Ebenezer

Well, 2011 will be history in a couple of hours and I am sure we all can look back with mixed emotions. For me, this year I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Needless to say, it changed our lives. This year my 16-year old grandson, Trenton  had his 17th back surgery. But I do not want  you to think this year has been all bad.

For the last several years my wife and I have endeavored to become debt free. This year we reached that goal! I have seen people in my congregation mature in their faith dramatically. Though we are all facing economic challenges, our church has met all our financial obligations.

I want to go on record that I realize that we could not have made it without God's help. 1 Samuel 7:12 "Then Samuel took a stone and set it up... He named it Ebenezer, saying, "Thus far has the LORD helped us."
