A Great Easter!!!

What a great day we had in Easter services yesterday. We were praying for God to bless our services and He did with 84 people in attendance. That is over twice what the church was averaging back in June of last year when I arrived. The spirit was great in the church even though it was a rainy, stormy day. It began raining in Cleveland around 2am (I was told this. I wasn't up at 2. Haha) and it rained all day with only a few breaks. Even during our morning service you could hear the rolling and rumbling of the thunder, but it didn't change the spirit. You could see the excitement of those who were there. We had a wonderful time in God's House. We had our Easter egg hunt following church in the building. We had a skit during our morning service explaining the importance of knowing the truth of God's Word.

We continue to see God bless our church as we move forward. Our philosophy is not just that God can bless the church, but God will bless the church and we will see it grow and be a light for Jesus Christ in Cleveland, OK. I look forward to another great month serving as pastor of this church!
