The First Service at New Location

Praise the Lord. Today we had our first service at the new location. We may be at a new place but we're still doing the same old things: preaching, praying, singing, and shouting. We enjoyed the morning service despite the heat. Sure beats the heat and flames of hell! Amen right there. Can't wait to see what God's going to do tonight.

Beginning of a Great Future

Today, we poured the foundation to our new church building. God has blessed us tremendously with the purchase of 7.75 acres of land and the building of our first facility.

We know that just as this building will be built upon a strong and sturdy foundation of concrete, so must the ministry of GWBC be built upon the sure foundation of God's Word!!

God is doing great things at GWBC

Over the last few weeks, we have seen God move in great areas. People saved, people joining the church, new ministries being started are just a few. We are so happy to have seen Billy and Tina Holley get wonderfully saved and to see Elkin and Karen Harnage join the church.

The people of GWBC worked hard this past Saturday setting up new Sunday school rooms and a nursery. We are getting ready for the increase of people God is about to send to us.

Plans are in the works for the purchase of one or even two buses for our bus ministry. Please keep this in prayer that God would use this ministry to reach the children and families of Cook County.

I'm excited about the new nursery we are making available. Sis. Francis Tidwell has accepted the position of Nursery Coordinator at GWBC. I know she will do a great job in offering an exciting and safe environment for children and their families.

Let me encourage you to come and see first hand the progress and unfolding future of God's work at God's Way Baptist Church.

I'm such a blessed man to pastor such great people at GWBC.

Another Soul Saved!!

Praise the Lord! This past Sunday morning we saw another precious soul walk the aisle and get born again. Sis Tina Holley has joined the family of God and united in fellowship with GWBC. Please keep her in your prayers. Just a few weeks ago, her husband Billy got saved on a Wednesday night.

In His Amazing Love

January Jubilee

Praise the Lord! What a wonderful service we had Friday night to kick off the new year. Bro. Brian Fail, Bro. Brad Bailey, and Bro. Chad Bailey preached fine messages filled with God's truth and power. The ladies of GWBC out did themselves with great food and desserts. The church was blessed by many special singers from other churches as well as from our own church family. I thank God for another wonderful meeting.
