DAY #6 - AMAZING GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH TENT REVIVAL - Columbus, Ohio

Today was the last weekday of the meeting.  The morning services (the first ever for this particular meeting) were absolutely wonderful and full of help and encouragement.  The Lord sure did direct Pastor Hood in not only starting them but in giving wisdom as to who was to preach.  There were good sized crowds each day numbering in the 50's.  This morning there were two preachers and some testimonies before lunch.

Tonight was also another good service.  The Lord brought the temperature down a bunch and it was wonderful.  When the service started at 7:00 it was a breezy 80 degrees out.  It was by far the coolest day we have seen in over two weeks of temperatures non-stop in the 90's and even several very hot triple-digit days.  There was a bunch of special music before the only preacher of the night got up.  What a wonderful message we heard on "A Lack of Communication" from Evangelist Earl Ankrom.  One lady came forward during the invitation and was dealt with.  When asked why she came she very plainly and tearfully said "I need to get saved"!  What a blessing!

It has become a tradition over the last several years to have a big cookout after the Friday evening service.  Most folks stayed around for the food and the fellowship.

Being Friday, many folks from out of town will be leaving tomorrow.  There will be groups from New York, Pennsylvania, Arkansas and Virginia hitting the road.  We will still be having service tomorrow (Saturday) night at 7:00 and expect to see folks from other churches be under the tent.  Most of the preachers and singers will be gone but a couple of us will stay behind to finish the meeting.

Today's preachers and messages-
MORNING SERVICE:
Pastor Keith Woodby - "Beat the Heat"
Pastor Toure Carter - "You Can End Well"

EVENING SERVICE:
Evangelist Earl Ankrom - "A Lack of Communication"
