Summer '08 Wrap Up

Since moving to Miltonvale the thought was that life would be slower in Kansas. It definitely is slower but still has a lot going on.

One week we had Jason and Joanna Sturtivant talking about their mission work in Ukraine. I think that was the week of July 13. The next week the group called Witness from Union Bible College came and sang to us. Some one stated we had 52 in attendance for that service. That appears to be a record since the move to Miltonvale. The next week was the start of McPherson Camp. But more on that later.

One Sunday evening service, I think it was July 13th, the Lord distinctly moved giving his children a Spirit of praise, singing, and testimony. The manner of the service lasted such a length of time the people and pastor were satisfied with just a moment of scripture reading and then dismissal instead of the usual 30-40 minute sermon. Not every service CAN be like that one; but how encouraged everyone was that God would move in such a wonderful way and then realize how much more He wants to do in the future. Keep praying for the Miltonvale Church.
