Very Special Prayer Request

I am posting a prayer request on behalf of our pastor's family at Paris, Bishop C.C. Winchester. This past month, Cliff and Joanne's daughter-in-law was involved in a terrible automobile crash that put her in critical condition at a hospital in Missouri.

Because of the server difficulties, I have not posted earlier emails that did not get to me, and I apologize to the Winchester family for the difficulty. I am posting a copy of an email that I received tonight....as it would be, our service has been down most of the evening, and just came back online. Please join me in prayer

This will be brief. Michelle stopped breathing 4 times today. She had been in a step down icu unit but is back in icu. Doctors do not give any hope in any way. Joann is with her as well as our son Greg, his family and Michelle's family live in Springfield. ( MO) We are fully aware of the greatness of our Lord. We trust the Lord and are depending on the will of God to be performed. Please pray for Michelle and her family, our son Greg. Also children Holden (6) and Ginny (14) who is scheduled to graduate in just a few days.

Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He...

A new convert?

I just learned, that we may have converted a "roll-tide" Alabama fan! You decide.

New Church Organized

It is always a tremendous thrill to announce the establishment of a new church. This post shares a little about our latest. On January 30, 2011 I met with the people of the Capilla De La Victoria (Victory Chapel) in Cleveland, Tennessee for the purpose of organizing and establishing what had been a mission work for well over two years. Previously, this group had met under the direction of Cliff Anderson in a part of the Peerless Road Complex. Pastor Tim Coalter (now State Presiding Bishop of South Carolina) shared with the congregation a vision of that local church planting two churches in the United States. We then joined in a partnership with the Tennessee State Office to share in the cost of rent and other needs for a period of two years. Since the inception of the idea, there were several changes. Pastor Cliff Anderson felt the need of a change and Pastor Tim Coalter was appointed to serve in another ministry. At this time Omar Velazquez agreed to assume the leadership of th...
