    Celebrate Christ

    ,,,with a new church!

    Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

    1 Peter 5:6

    We spent the weeks leading to Thanksgiving with the folks at Freedom Baptist Church (FBC), Rose Bud, AR where they eagerly awaited their first Christmas services in the new church.

    Our arrival coincided with the final additions to the sheet rock in this massive building, so while we waited for this to be finished, our friends Dan and Jenny joined us in gravel and drainage work outside and paint prep inside.

    See the landscaping plan!

    Scott then set to work. He painted the sanctuary, put shiplap on a couple walls, painted trim for all the areas needing it, patched general sheet rock accidents, and started applying a second coat of paint to the sanctuary window trim.

    Check out these videos of the project!

    Meanwhile, Karl Steudl of 2 Pilgrims Ministries drove from WV to help a group from New Testament Church Planters troubleshoot electrical issues and install indoor/outdoor lighting.

    It was a blessing to work with so many to help the folks at FBC meet their goal of celebrating Christmas in their new church home. Please continue in prayer for the completion of the tasks still undone.

    As always, we pray that all who enter the doors at FBC for generations to come would know and become disciples of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    First Baptist Academy Pachacamac, Peru: School is out for the year, and what a success it has been! A new family began attending the church, enrolling their first grader in school. Jhire, a recent high school graduate, agreed to help with ESL instruction and the scores have only risen. He also assists with translating, teaching, and setting up/tearing down at community outreach events, church, or at tent meetings in the jungle.

    Please be in continued prayer for FBAP, its outreach programs, and next steps for the ESL program.

    Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. Philippians 4:4
