November Missions Conference

We just ended our missions conference for this fall. What a blessed time it was! This year we had five families from five different churches. The special thing about each of these churches is that each one was planted by our very own church, Maranatha Baptist Church of Shelby, NC. What a thrill it was to hear reports from each church, to see how the Lord has so richly blessed, to hear many stories of souls being saved! God is so good!
The first church we helped to plant is Emmanuel Baptist Church in Keene, NH. Unfortunately, I do not have a picture of the Maxwell family. They are the church planters and have been there for seven years now.
I am not sure which order the next three came in. But have church planters in:
Reno, Nevada – The Lynn Family started Grace Baptist Church

Winchester, VA – The Wakowiak Family started Heritage Baptist Church

Lewiston, ME – The Kelly Family started Lewiston Baptist Church

Columbus, NC – The Deatrick Family started Crossroads Baptist Church

The Town Family are new missionaries getting ready to start a church in Philadelphia to the Arabic Speaking People. What a great presentation they had and what a needy field this is!

Wednesday’s Wisdom

1 Kings 8:61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day. How much do we give? Psalms 96:8-9 “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name:” (Give Praise and worship) “bring an offering, and come into his courts.” (Give personal wealth) “O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.” (Give practical witness) “ God wants our praise. The world needs our practical witness of a holy life. and we need to give our personal wealth. God does not need our gifts-but we need to give. The greatest gift we can give is to give our lives to His service. ~The above is from My Morning Manna, vol. 3, p. 226, by Ed Nelson

50 Reasons Why I Love the Lord

I recently had a birthday, but more important is my spiritual birthday. I am so thankful to be born again. This is my 50th year in the Lord! To think that the Lord saved me and keeps me is beyond my comprehension! I am so filled with awe and gratitude to my Lord! Since this is my 50th year to be saved, I wrote down 50 reasons why I love Him. It was not a hard task. There are so many reasons to love the Lord. I cannot think of one reason why the Lord would want to love me, but I am so thankful that He does. He only is our HOPE. I have been so overwhelmed with the Lord's love for me that I felt like I needed to share it with others. If you don't know the Lord, please don't delay. You will never regret His love for you. He first loved me. He sent His only begotten son to die in my place. He forgives all my sin He saved me by His shed blood He has never left nor forsaken me. He is ever merciful and His merc...
