Great First Night at Bryant Pond Baptist Church

What a blessing! We had a good first night at Bryant Pond Baptist! We had a sweet spirit throughout the service and everyone left knowing that they experienced a real blessing! Amen!

It's not goodbye......

What a great day at Church Hill Baptist today. What emotions are going through me right now. I know that the way I must look at my last day at Church Hill Baptist is "it's not goodbye, it's see you later". That is a correct sentiment. I look forward to serving beside Pastor Wiley and the CHB family as two like-minded churches should. I know that we will have future opportunities to sit in that auditorium and sing the songs of Zion and hear preaching. It's not goodbye, it's "see you later".
It has been a literal flood of tears today, but we know the Lord will knit our heart together with the great folks at Bryant Pond Baptist Church. We look forward to serving the Lord there with zeal and fervor.
To all of our Church Hill Baptist family: we love you all so much! Thank you for all you have done for us and all you have taught us. We will be praying for you as we know that you also will be praying for us.
To my new Bryant Pond Baptist Church family: we are looking forward to joining you and growing together with you! God will guide us to where He wants us to go as a church body.

The picture above was taken this late afternoon before choir practice. Our lives have changed in that building. I know that it is just wood, bricks, metal,shingles, etc....but it will always hold such a special place in my heart. More than the building, the great people that God allowed us to serve with for the past 3.5 years will occupy a special place in my heart. We have laughed togther, cried together (especially today :' ) and served together. We love you and will miss you! It's not goodbye, it's "see you later".

10-28-11

What a powerful service we had at Church Hill Baptist on Wednesday night.  It is amazing how the Lord will bring the message that you need the most at the time you need it the most.  This was the case Wednesday night as Pastor Wiley preached “God Will Provide”.  I am looking forward to hearing Pastor preach twice on Sunday.  I don’t care if it snows 3-5 feet, the Jones’ will be at church!!!  What a joy it is to serve in Maine.  I love this state, snow and all! 

This is the weekend that I find out.  I am excited, nervous, sad all at once.  It is a joy to know the God of Heaven wants to use me!!!! 

Pastor Wiley and Pastor Bell are flying to Oklahoma this week to preach at Heartland Baptist Bible College.  The focus of the week is the state of Maine.  Please pray for laborers for our state.  There are so many towns that still don’t have a Gospel witness, but God is moving!

Another Lord's Day at Bryant Pond Baptist Church

It's a beautiful day here in Bryant Pond, Maine! We came a few hours earlier today. I guess we just want to become a little more accustomed to this area. I am looking forward to the Lord's day tomorrow. It's going to be a great day at BPBC!

What a stirring service tonight! God is so good! I am totally undeserving of what God is doing but I praise His name!
