We rejoice in the great victories from last week. Several were baptized and received the Holy Spirit, and many were renewed in their faith. Additionally, we had a tremendous month of prayer meetings at our mid-summer vespers. God truly is good to us! Tonight we will partake of the Lord’s Supper. Please come in faith and repentance to receive the grace of God afresh.

We had a wonderful time of prayer Wednesday night. We will continue our mid-summer vespers for the next two Wednesdays, and I would like to encourage everyone to attend. This coming Wednesday, we will focus on renewal and ingathering, praying for personal spiritual renewal, the renewal of backsliders, and an ingathering of new people.

Next Sunday Evangelist Luke Levine will be with us. I am asking everyone to take a day of prayer and fasting for our revival. We will pray for this specifically on Wednesday night. If you know someone who needs a miracle or who needs to receive the Holy Spirit, please invite them to the services.
