We are just now picking up our blog again since the busy summer camp schedule and will do our best to keep you informed on our whereabouts and happenings in travels. \u00a0On August 14, we arrived to Kings Mills Baptist Church to host a Choir Clinic and Friend Day for the weekend. \u00a0The two-hour clinic was well attended, and all seemed to enjoy the concentrated time of music practice and instruction. \u00a0Sunday morning service was the highlight of the weekend, since members had been purposefully seeking out folks who needed Christ for the last several months in order to invite them for this special day. \u00a0Praise the Lord for a father and son who realized their need and both trusted Christ that day! \u00a0 After the service, members headed over to the local park to host a “block party” for the surrounding neighbors. \u00a0A shaved ice truck, an inflatable, and free hot dogs were just some of the highlights of this time for KMBC members to reach out to their community. \u00a0Despite intermittent rain, it was a great time of fellowship with friends and neighbors.<\/p>\n

The next weekend, we arrived at Harvest Baptist Church of Louisville, KY, where friends Dusty and Hope Brian have just celebrated their first year of ministry there. \u00a0We met Bro. Dusty at Bethany Baptist of Lubbock, TX, where he had served as assistant pastor, so it was truly an honor to be with them in this new church for the weekend endeavor. \u00a0 Again, the choir clinic was very well attended, and members worked diligently to prepare music for the special “Friend Day” service. \u00a0Many guests arrived for the special day, and at least seven indicated that they had prayed to receive Christ! \u00a0We praise the Lord for the wonderful response! \u00a0After a delicious lunch, Tim preached an afternoon service to conclude our Friend Day at Harvest.<\/p>\n

We just arrived back to southeast Georgia (where Brittany hails from) after a super Sunday with Harvest Baptist Church of Jacksonville, FL. \u00a0Pastor Bryan Samms asked if our family could come while he was out of town preaching, so the Thompson crew provided special music while Tim preached both the morning and evening services. \u00a0We are eager to see what the Lord will do in and through Harvest of Jax as Pastor Samms has just assumed the pastorate there and is tenaciously seeking to lead his people to win their community. \u00a0Stay tuned!<\/p>\n

And as for friends….we are so grateful for the opportunities that the Lord gave us to spend time with special friends. \u00a0Whether in their home or at their church, we were refreshed and encouraged to spend time, enjoy fellowship, and share our hearts with dear friends from Ohio, Kentucky, and Florida. \u00a0Truly, godly friendships are a gift from the Lord!<\/p>\n

As I mentioned above, we’ll be in touch more often now that we’re back on the road. \u00a0Keep in touch, and thanks so much for your prayers for our family and the ministry to which He has called us.<\/p>\n

May the Lord find us faithful,
\nTim and Brittany<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
