Invited...

I have begun this blog about ten times and erased it because no words can describe how humbled and loved and honored and special I feel when I think of what the Lord has done for me... where I have come from and where He is taking me(tears). I could go on forever about how great God is and how I have seen His power in my life- but thats not why I am writing today.... I am writing because I want to invite you to a very special occasion (well, its special to me). Recently, by the grace of God, I have graduated from Koinonia Church Minister Training Class. Now, each week my pastor is taking me under his wing and discipling me to be a more effective minister of the Gospel- allowing me to write sermons and minister to him. All this to say, on July 19th, I have been given the great honor and responsiblity to preach at my church for the first time. It will also be my last Sunday at Koinonia Church before I head off to St. Louis and then finally land in Kenya for the next two years. So here are the details:

Please keep me in your prayers. It is a great responsibility to preach- and I only want to say what God would have me to say. I pray that I am able to be diligent in my studies and prayers. I pray that everyone that comes whether they come to support me or to hear the word- leaves changed by the presence of God. Thank you and be blessed!
