Tennessee Ladies Day

This past couple of days were a great time of SANCTUARY at Camp Hickory Hills, where the Tennessee Ladies Day grabbed our attention. As always, Londa Richardson and her team were the example of excellence in ministry. Thank you!

On Friday night, Karen Wheaton ministered to the ladies in song and in word, and we were so blessed to meet her, and hear her testimony of growing up in the Church of God of Prophecy, and her time as the "Gleaner" leader of her local church. She is doing a great work among young people at her ministry known as "the ramp."

On Saturday morning, Becca Stevens, Episcopal priest and author shared about the love of God in action! I believe we were all amazed to hear the wonderful story of the work she does with women in crisis.

On Saturday afternoon, Sharon Farruggia of Harvest Fellowship Church in Knoxville brought a powerful word to the congregation! It was a well-timed word.

The worship, led by June Gordon of Abundant Grace in Memphis and her team (from different churches in Tennessee) brought the house down with their anointed, spirited worship.

All in all 2009 Ladies Day will go down in the records as one of the best ever. Attendance was super and we actually ran out of room at our spacious campground facilities. Thanks to all who made it a great success.

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...

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. Will you please join me in prayer for travel mercies for all of those on their way to Nashville? Also, Sister Wilma Massengale is still in Vanderbilt Hospital 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.
