We have had three services at Richton so far this year and all three have been powerful. Sunday morning and Sunday Night the response at the altar was tremendous. Last night (Monday) the power went out just after folks had responded to the altar call and stayed out until after church was over. We still had a great altar call with the Lord meeting folks right on time. After church a young lady told the Pastor she had asked Christ into her heart and that she was now saved. She said she couldn't wait to get to school and tell all her friends. Praise God for that! We are looking forward to some more great services this week. We will try to get some pictures of the folks and food up tonight or tomorrow.
We made the trip from Purcell, OK Friday night and Saturday with no problems. It was about 700 miles. Saturday night was a different story though. I went to bed early and woke up about 20 minutes later with the worse pain I've ever had. It was in my lower left side and kept me rolling, praying and screaming for nearly 7 hours. Long story short the Lord helped and I was able to rest some and preach both services Sunday. Kelly Jo and Odie contacted several folks during the night and I sure appreciate their prayers. The predominant opinion seems to be that I probably had a kidney stone. Now this comes from all of us folks that received our medical license from a box of Corn Flakes so only God really knows. But whatever it was, if I never get another one it will be too soon for me! I do seriously praise God for His help. I know He was near us all night long.
Thanks for keeping us in your prayers.
