Love the south. Up north is too cold. Even though birdies do migrate in the spring/summer. Not me. Give me the south, any day of the year. Last time I was your way, your vehicle wasn't at the church. Shame! Shame!:toofunny

Sorry, not a phone person. I like to talk face to face or on the computer.

I have no idea who you are.. so when you say "local church..." I have no idea that means me... :gaga
Sending missionaries is wonderful. We took part in that offering, gladly!

At present I have no idea who Bullwinkle and Birdie are...

Birdie.. are you a long lost relative of mine???

God is moving in an extraordinary way at Capital Community Church. I have a witness in my spirit with Bro. Morton Bustard when he prophesied last night that God is taking CCC to a new level of spirituality. I believe God is responding to the hunger and thirst demonstrated by the number of people turning out for Saturday night prayer services. I like what Bro. Bustard said about not being able to push a river, and, because a move of the Spirit is the river of God flowing among us, all we can do is flow with it.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 
Yes MM, it was a special thing to stand there and watch her little head go under that water and rise again!
I'm sure the feeling was the same you had when TB was baptised. It's like one of your children in the Lord.

Truly Blessed, You are so right.. God is responding to hunger and thirst at CCC. If we can keep ourselves focused and not veer off from the path of prayer, fasting and worship, we'll see more than we could have hoped for... I do believe!

The annual Canada Conference took place in Winnipeg last week. It was great to be able to go and reconnect with some old friends and of course make some new.

While the conference was, as was expected, smaller in attendance than last year, there was a tremendous spirit of unity and expectation that prevailed. Each message, from Bro. Dillon the first night, Bro. Andy Nieman (what a story) and Bro. Andrew Dickinson the first morning, Bro. Brian Abernathy the second night (even though he's from Indiana the Bro. can preach) and of course the finale by Bro. Granville MacKenzie dovetailed together.

There were great reports of what is happening in Newfoundland - Bro. Hughey (not sure of the spelling) an evangelist from Missouri has been there for the past 6 weeks under the auspices of GHMD and has been stirring things up with door knocking etc. In one church which had an average attendance of 6 - after being there a week they had 38 on Saturday night and 27 on Sunday night. In church after church similar things happening - in Newfoundland!

Oh yeah -- we also raised 40k for evangelism in Canada - to bring prospector/harvester type evangelists into small churches and some of our smaller districts. Looks like we will have two campaigns - one in Canadian Plains and another somewhere else to be decided - where an evangelist will come in for 2 months to help these smaller churches.

Central Canadian District did a great job hosting.

Canada Conference Part 2
Bro. Reg Harwood gave a report of his work in Elliot Lake, ON. 54 baptized in two years. They were also able to purchase a church building.

Anybody following the Stephen Boissoin story in Alberta? Scary stuff.
Youth pastor wrote a letter to the editor about homosexuality and the Alberta Human Rights Commission issued an order for him to apologize banned him from speaking disparagingly of gays.

Now THAT is something to be excited about... the Newfoundland report!!! Wonderful wonderful.
Do you know which church it was that went from 6-27?

Where is Andrew Dickinson now?
Did you happen to see J McGillan? Old friend of ours.

First I have heard of it. I'm more than a little nervous of the school days of my children that are fast approaching.

Reminds me of the Hemphill song from years back.

"Can you see the clock, from where you stand?
Can you tell the hour by the pointing of the hand?
Night is fast approaching, there are shadows in the land.
Can you see the clock, from where yous stand?"

I think our daylight hours in which to work are slipping away.

I'll be making the 3 minute drive myself... even though it will be quite a sacrifice.
