Revival In Pictures - Citronelle, Alabama

Today is the day for our Revival In Pictures post from Citronelle, Alabama. We have had a tremendous time here with our friends this week. Pastor Darius Templeton, Sis. Kim and all these fine Cedar Creek folks have treated us so wonderful and kind.

It will be sad to leave Saturday morning but we have one more service before we pack up and hit the road. Tonight is Youth Rally night and it starts at 7:30. We are looking forward to seeing some more friends.

I hope you enjoy all the smiling faces of our friends. We sure have enjoyed seeing them again.

Pastor Darius Templeton

Sis. Kim Templeton and Kelly Jo

Speaking of friends, we had Bro. Farrell Stearns with us Sunday morning and that was a special treat.

Bro. Jason and Sis. Karen Freeman brought their children and came to be with us on Monday night. They drove all the way from Ellisville, Mississippi to be in service and we appreciate it so much. We will get to see them again when we are in Ellisville in several weeks and hopefully before then.

Bro. Jeffery and Sis. Rebecca Blankenship and their girls came to be in service with us on Monday night too. We knew they had been preaching about 90 minutes away and we were hoping they would get to come. It was great to see them.

The Blankenships did keep a secret from us though. Sis. Rebecca's Dad and Mom, Bro. Larry and Sis. Rosemary Landress came with them! We had no idea they were any where near this part of the country at all. We barely missed them in Oklahoma and we did not know when we would have the chance to see them again. We are thrilled they came Monday.

Bro. Landress gave us a Word from the Lord in his testimony Monday night. I have asked the Lord to place it deep in my heart and let it charge me and change me.

Bro. and Sis. Lloyd are great to attend revivals all over this area and we were blessed to have them with us two nights this week. 

That is our Revival In Pictures. Thank you for stopping in today.

New Classrooms For GoodNews Christian School In Abeokuta, Nigeria

New Classrooms For GoodNews Christian School In Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria

A few weeks ago I wrote a summary of our November trip to Nigeria. I mentioned that we left some money to finish the new classroom building at GoodNews Christian School. We had helped with the expense in the beginning and I knew before we went that they were close to completion. We left home with the intention of taking enough with us to get the job done. 

Here are two pictures of the new building from our day long visit to the school while we were in Nigeria.

Bro. Shobanke sent an email last week with this picture of the completed building.

It is beautiful!

These new classrooms will give the school just enough space for the children they have now. Once the enrollment grows (And the enrollment will grow), they will be overcrowded again. This is the last open piece of ground they own so the only way to move is UP. They built this building with the future in mind. The foundation and walls are prepared for a second story when the time comes. 

We intend to be prepared to help with the second story of this building when they are ready to proceed. We are also helping them pray that one of the properties on either side of the school will become available at a reasonable price. That would be way cool too.

Bro. Shobanke sent a note along with the picture. He wanted me to make sure I said thank you to all the great folks that make all of this possible. I will post his letter of appreciation below so he can tell you himself.

As all of you must realize, we could not help them without you sending us, so all the real thanks goes to God's people. May God bless you for loving the saints in Nigeria and taking the time and effort to love them through us. If you want to know more about our friends in Nigeria you can click our Missions-Nigeria page at any time.

May God bless you all.
