Dear Friends,

     The devil, who is our enemy, is alive and well in this world.  He shows himself constantly at Church on the Street.  While I'm preaching God's word, there will be a fight going on outside, the bathroom will be flooding, and cell phones will be ringing.  I keep on going.  The Word of God must be preached.  As soon as I'm done, all the chaos stops.  It isn't mandatory for people to listen to the sermon at Church on the Street.  They are free to wait outside, so the devil uses them to create chaos.  He isn't very creative though.  It's been this way for years.  However, I did used to stop preaching and deal with the issues.  Not anymore- everything else can wait.  God's Word must be preached.  How will they hear without a preacher?  Romans 10:14  Please continue to pray that souls would be saved. 

     I have started a Saturday morning men's church service.  It is for truly saved men who are striving to live holy and pleasing lives unto God.  We encourage one another and keep each other accountable.  It has been a blessing.  We started with 3 of us, now we're up to 10.  Praise the Lord!

     Thank you for standing beside us in this ministry.  We are truly blessed.  Happy Independence Day!
