Peyton is advancing in his life…for now, he has learned to crawl. The rules in the house have now changed and some things become dangerous. His investigative tendencies are kicking in, so Kate will have to get ready to stay ahead of him. He is so proud of himself when he performs this great feat. Of course, we are also very proud of him. The pictures posted today tell the story!

I wish I could have crawled this weekend…I went down Friday-Saturday-and early Sunday morning to a virus. Oh my, I felt horrible. I was down and out all Friday night and the entire day Saturday. Somehow, through the grace of God, He enabled me to get up early Sunday morning and make it to preach our services. I got stronger as I went, but I did not think I would make it. God is good to sustain us when we are weak. Thank you Lord.

If you were not able to be with us yesterday, I do hope that you will go and secure a copy of the message on, “The Battle of Your Life”. I am convinced it is a word that is so needed to be heard by all of us. God ministered to us as His church and we thank Him for it.

This coming Sunday morning is a great day to bring guests with you as we have our 2006 Summer Freedom Celebration. Our theme is on SPIRITUAL AWAKENING. Please join us at one of our campuses for one of our services. I am believing God for a great morning. I think God will use it mightily in our midst so please bring someone with you.

Let’s pray for a great Sunday and for God to minister to us.
