Jesus Christ is Lord!

Hey! I just got home from the counselor training for "the Gathering".

Between 150-200 "on fire" Christians showed up at Royal BC!! Some of those in attendance have only been saved in the last weeks and months! Wow! We were all reminded to work hard and PRAY, PRAY, PRAY each day for all the leaders of the event, especially Joe Payton (overall leadership, music) and Brian Hosmer (preaching).

Also pray for and encourage all our WBA churches, that they will really get on board and invite the youth of Newnan to come! If you still need a poster, we have some at the WBA building.

It is absolutely exciting to see how our wonderful Lord is bringing this all together. If you feel led to make a donation to "the Gathering", please do so now!

If you were NOT at the counselor training, but really want to be a counselor or serve as security, please contact Joe Payton (Tel. 770-252-3380 - home). ALSO...if you can help set up on Aug. 29, beginning at 6:00 AM, please let Joe know. Amen!
