Regional Ladies Retreat

The Regional Ladies Retreat hosted by the International Women's Ministries Department (Cleveland, Tennessee) begins today and goes through Sunday at the Lake Barkley Resort near Cadiz, Kentucky. This is an annual event that draws ladies from multiple states for a time of fellowship, worship and the preaching/teaching of the Word of God.

Each year, Catherine Payne and her staff, which includes lady ministers from across the United States provides an excellent time for the ladies to draw closer to the Lord and deepen their walk of faith. We always have a large group of ladies from Tennessee in attendance and we are grateful for their participation, which always makes this one of the best Regional retreats in the world.

Debra and I are privileged to be here for the retreat, although I will be leaving on Saturday for Cleveland. I will be ministering in a revival at the Keith Street church from Sunday morning through Wednesday night. If you are in the area, I would love to see you for either event.

Prayer Request

Yesterday and today have been filled with non-stop preparations and meetings for the General Assembly. The State/National Overseers will be traveling to begin meeting this week in Nashville.

This precious lady and her family need our prayer support, and I hope you will join me in prayer for them, believing the Lord is able to meet their need.
