I hope and pray all is well with you and yours.
It has now been 7 weeks since beginning this years mission. So far we've enjoyed the
privilege of sharing the gospel in song with 26 Nursing Homes and 4 Churches. To God
Be The Glory!

Libraries are closed this Presidents Day holiday. Finally found access to the internet at
a Burger King where I was able to publish the update.
Crossed the border into Mississippi and ministered at the "Adams County Nursing
Center" in Natchez. The activity director wanted me to take over a weekly service already
scheduled. The leader (Bill) very graciously turned it over to me and started to leave. I
encouraged him to stay and help.
He agreed. Opened with a prayer, read some scripture part way through and closed with
a prayer. He also helped involve this large flock to sing along, with lots of Amen's,
Halleluiah's and hand clapping. We enjoyed an awesome time of worship.

Then on down the road I stopped at a very large church (Salem Heights Baptist) where
folks gave me a place to park and plug in the heater. They shared their fellowship dinner,
