International Service

Good morning everyone. I just took my morning walk and prayer. That's something I enjoy.

This coming Sunday, I will be ministering at my home church, the Green Ridge Assembly of God in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The evening service will be special for it is our quarterly International service. My home church allows a Brazilian congregation and an Indonesian congregation to use our church facilities, so between the three churches, there is always something going on in our church. Whenever there is a 5th Sunday, all three churches gather together to worship the Lord. I'm planning on preaching a message entitles, Jesus Is A Cross-Culture Lord. Pray that the Lord will bless our services.

God's blessings to each of you.

Back To New York

Good morning everyone. It's a beautiful August morning.

This coming Sunday, I will be ministering at the Newburgh Assembly of God in Newburgh, New York. This was the last church that I served as a youth pastor prior to entering the evangelistic field. It's nice to go back and see friends. Please pray that the messages I preach will touch and encourage the body of Christ at this church.

This past week, I had the opportunity to see some beautiful country in New England. All creation speaks of the glory of God. His majesty and strength is revealed in the mountains, lakes and trees. May you take a moment today and see the wonder of God all around you.

Thank you for all your prayers.

Long Journey

Good morning everyone. It's an enjoyable summer morning here in Taylor.

This coming Sunday through Wednesday, I will be ministering at Calvary Assembly of God in Laconia, New Hampshire. This is a brand new church for me so I ask that you pray that my ministry might be warmly welcomed and that the Lord would just have His way. I also ask that you pray my journey will be safe. I think this might be the farthest church I go to all year.

Life and death. Blessing and cursing. That are the choices given to us by the Lord in Deuteronomy, where I'm presently reading. I choose life in Jesus Christ. I choose His blessing...to be led by the Spirit of God and not the philosophies of this world. To live is Christ.

Be alive in Jesus today.

A Familiar Church

Hello everyone. It's a grass cutting day again.

This coming Sunday through Wednesday, I will be preaching at a church that has become very dear to me over the years, the Tunkhannock Assembly of God in Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania. Pastor Rick Womer graciously opens his pulpit to me every August. Please pray that the Lord will bless these meetings and that people will be refreshed in God's presence.

Can you hear Him? He is talking. He is in the still small whisper. He is calling and wooing us to Him. I hope that each of you will hear our Savior today. Blessings!

In The Area

Good morning. It's nice to take a morning walk on a sunny summer day.

This coming Sunday, I will be ministering at the Dickson City Assembly of God in Dickson City, Pennsylvania, which is not too far from my home. It's nice to preach and still be able to stay at home. Please pray that the Lord will bless and touch people with the Word of God

Also, tonight I will be speaking to the youth in my home church at their weekly youth service. Our youth pastor, Pastor Brian Hinkley has been wanting me to do this for a while. Please pray that the youth will respond to the truth of the Word of God.

I've become very disillusioned with the evening news. I used to enjoy watching it but anymore, I find myself shaking my head at the events in our present society. But then I remember that God is in control. I just finished reading Revelation. Isn't it wonderful to know that soon, Jesus is coming for His very own and we will spend eternity with Him. That's good news...the type of news my spirit longs to hear.

Have a good day and a wonderful eternity.
