January 2011

I have no idea how to begin this new post. January 2011 has almost disappeared and February 2011 is fast approaching.

I have no idea what 2011 holds for Cartersville Baptist Church. For the past several months our attendance has been down in Sunday School, Worship Service and the children's program. The one area that is doing great is youth. The youth area is  exploding!

What does this mean! Especially for David and I. Why are some areas not doing well and this one area doing great! David and I have been praying constantly over this and still no answer from God. All we can do is pray and God's will and guidance.

Speaking of our youth - tonight the youth are going Midnight Bowling! Something they have not done in a long time. David and I are going to meet them at Cici's Pizza and then go bowling. Oh my, I hope I am up to all this excitment. Our youth leaders are wonderful. I am so thankful to Chip Kempson and Alex Weatherly who have shown the youth of church how Godly men should be.

Please continue to pray for church. Please seek God's will and see where he wants you to serve at Cartersville. Also, if there is anyone out there reading this who does not have a home church we would love to have you visit Cartersville. The one thing that has not changed is the loving spirit that flows through our small church. Come and experience that for yourself - we would love to have you worship with us.

More importantly, if there is anyone out there who has not made a profession of faith please consider doing so today. Time is drawing near for the Lord to return. I want everyone to be ready - if you need to talk to someone about becoming a Christian contact or pastor, David George or myself, his wife, we would be glad to talk to anyone about the most important decision someone ever makes.
