From the BBA Prayer Ministry Team Leader Just thinking about people being saved and the importance of prayer on their behalf. I sure am convinced that the eternal salvation of folks depends upon our prayers. I would say to save a person from hell was primarily what the cross and the sacrifice of Christ were all about. But God has ordained that prayer is the pathway over which the Holy Spirit may go to bring conviction to the sinner’s heart. Surely this should motivate us to pray. Think about it, if we do not pray, people will stay lost and eventually spend eternity in hell. May God give us a burden for lost souls, may He convict us of our lack of prayer for the lost. May He give us boldness and the courage to share the good news of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. I urge you to share the gospel with someone this month. In His Grip, Bro.

I urge you to share the gospel with someone this month.

It’s time to pack shoe boxes. As I work, I
like to keep in mind that the shoe box
gifts are just the beginning. The 12-week
Bible Study called The Greatest Journey
follows. Lessons are written in the child’s
own language and taught by trained local
teachers. Those who successfully
complete the lessons are presented a
New Testament in their language. Not
only do the children have God’s Word to read; their parents and
grandparents have an opportunity to learn. Many are saved. That’s what I
pray for.
According to Operation Christmas Child, this is one of the “Largest
Discipleship Movements in the World.” Just think, packing a shoe box is part
of that movement! Learn more at samaritanspurse.org/occ

Greetings from LTBRM! Now that summer is officially over, we have slowed down a lot. It has been such a blessing to be here and to serve the lake community. As we move into the colder months, we ask that you would consider giving. Giving could be in the form of prayers and encouragement, by helping with clean up, or through a monetary donation. We would love to get to know your church and will be visiting many churches over the next couple of months. If you or your church would like to be a part of the ministry at Lake Texoma, please call Pete Richards at 580-579-1671. Thank you all for your support over the last few months. We look forward to what God has in store for us at LTBRM!
