Dearest Brothers and Sisters in Christ;

(RE: Mission Report for Henderson, NV. March 2008)

Again, what a wonderful month we have had bestowed on us here in Henderson, NV. By

our Awesome God. We are just almost finished with our building program here, and we

are seeing several people showing interest in uniting with us. We continually have

visitors attend, and we have several things planned to get our Mission out in front of the

area Neighborhood. Please, once again let me share these things with you.

REACHING THE NEIGHBORS:

We have several different things in the works to get people to know where we are

located, and to introduce them to our Mission work here for Christ. First, we have

purchased 3000 addresses within a 5 mile radius of our new building, and we are in the

process of mailing flyers out, with a map on how to get to the Church Building, along

with a special invitation to worship with us. We really feel as if this will bring some

added visitors to our church. We have applied for a Non Profit mail authorization from

the USPS and just yesterday received authorization for this. We will be making this

mailing in the next two weeks, please pray for us as we do this, that many will respond to

this mailing.

Also, in the area that the Church Building is located, there have been many break-ins to

the houses, which is very surprising considering the neighborhood, but the Henderson

Police Department and the neighbors are starting a neighborhood watch program for the

area. The Neighbors of Section 4 have contacted us and asked if they could utilize our

building to have this meeting. Bro. Don Goodman, our sponsoring Pastor, and I, very

excitedly said yes. The meeting is now planned for April 22, from 6 pm – 9 pm, and our

members are going to supply the refreshments. We feel as if this will give us a great

opportunity to invite our neighbors to worship with us.

And thirdly, we are planning now, a VBS for the area this year. This will be the first

summer that we will be in our building, and we are really looking forward to starting a

great tradition of having VBS each and every summer. I already have the sample kit

from the bookstore, and we are in the planning process right now. Pray for this as we get

ready to do this.

A Mission of Sweet Home Missionary Baptist Church of

Prattsville, AR. & FMBC of Sherrill, AR.

OUR FINAL STAGES OF BUILDING PROGRAM:

We finally are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel on our building program. We have

our Certificate of Occupancy (Temporary) pending the final completion of the

installation of our fire alarm. We have contracted Protection One to design and install

this for us; the final cost will be $3025. We have already paid $1500 down, and will pay

the remainder upon the final installation and inspection, when this is complete we will get

our final and permanent Certificate of Occupancy. Praise God!! We still do owe

significantly, along with our sponsoring Churches, Sweet Home MBC of Prattsville, AR.

And FMBC of Sherrill, AR. On our loan that we took out to complete everything. Please

consider helping us retire this debt as soon as feasible. We really do want to thank all of

you for staying with us for these years, just please help us with this one final thing. We

need your financial support as well as prayerful support. We love you all, thanks so

much. Come and see us sometimes.

OUR STATS FOR THE MONTH OF MARCH:

We continue to increase in stats, however, not as fast as we would like. Sometimes we

get impatient, but we must realize it is God that gives the increase, Amen? Here are our

stats for the month: Sunday School…33, Morning Worship…52, BTC…21, Sunday

Evening Worship…25, Wednesday Evening Bible Study…19, Number of first time

visitors…16, Number of repeat visitors…8, Professions of faith (outreach and at

church)…6, visits made my me personally…201 (door knocks and home visits). Please

pray that we may see much fruit come from these labors. We also have many of the

mission members visiting and knocking on doors around the area. These fields are truly

white into harvest, many are Mormon, pray that we may reach these with the TRUE

GOSPEL.

SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST:

Please pray for my Son in Law in Iraq, Spc. Tim Paddock-Chappell, he is getting shot at

daily, and we need God to protect him. Also, please pray for my daughter, Christy, and

granddaughter, Lorelei, as their husband and daddy are away from them. Please pray for

Sis. Anne Garriott’s son in law, Steve, who is a Chaplain in Afghanistan. Pray for Bro.

Randy Rodak, who is battling cancer in Salida, CO. He is the son in law of Phil and Judy

Ellis. Pray that we may reach many people for Christ in this place in Henderson, NV.

We love you all. May God Bless each of you. Especially the family of Pastor George

Raley, a good friend and mentor of mine, who was promoted just two days ago.

In Service for Christ,

Your Missionary to Henderson, NV.
