Bible Baptist Church
New Port Richey, Florida
Pastor Matthew Stidham
At the end of this column last month, we were finishing our revival meeting with Pastor Matt Stidham and the folks at Bible Baptist Church in New Port Richey. We closed that meeting out with Brother Stidham on Wednesday night and it was an excellent revival with six saved, one baptized and the altars full in every invitation. Visitors were a little bit sparse because of the unseasonably cold weather for Florida (like record low temps!) especially on Sunday when they had invited lots of folks for the big day. In spite of that the Lord gave us a good number of visitors and a spark of revival among His people. As always, we had good fellowship with Brother Stidham and his people.
Crossroads Baptist Church
Dothan, Alabama
Pastor Doug MacCormack
That Thursday we traveled to Panama City and spent two nights there. It was not as relaxing as we had hoped because of the shortness, and all that was on our to do list, but the room was nice and we got to catch up on things for office and get work done. Again it was pretty chilly for Florida.
On Saturday we drove a couple hours to be with Pastor Doug MacCormack and Crossroads Baptist Church in Dothan Alabama. We had a wonderful meeting with Brother MacCormack and his people from Sunday to Wednesday. The altars were full in each invitation. In the school chapel on Wednesday there were five saved and 18 young people who surrendered to full time Christian service. It was a powerful chapel time and a blessing to see the Lord working in the hearts of young folks. It was a special blessing to get to spend some time with the MacCormacks, dear friends of many years.
Following that meeting, on Thursday we were suppose to go to Destin for a couple days and on to Baton Rouge, Louisiana to be with Pastor Alan Bartlett and Central Baptist Church, but that meeting canceled short notice, so we canceled our two days in Destin and made our way home to Pennsylvania. We had good weather to travel in during that window of time. We drove 13 1/2 hours and got in about 1:00 am on Friday morning. We needed to get home anyway since our staff was moving on to another position, and I’m sure the Lord worked it out so we could be there before they left.
We are presently in transition and feeling our way through what needs to be done and what God has planned for this ministry going forward.
Faith Baptist Church of Osterburg
For the next three weeks I preached every Sunday and Thursday at Faith Baptist Church in Osterburg. which is our home church. It was good to be back in the pulpit here, but those are always tough times financially, as I do not take a salary. We have enjoyed some wonderful services and spent our Thursday Bible study time on “The Inspiration and Preservation of the King James Bible,” which I have greatly enjoyed teaching to our folks.
First Bible Baptist Church
Manassas Park, Virginia
Pastor Kevin Baldassari
On the third week we were gone on Monday and Tuesday in Virginia to be with our good friend, Pastor Kevin Baldassari for a Revival Fires regional conference. We had a great time of fellowship with Brother Baldassari and his people, and the Lord blessed the services in a wonderful way. Once again, the weather did not cooperate, as it was monsoon during most of the meeting, but we had a wonderful time anyway. My wife spoke at a luncheon for their ladies and they had a sweet time of fellowship.
On Tuesday night we traveled home and I preached at Faith Baptist Church on Thursday evening and again on Sunday. God gave us a good day with an encouraging crowd and response at the altar. We are presently tying up loose ends and getting things ready for the next group of meetings in the Carolinas and Georgia and also getting prepared for the National Revival Fires Conference at Faith Baptist Church in Bourbonnais, Illinois on the dates of April 20-22. Once again this year it will be hosted by Dr. Terry Anglea and the wonderful folks there at Faith Baptist Church. Please make plans to attend and enjoy that conference with us.
I will preach this Thursday here at Faith Baptist and then on Saturday we will load the vehicle and drive to North Caarolina and begin our meetings there in Wilmington, New Bern, Sneads Ferry, and then close the week out in Flowery Branch, Georgia. Please keep us in your prayers, and we hope to cross paths somewhere along the Gospel trail.
