I am so blessed to have had grandparents who loved the Lord!  I am so proud of my parents for turning to Christ and of their powerful testimonies! It is such a privilege to see their names on THE LIST, and know that they are still serving the Lord with their testimonies.  It is good to be able to give something back to the ones who gave so much to me!

What a wonderful gift to give to the Body of Christ, to show those who finished strong.  It is an encouragement to us all, to continue to press on towards the goal.  Go to add a name page, and follow the directions for adding a memorial.

The nursing home where I have several friends has a devotional service on Tuesday evenings. I love going! We sing old hymns, study scripture, and pray for one another. Often, members of the community come and share their talents through song, preaching,etc.

Tonight, I assisted a gentleman back to his room. He was very feeble and had poor vision. Although I had seen him at services, I had not yet become aquainted. After he was back in his room, he gave me a hug. Only, instead of his feeble arms, I felt the strong and secure arms of Jesus! God used this gentleman to show His love to me!  So, who was helping whom?  Isn’t that the way God works in our lives? We think we are serving, and yet we receive much more than we could ever give!  What an amazing Savior!

What about you? Have you met Jesus? Have you accepted His free gift of salvation through His blood? If not, or if you want to know more, check out our salvation page. If you have questions or prayer needs, send a message and we will answer promptly and help in any way we can. If you are part of the body of Christ, add your name to the list! Let’s show the world how strong this vine and branches is! Let’s encourage each other with our life verses and our names!  God bless you all!

“Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.”  Matthew 9:37

As I go into nursing homes to visit, I see so many lonely and lost souls. Each day, as I pray for my friends, I worry that I will not be able to visit with all of them in the time I am there. If only there was someone to come alongside me to share in this task!  Truly, there is a plentiful harvest; in nursing homes, in hospitals, in prisons, in homeless shelters, at work, in the circle of our friends and families. We need workers who are not afraid to step out in faith, not be ashamed or afraid, and who are willing to take a stand for Jesus! Let’s work on this harvest! Let’s step out and extend His love to the world!  Put your name on the List, and make sure HIS name is on your heart (see salvation page).   ARE YOU ON THE LIST?
