WOW! (That's the Hebrew word for "I am thrilled at how richly God is blessing us right now!")

WOW, indeed! Last Wednesday Misty was impressed to take the AWANA teaching time and share her testimony. She emailed many of us for prayer - and we prayed - and God answered. Sixteen young people prayed to accept the Lord at the invitation! (That is a lot of follow-up to do and a lot of potential to touch their family members as well.) Pray that we will be able to have an exciting baptism service for them soon, and that many others will come to know the Lord at that service.

WOW! We are only three weeks into our "Tearing Down the Wall of Debt" Campaign, and God has already moved on our hearts to give over $13,000.00 toward the goal of being debt free by 12-27-2009.

Last Sunday, we gave over $4,500.00 in the general offering; $830.00 in a special love offering for a family with an immediate need; $850.00 for VBS through the dessert auction; and, we gave $2,900.00 to "Tearing Down the Wall of Debt!" If your are counting... and I bet you are... that is $9,080.00 on a 3rd Sunday. WOW!

It was great to have so many of you and so many visitors with us for worship; especially to have a dear family back with us for the first time in a while! I am not absolutely sure, but I think we had about as many people last Sunday in worship as we had last Easter... (Yup, you guessed it) WOW!

Please pray for God's richest blessings to be continually poured out upon us. God continues to bless us with his "anointing presence!" I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL SUNDAY! WOW!
