Houston, We Have A Problem...

We are here in Baytown TX, right on the outskirts of Houston at Garth Road Baptist Church with pastor Jim Lamb. He has had us busy as they are preparing to move into a new church building, and with that came us moving truck loads of things. We have gotten a great work out carrying everything from boxes to pianos. We have really enjoyed our time here and it has been a great blessing. When we finally cleared out a house that was used for storage our eyes lit up when we were told we could tear it down. So we got after it and took down every wall in the house.

We were able to celebrate the 4th of July with many people from the church. We bought some fireworks and put on a "professional" show. We had cheers coming from around the neighborhood. Our time here has been a great blessing. Please continue to pray for us as we will be traveling a long distance to Georgia.

One Church, Two Men, Countless Mosquitoes, And...Gators

Well we have arrived safely into Pascagula Mississippi at Bible Baptist Church. Pastor Dan Black and his family gave us a warm welcome. This is our first time in the state of Mississippi and we both love it. We started out the week working hard repairing some hard wood floor.

Then we started out the next day going with the pastor and another man from the church to a swamp and took a long hike. We were on the lookout for all kinds of animals. The area was very pretty and it was nice to relax take in the scenery and wildlife and enjoy the day.

Pastor Black has kept us very busy but we have had a wonderful time so far. He even gave us the chance to preach Wednesday night which was a blessing to the both of us. Thank you everyone for your prayers and we ask that you would continue to pray for as we will be keeping busy.

Crossroad's new paint job

We've had the opportunity to do many things around the church but one thing that seems to stick out in our mind is the painting we've been doing. We got to the church and on day one we painted a class room.

Then at the start of our 2nd week here we've been preparing for their upcoming vaction Bible school, and part of that is painting a backdrop they have for the program. We were able to use our creativity and for two guys that aren't very artsy it turned out looking pretty good. With this vacation Bible school we were also able to contruct a shack they have as a prop. We are really enjoying our time here and feel we are accomplishing a good amount.

Goodbye to RiverEast Hello Crossroads

We were able to leave RiverEast Baptist Church seeing great things. Our two weeks there were to prepare for the pack-a-pew service and God blessed with 182 in attendance and three souls saved. We are grateful for everyone in the church and how they made us feel right at home.

As we were sad to leave RiverEast we were excited to come down to Mobile AL arriving Crossroads Baptist Church. Pastor Aaron Smith and the members here have given us a warm welcome and we are longing to see what the Lord will do while we are here.
