Pastor's Blog

Vera Bosarge asks that we pray for her brother, David, who lives in North Carolina.  He was taken to the hospital last night with many health problems related to his heart and lungs.  Plans call for him to receive a pacemaker today.

Just received (6:45AM) the following from Jerry & Gloria:

Pastor,
Greetings in the Name of The Lord.

I apologize for not sending you any updates but Internet service is very sporadic. Even now as I type this I have no connection but am composing this trusting that I will get a opportunity to send it soon.

The conference is in its 2nd day and is going well. The main purpose seems to be to inspire the workers to greater goals in their ministries. Alex has set a goal of having at least one church in every major city by 2025 and PTL to have sent at least ten Missionaries out from India by that time.

The other speakers are fine men of God. So much better and more experienced than me in this type of conference. One is a Pastor from Ethiopia. Very dynamic. Their messages seemed to focus on “group inspiration”?? The Call of the ministry. “God has a plan for PTL.” etc. my messages are about our individual relationship to Christ. I wonder if they are out of place here but I have to speak what The Lord has placed on my heart. I wish you were here for some guidance but I am trusting that The Lord will be all I need each moment.

A good portion of this mornings session was spent inspiring the young people (13-20 years old) to listen for God’s calling on their lives to the Ministry. There is a very large number of families here. Beautiful children and ladies in their most colorful saris.

Very beautiful in this part if India. Actually a lot like Guat. except hotter. Lovely mountains across the skyline. Groves and groves of coconut palms and other tropicals.

The food has been ALL Indian. Very spicy. And of course it’s “tea time” every afternoon. Hot tea with milk and its 90 + degrees.

Gloria has been great. I am extremely blessed to have her with me and she has given her heart and her all to everyone here especially the women and children. Alex is setting aside a special session for her to share with the women.

Alex’s son has a phone that can set up a mobile hot spot. Hopefully I can get this off to you soon.

Thank you for you prayers!! Blessings to you and all the church.
