Update

A lot has been going on at our little church during the month of November. On the first Sunday of the month we celebrated Founder's Day, and our attendance was 116. Then, the very next night, we had our annual Charge Conference, which was also well-attended, followed by four nights of revival meetings. On Tuesday night, Pastor Bud's sister, Angela Brady, gave a Christian concert, with 50 in attendance. On Wednesday night, a pastor friend of Bud's, Rev. Joel Perry from the Rockingham District preached on the topic "Where Will You Go When You Die?" - Rev. Perry played a number on the piano for us, and we had attendance of 47. On Thursday night, Rev. Mike Grady preached on the topic of the "Second Coming of Christ," and we also had special music that night by the Harmony Boys. Our attendance was 89, and on the last night of Revival, we had Rise Again perform - with attendance of 50. Almost every evening saw someone come down to the altar to pray, particularly on Thursday night.

On Friday, several of our youth, and some of our adults, drove down to Fayetteville to attend Pilgrimage 2007, where over 5,000 young people and chaperones assembled in Crown Coliseum to hear excellant preaching and testimonies - the event last until Sunday morning; Pastor Jenness drove down to be with our group on Friday night, and drove back for our morning service that Sunday morning. On Saturday night, he led three of our young people to Christ, and we thank the Lord for this wonderful news!

Soon we will begin preparing for Advent, and there will be even more activity in the month of December!
