SEPTEMBER IS A BUSY MONTH FOR THE LORD

The Picture of the rainbow was taken by Saundra at the Glorieta Conference Center.


Let me bring you up to date on where we have been and what we have been doing since our last report on September 1, 2007.

On Sunday the 2nd we were with Pastor Dan Barnes and the folks at Lighthouse Baptist Church in Nicholasville, Kentucky. We had a great time with the folks at Lighthouse Baptist. They have supported this ministry for many years now.

After the services at Lighthouse Baptist Church we drove to Gaylord, Michigan to visit with Alesha and Brother John Seay and their children, our grandchildren Sarah, Cynthia, John Mark and Karissa. Brother John, our son-in-law, is the Dean of Students at Grace Baptist Bible College. Alesha is in the Accounting Department at the college. They accepted these positions on the 1st of September. We now have both our daughters in Michigan (how did that happen). There must be a great need in Michigan for Saundra and I to have to send nine missionaries to Michigan. We have two son-in-laws, two daughters and five grandchildren in Michigan. We feel this is a great sacrifice for the ministry.

After we left Gaylord, Michigan we drove to Burton, Michigan to be with Brother Mark Forester (our son-in-law, Andrea (our daughter) and Tyler (our grandson). They invited us to their Annual Homecoming. They are in full-time Evangelism and Gospel Music. After their Homecoming we all came back together to Kentucky. We attended the National Quartet Convention and worked in the office all week. I had radio programs to get out and nine up and coming God and Country meeting to prepare for after we get back from the National Home School Conferences in New Mexico.

On Monday September 17th I had eye surgery to remove some blood vessels behind my left eye. This was for complication of my diabetes due to the Agent Orange I was in Viet Nam. On Tuesday the 18th we flew to Albuquerque, New Mexico to begin the back to back conference for state home school leaders and the national conference for home education sponsored by Home School Legal Defense Association. The first conference was in Glorieta Conference Center in Glorieta, New Mexico. The second conference is in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We will be back home in Bardstown on Sunday, September 30th for special services at our home church – Nelson County Baptist Church.
