We (Generations Church) had a block party last night over at the Waterside Apartments. We cookd 150 hamburgers and many more hot dogs. We had a blow up jumper. We gave away an ipod shuffle a bicycle and much more. We had one of our talented guys rap and give his testimony. Then our youth did a human video. The best was last we had 8 children come to Christ. I love to live out loud for God. We are making a difference in the spiritual climate of our city. Pictures to follow.
Peace 2 You,

Inspired in Transniestria
Sorry, I will not have any pictures to post until my friend Gary gets back. I went into the Black Sea with my camera in my swimming suit pocket the very first day, so I have zero pictures.
I just returned from a 10 missions trip to Transniestria (Eastern Europe). I always come home so challenged and changed from trips like this. We go as Americans to encourage and serve but somehow I always end up receiving as much as I give. Here is a short list of what I came home with this year.
- More VISION
- Importance of FELLOWSHIP & ACCOUNTABILITY
- The power of FAITH
- EVANGELISM is still the main thing
I saw all of these in action and they inspired me!
The church we ministered with has a ministry of personal visitation going on that is bringing in a harvest of souls daily. Lord send us your passion for souls.
P. S.
The camp that I did just outside Odessa, Ukraine was amazing. The seaside was the highlight for me as I look back at it.

Do The Obvious
How many times have we wondered or even asked someone: WHAT IS THE ONE KEY? WHAT IS THE ONE THING TO DO TO MAKE IT GROW?
There is not a magic formula for success, growth, and prosperity. It is that we do many many things and we do them over and over and over again. Like having done all to stand, stand . . . Eph 6:10-14. .
We make it way to hard. GREAT LEADERS DO THE OBVIOUS!! Too many people are looking for short cuts.
1. Plan to grow - have a vision, purpose, goal, bulls-eye. (Prov 29:18)
2. Develop diligence - work hard, SLACK = LACK (Prov 10:4)
3. Be holy - live right, be right, talk right, think right (Heb. 12:14)
4. Be generous - we live to give and we love to give (Prov 11:25)
5. Receive the Win - learn how to close the deal by receiving. (Luke 6:38)
