The mission trip to Pearlington, MS was a wonderful success. The church is a recent plant after some hurricane relief work took place in the small town. The congregation has about 20 members who are attending services on a weekly routine. It was also nice to work with the Hartsville Pike congregation ,and an old friend Jeffery Hall. He was a young man that was baptized from the community while I was there. It was nice to be in the southern part of the country, but it is always better to be home.
Once again great things are happening at the Waynesboro congregation. Reagan Skelton was baptized by Mitchell Skelton, her father, on Wednesday night. It was a great time of rejoicing. I called Mitchell up the next day to rejoice with him. I told him that “I hope to have the honor of baptizing one of my children for the forgiveness of their sins.” This was certainly a special time for the congregation, the family, and most importantly, Reagan. She is a wonderful young lady.
We were blessed once again with another baptism on Sunday night. Ginda Inman responded to the invitation and had her sins washed away in baptism. Ginda has been attending the congregation for some time and it was a blessing to see her make that good confession that Jesus is the Christ. We rejoice with her and her family over this super decision. Ginda has a bright and glorious future in the Lord’s Church. We are blessed to have her.
It seems that the Lord is truly providing the increase at the congregation. We had 197 people at services on Sunday morning. The best part was that we had 151 people at Bible Class too. It is wonderful to see the positive atmosphere and growth that is taking place in the congregation. We are growing stronger each week in the Lord. Praise God for the growth and the faith of these two new Christian sisters in the Lord.
