Winter 2012
Hello! We pray everyone had a glorious and wonderful Christmas and New Year's Day. We had a blessed but quiet Christmas and prayed in the New Year at Piney Grove Community Church in Etowah, TN. Our prayer is for everyone to have a healthy, happy and prosperous year in 2012. Our Christmas ministry with the Head Start Kids in TN was great - 100 kids were given gifts - with the Bible being the most important one. Their families also received a food box to help with their nutritional needs for the holiday season. Isn't God great! He provides even more than we need sometimes if we only stay close and have faith in His promises.
Our ministry is changing and becoming more accountable to God more and more every day. Our goal of reaching as many people as possible for the growth of God's Kingdom is a difficult one as Satan is fighting us all along the way. On three occasions he has even tried to kill us. However, through Jesus' protection and love we survived. Folks - we are on the winning side if we can just hang on to Jesus and endure to the end. Our true blessings and rewards are in Heaven so we need to store our treasures there where it will count.
We released our latest CD entitled "Ride Out Your Storm" this past September and currently have a song from it at #9 on the charts. The song is one written by Hank Williams before his death and finally finished by Glen D. Tubb. It is entitled "Heartbroken,Forsaken and Alone." We thank God for His many blessings. This year we are planning a Hank Williams, Sr. tribute CD of the lesser known gospel songs he wrote and/or performed. We ask that you pray with us that this CD will reach people who may or may not go to church. Our job is to work in the highways and hedges to reach the unsaved - but also to bring His message to people in Church as well. We'll be busy in Florida in January and part of February reaching out to people with the good news of Jesus Christ and his free gift of salvation and eternal life. We can now take credit/debit cards for our CDs - isn't that great!
We have several needs at this time and humbly ask for your help in meetiong these. We have outgrown our RV and need a camper/trailer and truck/can to pull it with. Greg and I both use CPAP macines for sleep Apnea and need to be able to put them on each side of the bed. Our RV will not allow us to do so. Also, our laptop computer "bit the dust" recently and needs to be replaced. We use it to keep records of our booking schedule, financial information and e-mails for prayer needs. We trust that God will meet these needs as He promises in the Bible. We realize 2011 was not a very good year financially for alot of people and don't expect you to get all these things for us - just pray and donate whatever you can afford to give. Would you join together with us on our team to spread the word to those who need to hear it?
We appreciate your prayers, support and efforts to help us meet our goals. od bless - Greg and Teresa
