Big Step Of Faith

Peggy's Sunday School Class:

It was a big step of faith and it requires a lot of work to prepare but Peggy is now teaching her own children's Sunday School class. She has about fifteen possible students under age nine although they have never all been in attendance at any one given time. All of them are children of adults who attend our services and it is a necessity to separate the children during the service to allow the adults to listen. It comes as no surprise that there is basically no parental control over a child's behavior in this society. This step in ministry was big for Peggy we have even received comments from some of the parents that the teachers at their schools have commented on the change in the child's behavior. God's Word does make a difference!

Sunday nights Abigail takes these children and reviews what Peggy taught them in the morning. Both Abigail and Peggy are always excited to see which one of "their" children will be at any given service.

A Basket Case:
A few Sundays ago our services were interrupted by a lady looking for help. She remained for the duration of the service and after service I began to deal with her and her needs. I have met basket cases before but this poor soul beats all! Her life is a MESS. Probably not more than thirty years of age with three small children. This past Sunday night will live in infamy as one of those stories that missionaries tell. I doubt that you would ever meet such a soul in the states unless you visited certain specialized care facilities. It is all an issue of sin and the answer is the Word of God. We need to see a miracle in her life and look forward to a future date when I can share the change that God has wrought in her life.

"A Good Thing"

"Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour with the LORD." Proverbs 18:22
Today we have had the opportunity to celebrate a Happy Birthday to Peggy. I thank God for my wife and I thank her for joyfully sharing life and ministry with me. Twenty-five years of marriage, six children, one grand child, twenty-three years of ministry and she has simply grown more beautiful through it all.
so - "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to Peggy from your grateful husband and children.

"P.S"
"Puppy Supplement" Well Caramela is back. Our neighbor ask us how the puppy was and I told him the story. He in turn confronted the man who sold her to us. Evidently it was his dog and the lady who came by to claim her was lying! He in turn confronted the lady and returned our dog to us. I would still take that Rhodesian Ridge back though.

My Testimony- By Peggy

I was not born into a Christian family. I did have a family that loved me and took good care of me. Never the less they were unsaved. As a child I attended a few Vacation Bible Schools and a few Easter Services. At age 12, I moved to the country where our home church is. Our neighbors attended our home church. Through their influence I started attending our home church. I loved and enjoyed going to church. I made it my second home. At age 16, I realized I was a sinner bound for hell. I repented of my sins and accepted the Lord. That was on a Saturday, on Sunday I was baptized. Our home church, Cozaddale Baptist Temple, has been the only church I had ever known. I praise the Lord for my growing up years at Cozaddale. I have many precious memories. About 5 months after I got saved I met my husband. He was going to be a missionary. I was willing to do whatever the Lord would have me do. I Praise the Lord for my husband and our life we've had together. I wouldn't change a thing, it has been a good life.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Hebrews 13:5b .....I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
My favorite hymn is, "Constantly Abiding" Through different situations in my life, I know the Lord is Constantly Abiding with me.
