Prayers for our folks..

I just arrived at the office after attending the funeral of Ronnie Wayne Inman at the Trenton, Tennessee church in Western Tennessee. His son, our pastor at the Lennox church, Pastor Craig Inman did a wonderful job of organizing and presiding over the funeral services, and our pastor at the Camden, Tennessee church, Pastor Troy Redmond delivered the message.

I was so please to see so many of our pastors in attendance at the funeral services and the visitation services last night. The Trenton church was filled with compassionate people showing their love and respect for Brother Inman.

Before heading west for this funeral, I was in Cleveland for the funeral services for Sister Inez Biggers. it was a great turnout and the service was conducted by our Pastor at Keith Street, John A Stone and Retired Minister, Bishop Gene Davis.

From Cleveland, it was on to Clarksville, Tennessee for the funeral for Retired Minister Andy Sykes. Again, to see our pastors supporting each other is a real blessing. I was privileged to meet Pastor Ronnie Case, the Chaplain for the nursing facility where Brother Sykes has been, and pastor of a large Baptist church in South Pittsburg, Tennessee.

In between these two events, I conducted meetings with pastors and received a minister from another organization into membership in the Church of God of Prophecy. I am so blessed to spend my life working for the Lord and His people.

We have people hurting all around us in need of a touch from the Lord and needing the comfort of the Holy Spirit. I am asking you to join me in prayer for a special touch from on high. God bless.

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. 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...
