Looking Back
2009 is almost gone! As a whole, we have seen growth in 2009 - spiritual and numerical. Almost every adult Christian male has spoken this past year and we have some wonderful Bible class teachers. We have a great group of college students scattered across the country who remain faithful to the Lord. We have just launched a new Work/visitation program that is going to help us in our work for the Lord. We have committed to sending our House to House/Heart to Heart to over 4,100 homes in the next year. We need your help financially to make this happen and not cut back anything else. The men are considering the best way to continue to work with our young people. We have a great group of men working together providing leadership until we are able to appoint elders. Our men’s meetings are always a joy!
It is good for us to look back individually. Where are we today (spiritually) compared to this time last year. Are we pleased with our progress? Is the Lord pleased with our progress? We read in 2 Corinthians 13:5 “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. . .” Let’s continue to grow and make improvement!
