Our 14th annual Faith Promise Missions conference is over, and what a great series of services we had. Our speaker. pastor Allen Hagood, was top notch with to-the-point messages about missions and about trusting God to supply our Faith Promises. On Thursday and Friday nights, Tommy and Sherri Drewett blessed our hearts with music and then their ministry was further enhanced when they were joined by their son Shawn on Saturday for a Drewett Family reunion. Jim Slocumb lead our singing with his usual gusto. Then to top it off, on Sunday morning our Faith Promise Commitments totaled $85,880. For those who doubt the effectiveness of Faith Promise giving, last year at the end of our conference we received $65,000 in commitments and during the year God provided us with almost $75,000 in offerings.

The only downer during the conference was the problem with the Drewett’s vehicle. Apparently, the in-tank fuel pump went out. The church voted to have it repaired for them. However, we don’t know how long it will take to have the vehicle repaired and get Tommy, Sherri and Shawn back to Louisiana. I will tackle that tomorrow (Monday). For now, I am enjoying the blessings of today.
