LOCALBOY PRAYER UPDATE
May 19, 2010


Greetings All,

It’s been near 3 weeks since returning from Home Assignment.  My jetlag is nearly gone.  There are still some mornings when getting out of bed is a real task.  I’m glad however, that I’m sleeping through the night, not waking up at crazy times staring at the ceiling.  Again, thank you to everyone who made my HA a very special blessing.

The time is nearly here for the Induction Service, commissioning me to become the new pastor for Acocks Green Baptist Church.  I’m convinced that this will be a cultural experience unlike any I’ve had before.  I ask for your prayers, first, that Jesus will be lifted up at this service.  This service is less about me and more about the faithfulness of our loving Lord.  Secondly, pray for the relationship between myself and the church body to continue in the sweet fellowship that first drew me to this her.

I’m already seeing the movement of the Holy Spirit in this fellowship.  Beginning on Tuesday of this week the people of the church volunteered their time and voices to a very public reading of the entire Bible.  Two brothers from the church organized this reading.  It is an amazing thing to watch folks come by the church with curious glances and inquiries about what’s going.  I pray that this and other noticeable changes in the church will prove to be the beginning of exciting days at AGBC.

I thank you for your ongoing support for this work.  Your prayers are felt and appreciated.

Yours, in His Fellowship
Kevin D
