October 2015 Update - Part Two

CALVARY BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH - Elbridge, New York...


It was our privilege for the third year in a row to be back at Calvary Bible Baptist Church in Elbrdige - a little town about 20 miles west of Syracuse.  Pastor George Burkinshaw started this church over 35 years ago and has been faithful all these years.  On top of the struggles of pastoring the church - he is the sole care provider for his dear wife who is in the final stages of dimentia.  I admire him for being so determined to stick it out as long as he is able.  The devil has fought him very hard over the last couple of years in ways that are hard to believe but he has definitely stayed with the stuff.  Because of some circumstances we mutually agreed to just have a Sunday and Wednesday meeting instead of a multi-day revival.  Stacie and I enjoyed some good fellowship with the preacher and some of his people.  Many thanks to Pastor Dave Dunbar in Auburn for allowing us to park the bus there for the week.  It was our prayer to try and be an encouragement to this church.

GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH - Newark, Ohio...

This was our first time being at this church located about 45 miles east of Columbus.  Troy Kahler served as the church's associate pastor for 14 years in the past.  The church called him to be the pastor back in January of this year.  Evangelist Gary Lutrick and myself preached for Bro. Kahler while he was in New York prior to this and it was a blessing for us both to be here for a meeting.  The church spent much time in prayer in the weeks leading up to the meeting with old fashioned "cottage prayer meetings" the week before.  Their efforts in prayer really were blessed as we had a GREAT meeting.  This was the first time this church had a meeting with two preachers in the same week.  Bro. Kahler reported to us all week about how his folks were telling him during how the Lord was working in their lives.  He also said people who he had never seen at the altar were there multiple times during the week.  I believe it is safe to say that this was really a REVIVAL meeting.  We are already looking forward to being back next October.

GREAT DAY AT HIGHWAY BAPTIST CHURCH - Dayton, Ohio - March 22, 2014

We traveled about 2.5 hours this past Saturday to Dayton, Ohio to be with Highway Baptist Church on Sunday.  My friend Cliff Parks started this church almost ten years ago.  He was in evangelism for a number of years then God called him to start the church.  I preached their first anniversary back in 2006 and it was good to be there again.  We enjoyed a great time of fellowship with Bro. Parks and his family on Saturday night and Sunday night and then enjoyed a church fellowship after the morning service.  The Lord gave us three good services on Sunday with a sweet spirit and a good response to the preaching.

The story of how and where God started this church is pretty neat.  I remember when Bro. Parks shared with me how God had put this on his heart and he had a burden to reach one of the busiest areas in the country - at the intersection of Interstates 70 and 75.  I had the privilege to go with him and look at several buildings and then God opened the door for the building where they continue to meet today.

There are several signs around the church - many with the 'highway theme'.  I have uploaded them on a separate post.
