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!

Hard to believe!
What a great end to the missions conference! We had great preaching all week and my heart was stirred. Church Hill Baptist is officially supporting the Browns as missionaries to Montana.
Great preaching, great fellowship! What a week.
Tomorrow is the Lord's day and I am excited to see what the Lord does! Brother Dick and myself had some very fruitful visits this morning. We both believe that there will be some visitors in church tomorrow! May the Lord reach these precious souls!
Well....tomorrow is my ordination day. I can't believe that God would even save me, let alone call me to preach His precious gospel! Pastor has always said that if you feel you are ready to be a pastor, you are not ready. Well.....I still don't feel I am ready, but the Lord says "go". I do not know how God can use people like me (with a past, etc....) but I am so glad He does! God is so good! My prayer is that God will use my family and I to make a difference (Jude 22) for Him.
Please continue to pray for our family as we will be back at the Bryant Pond Baptist Church to candidate on Sunday the 16th. We will also be filling in there on Sunday the 23rd. Please pray for God's will to be done in our lives. That is our desire, to do His will not our will.

Soul Food!
Wow! I have been fed this week! Yes, the eating has been good at Church Hill Baptist, but the spiritual food has been tremendous. Tonight Dr. Caudill preached a message "What Has God Called You To Do?" that was such a tremendous help and blessing to me. I am currently uploading it to our sermon.net site. You can listen at the bottom of this blog.
What a glory it is that God uses such unlikely people for His glory! People like Moses. People like Gideon. People like you and me! Glory! Hallelujah! Amen!
I personally needed to be reminded of that affirmation that it is not based on our talent, it is God working through us. The devil loves to whisper in our ears "you are a fake", "why would anybody ever follow you?", "you are going to fail", etc.... Well..... as I said, I am so glad that my success is not based on my talent, It's all Him! I can't pastor a church. I can't lead a congregation. I can't plan and organize and see churches planted out of my church, but I can be faithful and obedient to God and let Him do His work through me. If we are faithful and obedient, God will give us success! What a blessing! God is so good!
