It is amazing how quickly the end of the year comes and the beginning of a New Year starts. I have found myself trying to catch up in all my activities. I noticed that I was way behind in the blog.
The old year had a great ending as we were able to finish up the church ministry feeling like we ended on a high note considering the economy. We finished slightly ahead of last years giving despite being down over 15% heading into the final months of the year. We thank God that all things work to his glory and not of our own. We thank Him for providing us with the money and people but most of all the ability to spend his money on some things are church had been praying for. We thank Him for the new zero turn mower, the ice maker in the fellowship hall, and many other additions that end up well over $14,000.00. How much more can we brag about the Lord?
Well we can brag how we started the New Year with 1 baptism, 3 new people who joined the church that day, and many new visitors coming. We are in prayer asking the Lord to continue to show us His way in our ministry here at Grace. The Lord deserves all the credit for without him we are nothing. I am so glad I am part of a living organism rather a member of an organization. I am sure glad I can sing before the Lord in all circumstances knowing that my God is in control of all things.
We look forward to a great 2010 and we ask you to continue to pray for us as we ministry to a sick and dying world who is in need of the great Physician.
