Central Pennsylvania

Good morning everyone. The sun is trying to peek out after a night of rain. Fall is in the air.

This coming Sunday through Wednesday, I will minister in a crusade at the Hillsdale Assembly of God in Hillsdale, Pennsylvania. What is unique is another church, the Kinport Assembly of God, is joining with us and the Wednesday night service will be at their church. That's pretty cool. I think Jesus would like that very much. Unity is a key for the moving of the Spirit of the Lord. Please pray that the Lord will touch many in these meetings.

Last night, I was thinking about the words to an old chorus whose words go like this, "Sweet Jesus, sweet Jesus, what a wonder you are..." Do any of you know that song? Every now and then, some of the older choruses that I learned during my growing-up years in church creep back into my memory. Fondly I think back to those days. Yet I am thankful that we do not live on memories alone. Jesus is a present Savior. He is not an out-of-date God. He is with us today. Hold to that thought and rest in Him.

God's best to you all!

Heading Down The Road

Good evening everyone. I spent the day doing things around my house to get ready for the colder weather. That thought doesn't settle well with me.

This coming Sunday, I will minister at Glad Tidings Assembly of God in McClellandtown, Pennsylvania. Please pray that I will have a word of encouragement for this congregation. Also pray that my journey to and from will be safe.

I wonder what the Lord thinks of the leaders of the nations of this world. I think of the words of Isaiah 40:15, "Behold, the nations are as a drop in a bucket." Our God is the God of the universe, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He will reign for all eternity. Makes me glad that I'm a citizen of heaven.

Have a good one...at eternity, that is, in Jesus.

Ladies, Here I Come

Good morning, everyone. I am trying to adjust to the fact that summer is over and fall is here. I already miss summer...

I would especially appreciate your prayers this coming weekend. The Lord has given me the opportunity to be the main speaker at the Potomac District Ladies Fall Getaway on Friday and Saturday at the Potomac Park Campgrounds in Falling Waters, West Virginia. I feel that God has given me the messages to preach for the women who will be in attendance. Please join with me in prayer that the Holy Spirit will move mightily at this event. I will also be ministering at Hedgesville Assembly of God, Hedgesville, West Virginia and Marlowe Assembly of God, Falling Waters, West Virginia on Sunday.

Seasons change. Every year we watch the warm weather slip away as fall appears. I am so thankful that Jesus never changes. He is always the same. What a constant friend we have in Jesus.

His blessings to all of you today.

My Home Church

Hello everyone. The remains of Ernesto are coming up the coast today but for now there is sun peaking through out my front window.

This coming Sunday is a tradition. On Labor Day weekend for the last several years, I minister at my home church, the Green Ridge Assembly of God. Pastor Dave Twiss is gracious to share his pulpit with me and I love ministering at home. Please pray that the messages I preach will stir people's hearts to following after God. We need more of Him.

Next week, I will be on vacation at Dewey Beach, Delaware so forgive me for not sending an update at that time. I'm just so looking forward to a little R & R. The beach sounds very inviting at this time.

So God bless each of you and keep the umbrella handy.
