I’m back from New England safe and sound. The presentations went great up there, the response was incredible, and it is my hope that many good seeds were sown and will sprout into something great. The New Englanders wanted me to thank you for allowing me to be away from LifePoint to spend time with them. Thank you for your support of BRR and your many prayers offered up for the cause.
A special thank you to Gary Davis, Val & Zak Tharp, the stage team, and everyone else who worked hard to make last week’s service go so well. You guys are the greatest!
Katie Lehew has taken some great photographs of the Women's "Taste of the Holidays" event. Click here to view and download your favs. Katie, thank you for those photos.
Also, for those who are artsy, Elaine Keesey has provided a downloadable coloring packet with scriptures. Click here if you would like to download and print that coloring packet. Thanks Elaine.
A special thank you to everyone who helped to fill the trailer going to NC with items that will no doubt be of great assistance to the victims. Thank you to Sue, Teri and everyone else for making it happen. Sue is on the road right now with the pickup and trailer loaded down for those in need. They are also taking a 26-ft travel trailer for a family with children whose home was completely destroyed. Please pray for these rescue efforts and for safe travel!
As Gary shared last week, LifePoint was able to purchase a number of hours of hyperbaric sessions at a major discount for those who could use that type of treatment. Time spent in a hyperbaric chamber has proved to work wonders for numerous ailments. If you could use some of the treatments and would like to take advantage of these low prices, see Gary Davis or Val Tharp.
Coming events you need to mark on your calendars:
· Nov 3 – church-wide group photograph immediately after the service
· Nov 5 – national election. Pray for America and for right to prevail – and don’t forget to vote early if you can. (Click here for early voting details.)
· Nov 10 – my final BRR presentation for 2024. Pray for the folks in Lawton as they prepare and invite people to attend. Pray God will use us for His glory.
· Dec 8 – LifePoint annual budget review and proposal meeting during the 10:00am Bible Study hour. (Once Gary Davis has the budget ready, you can request a copy a few weeks prior to the meeting.)
Here’s what’s on tap for tomorrow:
Pastor’s Class, 10:00am – We will continue the lesson series, “The Final Judgement & the Lake of Fire”, with lesson 3: “Are hell and the lake of fire the same?”
Worship/preaching service, 11:00am – We will continue the message series, “God & Government – what every Christian must know”, with part 4: “The myth of separation of church & state”.
