Pastor's Blog

Word came shortly after 7:00PM last night that Pastor Ronnie Maxie has passed from this life and entered Heaven.  Pray for Elizabeth, the boys and their families during this difficult time.  Obviously, arrangements pending.

Bill Kendrick sent word last night that Robert & Roseanne’s granddaughter had been taken to the hospital due to excessive bleeding.  She is only one week from having had surgery.  Not sure if she was admitted but do ask that you join me in praying for her, the medical folks and the family.

Deidra posted a blog on the Shining Light Abroad Ministries website yesterday.  I am told that there are pictures on the GRACE Ministries facebook page.  Why?  All of the older girls from Colegio JET are enjoying a stay in the city and they are having a blast!  Special thanks to each person who has given to make this a reality.  The proverbial ball on this outing began to roll on October 3, 2024 at the GRACE Gathering in Zeeland, Michigan.  Good stuff!

I sat through one of Bro. Abel’s team devotionals last night.  Short, but strong!

I do not have an explanation but it has been my experience over the past couple of weeks that folks have been extremely gracious, kind and very much in a thanksgiving spirit.  Refreshing!

Lord willing, I hope to spend some time with Mama on Friday.  Also, Lord willing, I plan to be in the pulpit on Sunday.

I pray that you will have a great Thanksgiving Day with Jesus.  “Always be thankful!”
