The weather was nice and we had a good attendance. Furthermore, everyone seemed in good spirits and happy to be together to worship God. We also had a great 5 th Sunday contribution and a wonderful turnout for the potluck. In fact, there were over 100 that stayed for the potluck and what a great time of fellowship it was. We are so blessed to be a part of a loving and active family of God. Thanks to everyone for their love for God and their willingness to do His Will! We also had our sister Wanda McElfish come forward Sunday Morn- ing. She was asking for prayers of forgiveness for any sins in her life. She also requested special prayer for some family situations she is dealing with. Let’s pray for sister Wanda and let’s encourage her in every way we can so she might find strength during this difficult time. Well, believe it or not we are now in the Month of April. It’s hard to imagine that three months of this year have flown by, but so far we have been well blessed in it as the people of God. As the weather is now improving and the spring time of the year is here, let’s all make an extra effort to do the work of God. So many of our family, friends, neighbors and co-workers need to know God and obey His Word. Brothers and sisters, you may be the only connection they have to the Lord’s church! So, please take advantage of every opportunity to live for Christ and to shine before this lost world, as a faithful Child of God. With God’s help, all things truly are possible! Well, two years have gone by since I last traveled to Ghana to encour- age the brethren in Kumasi, where we have a Preachers’ Training School. I am now making plans to go near the end of May and I am blessed to have brother Brent going with me again. Also, Nikki and Hannah will be going with us to encourage the many young people and Christians their age in Ghana. We might also have a least one more brother go who is considering the trip. Please keep our preparation, plans and this trip in your prayers. We have a lot to do to get ready for the trip, but with God’s help we will succeed. I look forward to the great work which is ahead in Ghana to encourage brethren, preach the Gospel to the lost and to study with those who need to understand God’s saving Word! Let me also remind you men that the men’s breakfast is April 12. I hope many of you are able to be a part of this time of fellowship and encouragement. I look forward to our assembly this coming Lord’s day. Make sure to properly prepare to give God your very best and be ready to worship your God. I’ll see you there! God bless! Ray Sullins

At this time, we have three students whoare committed to coming to the BIM in August.There is a possibility of two more that we knowof. It takes a lot of time for a school of preach-ing to get established. By our diligence, the Lordcontinues to bless this good work.

At 3:00 a.m., Sunday morning the 23rd ofMarch, the land in Uganda where a new facilitywill be built for the East Africa School of BiblicalStudies, was purchased. Now we will begin tobuild the facility building by building.
