Jesus did for us. I've attached a video of Tim's monologue. I hope you are blessed! It really made you feel that you were there. It reminds us all of what a great price was paid for our salvation. The play took about two months of weekly practices and few late nights but it was well worth it. The question is repeatedly asked Is it I that betrays the Lord? When we think about it all of us have betrayed him in our lives at one point or another.

Happiness Is...

...the emotional awaking to the things God has done!! That's what we learned this week at our Ladies Conference. We had a great time watching the guys cook, learning about Biblical happiness & just spending time together! What a BIG change from Jr. Camp:) Thank you to all the ladies who came. I pray that you are still happy!!

This is the day the Lord has made...

I WILL rejoice & be glad! (Even if I have to do end-of-the-year financial reports & IRS Forms today!)

We'd like to thank the Lord for an awesome concert last night!! We had over 160 people in attendance from about 10 different churches! Calvary's Mark & BLACK CREEK sang a great concert & were such a blessing! The food and the fellowship was wonderful. Continue to pray for property. We were able to begin to raise the necessary funds. It just feels so slow!!! A BIG thank you to all who helped in the kitchen, brought food, set up & took down tables & chairs, decorated, & cooked. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful friends & a great church family supporting us!!

More Praises:)

A journey of faith is not without it's doubts. Sometimes you ask, "God, are we doing the right thing?" He is so faithful to show His way! In the past week & half, we have seen Stillwater South booked for the entire month of Feb., a week in March & a week in Nov! Plus, a very much needed washer & dryer donated, PLUS all the stuff that I last posted!!!! PLUS PLUS PLUS---Stillwater received its non-profit, tax-exempt status from the government today!!!! Thank you so much to Tony at Langdon & Associates for all the hard work to make this happen!! God is so good!!

A Big Prayer Praise Times Two!!!!

Many of you know that Stillwater South (our FL house) was missing an AC unit. This also meant that the heat was out! We have been doing some serious praying about this because we have people coming to the house today!! Friends were going to leave space heaters to warm up the house, but we knew that this was not the ideal situation. Today, one of our good friends, Rusty, took someone out to the house and to make a long story short, the heat is working!!!! While we were rejoicing over this, we got a phone call saying that an AC unit was found for the house & someone is going to take care of putting it in!! God still performs miracles!! We are so excited!! Now we can say Stillwater South is officially open! PLEASE, spread the word to all the pastors & missionaries that you know & have them contact us so this house can be used for the Lord!

Snowed In:)

We have had an awesome time this weekend playing in the snow! Mylanie has gotten to experience a lot of "firsts"---Sled riding, snow angels, eating snow!!-- & all the fun stuff that goes along with a snow storm. Mr. Barry took her for her first four wheeler ride, which she loved, and gave us an awesome ride on the saucer! We got about 4 maybe 5 inches of snow, but it's enough to keep everyone in until probably Tuesday!
