week in review
17/03/2024 13:33
This was a utility week to push forward on the building. I did get out in evangelism with Pastor Dillman on Wednesday over in his area. We didn't have any opportunities to speak with anyone, but we put out several hundred Gospel flyers.
Otherwise, the Lord allowed us to finish the back wall of the...
Facebook update

Our church keeps a facebook page primarily for a public testimony in our local community. We do enjoy the greetings from our friends all around the world as well. The handle on facebook is "freebaptistlothian." Here is a link.
Here is my update from tonight - Platform backdrop is finished once...
Platform Background
11/03/2024 20:44
Some of you may have wondered what we meant by wall decoration. We put panels behind the platform today. These still need to be primed and painted. A cross is also going on the wall near the peak. We postponed the carepet for a couple more weeks as we needed breathing space to finish the work. A...
Happy Mother's Day

Today is mother's day in Scotland. Katie found some nice flowering gifts for the ladies of our church. Some flowers went home with the husbands and grandads as well to be given to the women in their lives.
I preached a message this morning from Jude 20-25 entitled, "Be Like Yer Mum." It was an...

The Lord allowed us to delay the carpet installation and piano delivery for a few weeks. This is a blessing as we have more time to get finishing work completed. There is no reason to paint after we install, IF we can do so before. We also have a group coming from Nolansville, TN (Pastor Waddle's...
The Lord was a carpenter....

Well, the Lord was a carpenter and so he understands physical work to make something beautiful. We have put in a lot of hours this week on the property. It's fun to see our church family take their weekly walk into the back of the church to see the sanctuary progress. That isn't the only thing that...
life is going fast here.

This has been a good week, but we blinked and now it is Wednesday. I was able to street preach on Monday. The weather was beautiful and I couldn't keep from getting out even though we had much building works to do. We worked there on Monday and Tuesday. The screeding of the floor on Tuesday went...
Have you got trouble?

The topic of my message this morning was appropriate after my wife missed the bottom rung on the ladder yesterday while painting at church. We had a trip to minor injuries and thankfully, nothing is broken. Please pray for her knee to heal up and that we'll have wisdom if she did any lasting...
Interesting week....

This has not been a normal week. But, it has been a good week. We are in the final stretch on our sanctuary remodel and felt the need to put in some extra time. So, Monday was a church work day. We're trying to get finishing work done before the carpet is laid in two weeks time. Please pray for...
building and church progress
18/02/2024 13:25
God is helping us to progress on our building and is also progressing our church. On the church front, we have a man taking up and new responsability weekly at church. This is a wonderful blessing. We also had a family revisit this past Wednesday night. That was encouraging. We've also had a steady...
