03/21/2020 - The End of a Time

Our lil family has had 13 Sundays of leading P&W and preaching at our lil campground. Some Sundays we had 2 people besides us and last Sunday we had 15. God has grown us alot. Mike had to step up to preach and I had to learn how to sing and play the piano. Mike let me preach last Sunday. I preached on Egypt, are you ready to stay in bondage or are you ready to cross over the unknown seas to Canaan aka freedom. We had a couple that have came every Sunday for the past 4 weeks and today they brought us this note before they head home. You see this coronavirus has shut down all State campgrounds and everybody is leaving. The KOA did staff cut backs and isnt accepting any tent or long term campers right now. We may be looking for a new place very soon. In less than a week, to everyone else our complete ministry is shut down. But Mike and I aren't normal, tomorrow we will still have Sunday church, not in the pavilion but on our lil concrete slab by the camper. Sunday church isnt cancelled only the building is closed. Church isnt the building but the people, so pray and ask God what He wants you to do during this time. Worship Him in your home, with no lights or instruments and experience God in a new way. For the past 13 weeks, we have gone to church from 9-11:45, lunch, 1-4:30 getting ready and having church at campground, resting for 30 min, then leaving for babysitter pickup and residency class 6-9pm, and home by 10:30pm. Mondays were hard but we loved Sunday because as a family we learned to start a church service and grow in God. Tomorrow will be church for us but it will be a restful time as we worship at home. God is good, worship Him.
