Tomorrow we head to Phoenix for a two-day church planting conference we are helping to host. Please pray for God’s blessing, and thank you for giving to church planting through your offerings! It’s a missions investment outside of our church, but we are seeking first the kingdom, and that’s what matters most!
“I’m going to stay in the church’s missions apartment in Phoenix for a few days of planning, but I’ll be back on Sunday to enjoy Bro. Rocky Harrill’s preaching as he is here with the Assurance Trio from Heartland Baptist Bible College.” He’s a favorite around here!
I’ll get back in time to welcome Bro. Alex Del Cid on staff. He arrives June 12, and will serve as our staff intern for at least one year, and we will see if God continues to open doors for a future youth pastor position. Becoming debt free will open some opportunities there.
I’m also excited about two upcoming sermon series:
Pastor Wm. Rench will preach a series on Sunday mornings and Bro. Zack Roberts will preach Sunday nights. The schedule is a little disjointed because of some family travels (i.e. Dad preaches June 14, then I preach Father’s Day, then he preaches again, etc.), but I love when our church can be helped by many godly men from within.
Speaking of godly men, we will also get to hear from Immanuel Estacuy, Marcus Valerio, Paul Heyman, Juan Rodriguez, and Si Rangel throughout the summer. We are blessed. I have said before that in church history in the days of persecution, when pastors would get arrested or killed, the church was expected to continue as other godly men stepped up to lead the people in God’s Word. May we develop men here to do the same.
