The Weekend

This weekend was positively amazing! Saturday was a very busy day! I woke up very early in the morning to begin baking for our Missions bake sale we were having on Sunday. YUMMY! Smells of banana bread, poppyseed bread, zucchini bread and cherry pies filled the air! How delicious to think about, just the thought makes my mouth water! But alas, I didn't try a one of them! No! I resisted the temptation and the devil DID flee from me! About 30 loaves of bread, 2 cherry pies and several bags of Puppy Chow later, I finished.

My work was not done tho! I was rushing out the door to get my head on straight for outreach! And wow! What an outreach we had! There were 11 of us, walking the streets of downtown Kansas City passing out fliers, talking to people and praying around the area. God is good! We managed to get several contacts and I believe that our "100" is not too far away in Jesus name! That particular area is a primarily Hispanic one, as we are gearing up for the Holy Ghost service in September which will be in conjunction with our Annual Missions Conference. God is going to do the miraculous!

After having a great time of it, there were some of us that went over to the Slavak Festival in the Sugar Creek area of town. Incredible time there as well. We are diligently trying to reach out to the Eastern Europeans of our city. Once again, I must say, that I do believe the Lord is going to help us to reach them!

He said if we go, He would go with us, lead us, direct us, guide us! And I have found it to be true!

Sunday morning, I had the privilege of taking care of the Samoan Church in the absence of Sis. Amy! Wow! She has done an amazing job, building the church from the ground up! God is good! There were many visitors there and we give praise to the God for the move of God that was in that service!

Sunday night was a bitter sweet time. The transition was finally made and the Medinas are now the Hispanic Pastor. I will continue as the Multi-Cultural Pastor but not doubling as the Hispanic Pastor. The church since it's inception has been an incredible learning experience, and has had it's ups and downs and times of revival, and times of not so much revival. But I believe that God is going to do a quick work in the Hispanic Community. There have been many seeds sown, and now God is going to give the increase. Now that it is finally here, I will miss it greatly. But I know that God has other things in store for me. I positively cannot wait to find out what that is!
