A good week...
There have been many extra things to do the last several weeks. But, God allowed us to get back into evangelism this week for which I am thankful. We put out our new leaflet on Tuesday and Wednesday. Yesterday Katie and I enjoyed knocking on the doors of the church neighbours. God has put us in a delightful neighbourhood and it was a joy to meet many of the neighbours. Some have lived there for 50-60 years.
Some of the extra duties this week were applications to change the name and use of our property. We continue to have a utiltity prayer requests and would appreciate you asking for God's provision and guidance. This next Saturday we also have a church work day and would appreciate prayers for a productive day.
God gave us a good Mother's Day Sunday this morning. For this special day, I preached a message entitled, "The Farmer's Wife" a message about Ruth. Ruth was not a mother in the story, but she becomes the great grand mother of King David. Her character, like that of David's wife, Abigail, is a wonderful study of Godly womanhood. Our attendance was good. Praise the Lord.
Thank you for upholding our ministry in prayer. Many of our people need God's encouragement and strengthening. It seems to have been a very dark winter in Scotland this year with many needing inner strengthening. Thanks for your prayers for what God is doing at Southside Free Baptist Church.
Below are some pics from our family fun day this past week at Stirling Castle.
