Sunday Night Unwind

What a privilege!

Today was definitely a God day!

The band sounded good today and "How Great Is Our God" was powerful in worship! There was a good sense of expectation from the get go!

We had a guest speaker today, Mike Froitzheim. He is a missionary who provides glasses and other eye care in some of the poorest areas of the middle east into Asia. He shared his story of the grace and power of God throughout some extraordinary circumstances in his life. All I can say, is in the 1980's it was not a good idea to be in a car with this guy as many serious accidents as he was in! Wow! The miracles God performed saving his life over and over again! Since a life changing encounter with God 15 years ago, he and his wife have been a part of some incredible adventures as they have seen so many miraculous healings around the world. A couple of dozen people came forward to be prayed for and a few committed their life to Christ today! I NEVER get tired of that! It is what we are about!

I am looking forward to hearing the results of what God was doing today in that time of prayer.

Before service someone shared with me a great account of the blessing and provision of God. This person is struggling financially, as so many are. They were trying to figure out how they were going to give their tithe and still be able to put gas in their car for this week. In the middle of their dilemna, a perfect stranger provided for them a full tank of gas! God takes care of every detail when we trust Him!

This afternoon we enjoyed a great lunch with some friends from out of town. I recommend the Philly Cheesesteak at the Rusty Bucket. :-)

Then we had our annual members meeting at the church followed by a wonderful meal. We elected four new board members: Ove Fladburg, Allen Markarian, Christopher Minter, and Don Rowles. I am honored to have these men join the three that are remaining on the board; Jim Barnett, Scott Crawford, and Frank Howse. A huge "THANK YOU" goes to Dave Ewing, Cori LeMasters, and Adam Scheetz for their service on the board.

Looking forward to a fantastic week and I'm already getting pumped about next Sunday as we start the series, "What if...?
