PASTOR WAYNE BURKE UPDATE:
God has seen fit to bring Pastor Wayne Burke back from the very brink of death. A week ago the doctors did not hold much hope for his survival after his emergency quadruple by-pass surgery. Things looked very bleak and the family had been called in and we had begun preparations for a trip to Kansas and Ohio.Now, just a week later, plans are completely different! Pastor Wayne Burke has been out of ICU since Tuesday and it looks as though he will be heading home by this weekend. He is excited with the prospect of being given more time on this earth to serve the Lord. For the complete story you can go to http://cozaddalechronicles.blogspot.com/ and get the inside scoop from his son, Pastor Travis Burke, and from his daughter, Chrystal Snell.
PASTOR RAY CHAMBERLIN:
I would also like to add another family and church to your prayer list. Pastor Ray Chamberlin and the Faith Baptist Church of Cynthiana, Kentucky would appreciate your prayers. Pastor Ray Chamberlin pastored the Faith Baptist Church faithfully till his retirement when his son became pastor. Pastor Ray Chamberlin has been in a fight with cancer and is about to win the victory through death. Please pray for this dear family and church.

Look Who Came To Church
LOOK WHO CAME TO CHURCH:
We have moved our services from our house to our rental building since the young people of our summer camp helped us pass out those 900 plus tracts. The building is really not ready and we plan to have an official first service still in the future but we want to be there in the meantime. I will also be filling in for an elderly missionary for the next six weeks and wanted to wait till after that obligation before an official start.In the meantime God has seen fit to bring some along. Oscar and Andrea lived next door till about a month ago. Oscar had stopped by yesterday to chat with Ezra and Ezra gave him another invitation to church and he committed to come. It was exciting to have Oscar and Andrea and their daughter Andrea in our services. The message was simple: The Privilege of Prayer. I. The Possibilities of Prayer (Endless) II. The Power of Prayer (Omnipotence of God) III. The Prevention of Prayer (Sin) - that God will not hear the prayer of sinners except for repentance and that salvation gives us a hearing with God!
