PRAISE GOD! 20 KIDS! ONE SOUL SAVED!



Day one of our VBS at the Brownwood Housing Authority was a huge success!!! We had 20 kids and one adult from the apartment complex, and nine volunteers (ourselves included) for a total of 30 people. One girl, a teenager, accepted Jesus as her personal Savior within the first :30 minutes. She wants to be baptized and join our mission. We talked with her mom and everything is go... now we just have to find a place to do the baptizing.

We are expecting her to attend our home services, as well as our neighbors. If all goes well, we could have as many as 10 in our home tomorrow morning. Thank you for your prayers.

A special thanks go out to our partners, Ron and Betty Shaw of Midland, John and Teresa Kight of Coleman, Harold and Sylvia Acker of Jacksonville, and Victoria Williams of Brownwood. A very special thanks goes out to my wife Jessica, whose logistical planning and gathering of material and craft supplies, as well as food made this day possible.

We also received special live offerings from Wyndrock MBC of Abilene and Memorial MBC of Rusk that went toward this VBS. Donations of Good News Games materials are arriving daily, and we thank the churches who are supporting our VBS through these donations. A complete list of donors will be announced at a later time.

Thank you so much for your support.
