This has been the second year that I have been a part of Lighthouse Baptist Church’s missions conference. Perhaps it’s because they really like me??? Or perhaps it’s because they had not yet met Mrs. Baran. Whatever the reason, we enjoyed being with our friends again. Brother Richard Rawls was the main speaker and did a wonderful job. He has been a real blessing to me since I started deputation.
This past Sunday marked 27 years since our church was started by Pastor Kohl. I am so thankful for our home church and their faithfulness. This is the church God used to grow me and prepare me for the ministry. It was a great day of fellowship and several visitors attended. There were some who even received Christ. What a great testimony on such a significant day. We cannot become lazy is these days that grow darker and darker. There is still a vast amount of work to do. Praise the Lord for our church and for all the work God has done through it but we cannot become satisfied with what we have accomplished. Our work on earth is not complete until we see Christ and in that moment I’m sure we’ll wish we had done so much more.

We were invited to set up our display board during the Buckeye Conference at Stowfalls Baptist Church in Ohio. It was largely attended and provided us with a new list of contacts. We pray this will open new doors for us on deputation. We were also surprised to see many of our friends there as well. It was an encouraging two days. Please pray the Lord would continue to guide us to the right churches!
Praying you all had a blessed Easter Sunday with your church and families! As the world celebrates, steeped in religion and tradition we take this time to remember what Easter truly is for. A remembrance of our Lord and His marvelous works. Elizabeth and I were able to sing a special with her family at Grace Baptist Church. ‘We Shall See Jesus’ is yet another promise that will be fulfilled. He Who conquered death will soon return for us, His children and we shall see Him just as He is!
