Hi prayer partners,
I was glad to see this past weekend come around to give us a chance to reflect on how privileged we are to live in America. In spite of all the problems, we are still very blessed.
I am not a detailed person and yet I have had to do a lot of those kind of things and it has been a tough process and I have made a lot of mistakes. It is beginning to smooth out and I am learning to go slow and check the details.
This week we will be sending out a mass mailing to get people on board to start looking ahead for a theme and a book for the coming year for the ministry. Pray for the mailing to touch men’s hearts and for us to choose the path for the coming year that would be pleasing to the Lord and benefit the men.
Bernie Kneale will be taking about ten prayer warriors to pray over Mark Jordan, Brad Watkins and Grant Armstrong at their new appointments on Thursday. Pray for them and for these new appointments.
I will be speaking again at my childhood country church again this Sunday and I would appreciate your prayers for that. I really enjoyed getting to speak there two weeks ago. I have gone to many countries, but my home is the place where I most want to share the Lord.
Thanks for your prayers,
Love ya’s,
Fred
PS: This will come out in our mass mailing, but it really struck me today. My nephew’s wife, Jill Hampleman sent me this:
We just finished a series of sermons at our church entitled "The Warrior" the sermon spoke directly to men on how to reach younger men. There were 3 main points that dealt with your earthly father and your heavenly father: 1. Forgive your father Collosians 3:13. Stop replaying your parents or your father's shortcomings. 2. Accept your father for who he is. Romans 15:7.accept his weaknesses. 3. Replace your earthly father with heavenly father.
The Lord wants to be the one to believe in you. Find a young boy or man to encourage. Let him know: 1. I believe in you. 2. I am proud of you. 3. No matter what, I'll always love you. Matthew 3:17.
