Medical Mission Summit,
Maranatha Baptist University,
Sept. 21-23, 2017,
Please register young people as soon as
possible. Pastors and young adults this is an opportunity to see the
future investment in the Gospel through medical missions. Even if you are
not considering medical as a life calling, you can engage in medical
missions. Come and hear about the opportunities.
Dear
Friends,
This
report just came in from Pastor Cover. We are very thankful for the work
that Pastor Cover has done. Please read his report.
“The
last couple of days have been full of work teams doing cleanup and supplies
being distributed. We have sent men to help Pastor David Cripps to tear
out and clean up at his home as well as the home of his next-door
neighbor. This neighbor does not know Christ as his Savior and previous
to this has not been receptive even to friendly conversation from Pastor
Cripps. However, he needed help to clean up his home after the flood and
so a group of men who came down from Harrisonville, MO with Pastor Randy
Foster, and two men that came from Louisiana with Pastor Rob Fleshman helped
him to get his home cleaned up over the past couple of days. What an open
door for ministry!
Yesterday,
as we passed out supplies from the back of a truck in the neighborhood we had
the opportunity to pass out many tracts and pray with many people. We
have met so many different people in our community through this effort.
One of the ladies in our church met some of her neighbors out volunteering with
another group. What a great opportunity for her to meet her neighbors and
invite them to our church. We were giving supplies yesterday to a senior
living center (55 and over community) and while we were there we were invited
to begin leading a Bible study there each week as well.
One
exciting thing for me as a pastor to see, is many of our new folks in the
church jumping in and serving with our church in our community. Last
night one of our men texted and asked where he could work today. He has
been in the church for just about a month now. God is building His church
and He is using these opportunities to serve others to solidify and build this
local body. I am thankful for all of the help and support from ORH to provide the
funds, supplies, and know-how to accomplish so much in so little time!
Please keep praying for us. I just got off the phone a few minutes ago with a
man named Ricky. We helped his family a few days ago. They are planning to join
us for church tomorrow. Thank you for giving financially. We have given funds
that ORH has provided to many families in need and helped some other churches
financially as well! In Christ, Pastor Will Cover, Arise Baptist Church.”

for Arise Baptist Church as they work for the Lord in the aftermath of
