Check in, Check up

Well, it has been a long time since I've posted a blog. Not intentional of course. Life just has a way of revving up and moving ahead at a fast pace.

I do want to take a minute to tell you that God is definitely working and our church is poised for some great things.

We began a Bible Study class at Lynn and Kyle's house last Friday and we had eight people in attendance. Lynn and Kyle are ready to be baptized in Jesus Name! Lynn told me the Bible Study (which was on the infilling of the Holy Spirit - the New Birth) was music to her ears.

This past Sunday Pastor Mac gave his testimony and there were numerous visitors in attendance. So the word is out about Greater Life Church and people are coming to see what it is all about!

God is blessing the Bunch family! One really fantastic couple, Geoffrey and Rita, brought us a stand alone freezer which they were not using. Geoffrey said that he was going to come the next evening to check on it and make sure it worked, which I thought was kind of strange. The next evening, he and Rita showed up with two large grocery bags filled with frozen foods. Geoffrey said, "You've got a freezer now so you need something to put in it"!

They also brought flowers for Farrah and sweeties (candy) for the kids. I told them that I've heard about stuff like that but had never been on the receiving end. But being on the receiving end sure felt good! Thank God for unexpected blessings!

Cheers, Cheerio, All the best.

Praise God for His blessings!! I am so happy to hear about the church growing, having visitors and such. Also wonderful news about those ready to be baptized. We are praying for the work over there and the workers too.

Geoffrey and Rita have to be really wonderful people - thanks to them for blessing you. I am also thankful for what God is doing in Ireland. And - what about a new blog?????
