Dear Higher Ground,
Progress! The worship center is coming together nicely as a result of your generous giving, prayers and a lot of hard work from multiple volunteers. By next Sunday, we should be looking at full completion of the carpeting and baseboards. We can check this off the list and move on to the next project which will likely be the start of trying to address the exterior needs for touch-up paint where it is peeling. As you know, this is a very unsightly problem that we are desperate to get rectified. Please pray that the Lord will lead us to the best option for accomplishing this task.
On September 10th, I’ll be starting a brand new sermon series from the book of Joshua! I anticipate being in this study for nine months up to a year. This great Old Testament writing is full of adventure, victory, defeat, great characters and of course, a faithful, omnipotent God! I’m very excited about getting this one started in a couple of weeks. I encourage you to go ahead now and begin reading from Joshua…you should have time to read through it a couple of times before we get started.
We’re in the book of Philippians tonight as I’m preaching on the humiliation of Christ and the cross that he bore. I’ll see you back at 6:00 for the evening service.
For His Glory,
Pastor Richard
