Blessings

Just got in from a full day of church! No, we didn't set a record this time, but the Lord had His way in our midst. We definitely get excited when the numbers are increasing, but actually are more touched by seeing the Lord working in lives. We were happy to have 3 brand new guests and several returning ones. The Lord has provided two more praise singers - they helped us today in service and did fantastic! We rearranged our chairs this week to make room for more people. We now have 70 seats in the audience and 5 up front. We don't have a center aisle now, just the two outside ones. Tighter... but we can seat more.

Tonight we attended the mother church and Karla sang a special. She did great! I am so blessed to have her by my side. I couldn't do this without her...or the boys. They are such a help and so willing to do what God asks. We had outreach yesterday and the boys covered about double the houses all the rest of us did...on their roller-blades!

Our bus is now fixed and inspected....and it was FREE! A gentleman who lives in Pflugerville, whose wife attends Bro. Bernard's church, did all the repairs, had it inspected and even installed a fire extinguisher. One company quoted us $2500 for the job! Thank the Lord for providing! The gentleman said, "When you are in one of those red-hot prayer meetings, just remember to pray for me." Now we are working on getting it painted and lettered. We are believing that by the time we get it ready to pick up kids, we will have the space to teach them! I will post pictures of the transformation as it happens.

I hear rumblings that another land deal is coming together. I claim it.
