Pastor James’ Blog

It’s been a few days since I have blogged but wanted to share some exciting things that are happening at Life House with you.

FIRST: God continues to bless with new faces and great services. We’ve seen several saved in the past few weeks and it’s exciting to see God’s hand moving. Pray that we can see even more souls come to know Him and find freedom in Jesus!!

SECOND: The Lord is opening new doors for us in our community to better serve the people that live here.  We will be having a COLLEGE HILL COMMUNITY CLEAN UP on Saturday, August 22, 2009 starting with breakfast at 7 – 7:45 a.m. and the heading out to pick up trash at 8 a.m. until lunch (at 12 Noon).  We hope to physically clean up the area and even better get the chance to talk with residents, talk to them about why we are doing it (we love them and so does Jesus!), talk to them about their souls and even give them an invitation to Life House. This one day event could impact this community for a long time.  YES, I’m not totally stupid – I know there will be more trash thrown down where we pick trash up but it’s the act of serving the community and loving them that we want them to see.   PRAY for this event!

THIRD:  Today we were approved to begin feeding the hungry in our community and town. The food will come to us at no cost and we will use volunteers to cook, serve, clean and bless the hungry and needy in our area.  If you are retired or have free time during the day and would like to get involved in this type ministry – hit me up for more information.   It’s gonna be a blessing when we are able to get it started.  I’ve already made the first order for food this afternoon – now to get prepared otherwise! PRAY that we can meet the needs of the physically hungry and also share the love of Jesus with them too.

FOURTH: It’s a blessing to be able to serve the Lord as one of your missionaries.  We may not be on a foreign mission field but it’s a mission field nontheless. THANK YOU to all of our sister churches who so willingly give, work and help us get this misson off the ground. THANKS for prayer, love, support, words of encouragement and more.  God has HIS hands all over this work.   PRAY.

Well, better get off here because in a few short minutes we will begin to see children/youth start to arrive for Safe Haven. It’s always a blessing to see the kids/youth, feel their love and love them back.  God is doing a work in some homes.   Later…..Pastor James
