MAD Live Event in Newton, NC

MAD Live Event in Newton, NC
Sunday, February 19, 2017 by Don

Today I did another MAD Live Event. I was in Newton, NC at the Christ Alive AG Church. 68 people attended the event. I am looking forward to seeing how God will use these willing servants! During the second service I had a long talk with the police officer who was working security and traffic at the church. I shared the Gospel with him and he let me layer hands on him and pray for him. I gave him some literature to read and he said he would.

July Ministry Report

Greetings in the Magnificent Name of Jesus!

We thank you for your prayers for our 15th (and final) Ultimate Adventure trip to Utah. We had an amazing group of people attend and we were so blessed by them as we concluded our last of these trips. The trips are increasingly becoming hard to do and too expensive. EVERYTHING was more expensive than we had budgeted for last summer when planning the trip. We didn’t want to cancel the trip and disappoint the 22 people who attended, so we continued with the planned trip. Our group hailed from the following states: MA, PA, WV, VA, TN, and NC. This year we added a couple of new activities. We hiked through an underground lava tube and visited 3 different hot springs in the desert. My son, John, and his family came along on the trip, and I asked him to do daily devotions for the group. I was very proud of how he shared with the group. While traveling, I had many opportunities to share my faith in Christ with the Divine appointments that God had prepared for me. One of the Divine appointments connected me with a Mormon man who agreed to take the Gospel of John and read it with an open mind.

We completed 2 M.A.D. Live Events in July, both in NJ. We praise God for one lady who told me that she had given her life to Christ! PTL!
I was blessed to share the Gospel with 37 people at our food pantry this month. Seeds planted. Now it’s up to the Holy Spirit. God set up a cool Divine appointment for me in Alcoa, TN. I went into Culver’s Restaurant for some lunch and JACKPOT! Six K9 officers were on a training lunch break and I was able to give each officer a police Gospel card and I prayed for their safety and salvation. We shared a few war stories as well. As usual, I had many Divine appointments this past month and I was able to share the Gospel, give each some Gospel literature, and pray with people.
Thank you to each and every one of our regular monthly supporters. Your partnership during these tough financial times is such a blessing to us and we pray for God’s continued blessings on you for your faithfulness and commitment to help us impact the Kingdom to the glory of God!
We have two events in August and then the “normal” busy fall schedule kicks in for the first time in several years. Praise the Lord!!! We are so grateful to those who have faithfully been praying for our schedule. As you can see, our God DOES answer the prayers of His people! Thank you, and glory to God!

PLEASE PRAY WITH US

• Please pray for Cathy - she has been struggling with a loss of taste and smell for several months now. She can’t stand to cook as the smell of her delicious meals turns her stomach. Most of the foods she has always enjoyed taste bad to her. She is very unhappy not being able to enjoy eating. Thanks!
• I was in contact with the folks at Focus on the Family. They are considering and evaluating whether they’d like to do an interview with me. Prayers for this would be appreciated!
• For continued good health and travel mercies.

Love in Christ,
Cathy and Don
