Living Word Baptist Church Update
Things are busier than ever, even though over the winter months (with all the bad weather) we didn’t have as many special events taking place. Our people have concentrated on going out and visiting those who have expressed an interest in our church. We have also been going out prayer walking neighborhoods while handing out door hangers and talking to as many as possible. A couple people from the congregation (primarily Dave Grove - one of our faithful deacons) have joined me in going door to door when weather permitted. As a result, God continues to add to our congregation! Since January our church roster has grown to fifty-seven. It was rough for a few weeks with attendance dropping off. I guess Satan didn’t like what was going on in our neighborhood! But, God rallied the church and things have gotten much better. Our weekly attendance last month increased to an average of forty-two. Most importantly, since the first of the year we have continued to see many souls come to the Lord. Praise God!
In February, Living Word hosted our first movie night that was open to the community. We had popcorn, chips, and candy for the concessions, as well as coffee and juice to wash it down. The movies that we showed were the animation UP and Faith like Potatoes. We had 27 people attend!
In March, we participated in the Global Impact Celebration (GIC) at Urbancrest Baptist Church. Living Word Baptist Church had its own display and I was blessed to be able to share what we are doing at LWBC with Pastor Tom’s Sunday school class. Many of our folks attended the GIC services for the first time. They thought it was great! The parade of countries (flags) and everyone in costume was greatly moving for them, and of course it was great to hear the speakers proclaim the Word. A couple of the children from LWBC even handed out literature for the GIC. Many enjoyed talking with missionaries one-on-one for the first time, but for some the Taste of the World was their favorite part.
In May, we were blessed to have the UBC hand bell choir come again to share with us their gifts in music. It is always as treat to have them in our services. We were also blessed to have Aaron Bogan and his family visit Living Word. He brought a wonderful and moving sermon that challenged the hearts of many. Some are still talking about how hearing Aaron has impacted them.
May also brought Innocent & Ruth Kiiza (national missionaries from Uganda) to our church. They gave their testimony of how God called them into missions, and what He is doing in their lives and the lives of the Ugandans they minister to on Buvuma Island. Innocent has insisted that when able, LWBC must send a mission team to Uganda.
It’s exciting to see what God is doing at Living Word Baptist Church, and how He is at work in the lives of many in our community. Pamela and I would like to invite anyone who would like to keep up with this exciting time to be on our mailing list so that we can share future events with all our friends and family.
Please pray! Pray for Living Word that God will continue to add to the church those who will be saved and those who will serve! Pray for Pam and me that God will provide for our needs!
Blessings to Everyone!
