Missouri Bound!!

God is So Good! We had a delightful and spiritfilled weekend in Missouri. On Friday we traveled up to Missouri and spent the evening with good friends in the Kansas City area. Then we got up on Saturday morning and headed out to Grant City. We met with the search team for lunch and began planning the rest of the weekend.

Sunday began with a breakfast - then Sunday School, followed by worship. I preached on Acts 3:1-10, "The Church in Action - Do You See Me Sitting Here?" It's the passage about the begger who set outside of the Temple Gate called Beautiful. The preaching went well and I received many compliments.

After the service we had a wonderful Dinner - It is their custom to have a fellowship dinner on the first Sunday of every month! There are some awesome cooks in Grant City.

After the dinner - there was a time for questions and answers - Holly and I were both able to share and respond to their questions. Everything went very well, and following that time, the church then was asked to vote. There were 36 members who stayed for the meeting, and the vote went as follows - 35 yes and 1 no.

We then accepted, and the rest is history! We are excited, and have already fallen in love with the congregation and the community. While there, we stayed in a wonderful cabin on a lake - it was so restful, and was so hard to leave.

We are planning on moving the first week of December - and December 7th will be my first Sunday there. Please pray for good weather conditions - as weather in Missouri during December can be bruttle.

We are so elated to be going back HOME to the midwest, and are ever so grateful to be going back into the ministry.

BLESSINGS TO YOUR WEEK!
