My last post was titled "Busy April," and it certainly was. So busy in fact, that I can't believe it's the middle of May already. The Lord has been good through it all though.
I spent April 19-24 in Cedar Rapids, IA for a mission conference at Friendship Baptist Church. I really enjoyed that week, as I already knew many of the missionaries. It was a time of real encouragement and spiritual blessing. The following weekend, I was in Green Bay, WI. There I was able to stay with an old college roommate. It was fun to meet her family and catch up on her life.
From there, I drove to Milwaukee, WI to spend a few days with some friends. Lake Michigan was beautiful although the weather was quite windy and cool. I actually saw a few snow flakes -- in the last week of April!
On Wednesday, April 30, I spoke at Bethel Baptist Church in Schaumburg, IL. It is quite a large church, but everyone was kind and friendly, so I didn't feel too overwhelmed:-) The next two weekends (May 4 & 11), I spoke in Fort Atkinson and New Lisbon, WI.
At present, I am in Greenville, SC to speak at Mount Calvary Baptist this Wednesday evening. I always enjoy coming to Greenville as I still have many friends here, not to mention 2/3 of my immediate family (dad, brother, sister-in-law, and 2 nephews).
I have been having a bit of difficulty filling my schedule for this fall. Please pray with me that the Lord will lead me to those churches in which He would have me minister.
