I want to encourage you, if you can, to attend the Second Annual Prayer and Fasting Convocation for Tulsa County. This is a meeting for churches across Tulsa County for the purpose of prayer. We will be praying for a fresh movement of the Spirit of God in our churches and across our nation. We will also be praying for revival here and around the world.
As a part of the meeting we’ll be hearing a report from some brothers about what God is doing in Pakistan. The meeting is this Friday and Saturday, March 5 & 6 at Carbondale Assembly of God. Carbondale is located at 2335 W. 51st. Friday’s meeting begins at 7:00 pm and will conclude at 9:00 pm. Saturday is from 9:00 am to noon. I hope to see you there.
I also want to encourage you to begin praying about what you can give to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering for North American Missions. 50% of the North American Mission Board’s funding comes from this offering. Your gifts help with planting churches, providing Disaster Relief and reaching North American for Christ.
I hope to see you and your family as we gather for worship and celebration this coming Lord’s Day.
An exposition of Psalm 116:1-19. Pastor Rod Harris delivered brought this Bible study to the fellowship at Trinity Baptist Church on Wednesday evening, March 10, 2010.
Wow, what a weekend! Can you believe it – 70 degrees on Friday, sleet and snow Saturday and Sunday! I was in Springfield, Missouri last week for the National Homeschool Basketball Tournament and made the 5-hour drive from Springfield to Tulsa Saturday afternoon into the evening (it normally takes just under 3 hours). I’ve spent this morning trying to dig out from under all the stuff that accumulated on my desk while I was gone and anticipating the week ahead. This could prove a busy week. Our granddaughter is due this Saturday. I’m hoping she cooperates and comes at a decent hour but who knows with that Sasser/Choate blood in her she could be something of a problem. Oh, who am I kidding we all know she’s going to be perfect.
I do want to remind you of a couple of things. Don’t forget the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering. Your gifts to this offering enable us to take the gospel to North America. Through your faithful giving we have missionaries serving throughout the U.S. and Canada. Your gifts have helped make our Southern Baptist Disaster Relief Organization the third largest disaster relief work in the country. In many cases our disaster relief workers are feeding and providing the meals for the Read Cross in addition to our own work. Your gift to Annie Armstrong is a great investment in Kingdom work.
I also want to remind you of the Easter Egg-Stravaganza coming up on April 3. This is our gift to the community. We need lots of volunteers and there are still plastic eggs to be filled with candy. If you can help with this event see Tina Downing.
I look forward to seeing you and your family as we gather for worship and celebration this coming Lord’s Day.
At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18:1-4, ESV)
