Praising God for the rain.

If this Sunday is like last Sunday, praise God we are going to have to issue an SOS (scoot over some). We had a couple come in during the first part of my message and I really thought they were going to leave (no, not because of the message). Praise God, one of our ushers leaped to the rescue and found them a seat. Praise God for small problems…

From what I understand my wife planned a party at our house on Friday night for Jeff Hooper’s Sunday School class. Sweetie, does that mean I am going to have to pick up my shoes? We are looking forward to hangin out with everybody. And hey, bring a friend, the food’s on Jeff.

Remember, there will be no Sunday evening activities this Sunday night in lieu of Labor day weekend. Be sure and spend some extra time with the family and not as much in front the of TV watching the ballgame, race, etc.

Please be in prayer for Keith Travis, for those of you who have not had the privilege of meeting Keith and Pam, Keith is the Director of the Chaplaincy Program for the North American Mission Board. Keith will be heading to Korea on September 6 along with Bobby Welch, the former president of the Southern Baptist Convention, and they will be ministering to the Chaplains and the commanders all throughout that country. Keith we are praying for you sir and know the Lord is going to greatly use you guys. P.S. Have fun in Hawaii on the trip home (suffering for Jesus right…)

It seems like a long time off but the Men’s conference at FBCW will be here before you know it. Tickets are already on sale and are selling fast. The dates for the conference are January 30-31. Tickets are $40.00 which covers the conference and a steak dinner. The deadline to order before a price increase is the last week in September. We will be taking deposits and pre-registering people beginning this Sunday at the back of the Worship Center if you would be interested in going.

Have I told you lately how blessed I am to be your Pastor? Well I am very blessed!
