Where HAVE you been?

It certainly has been a while since my last blog! I know what you're thinking...you're wondering, "Where have you been?"

Well, I can answer that! I have been out of town for several days speaking to churches in Annapolis, MD, and in Delaware. I was given the privilege of preaching in the morning services (not one service, but three!) at Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Annapolis this past Sunday. EP has been a BIG supporter of ours after the hurricane. They have supported us financially and prayerfully (even holding specific prayer meetings just for us) and by sending down multiple teams of volunteers to help us in the community (they have another team coming down in late June). I was able to thank them personally on behalf of our church.

If you're interested in listening to my sermon, you can tune in on their website, www.epannapolis.org under the "resources" link.

I also was able to preach before and then give an update to the churches in Heritage Presbytery. As you'll remember, the Heritage Presbytery churches (17 churches in total, I think) adopted us after the hurricane and helped us build Camp Hope and start the rebuilding ministry that we now run ourselves. They have been our single biggest supporters and encouragers. I was able to thank them (profusely), to encourage them with what they have helped to accomplish down here (humanly speaking), and to update them on our current needs and situation.

It was a long trip (I got in late last night) but well worth it! Please join me in praying for EP in Annapolis and for the churches in Heritage Presbytery. Pray that the Lord will bless them in every way. But pray also that the Lord will bring fruit from my visit, according to His will.

It's good to be home!
