Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Greetings.
I hope and pray all is well with you and yours.
It has now been 50 weeks since beginning this years mission. So far we've enjoyed
the privilege of sharing the gospel in song with 193 Nursing Homes and 44
Churches. To God Be The Glory!
Monday December 8 th ~
Published the update from a Hastings Book Store in Kerrville, Texas. then
ministered at the "Rolling Hills Health & Rehab Center" for a large group of folks.
As I finished singing "Softly & Tenderly" which has a line ("ye who are weary come
home"), one of the residents exclaimed "Let's Go"!
Tuesday December 9 th ~
Cleaned up the Parsonage. Said my goodbye's, and headed southwest, stopping in
Camp Wood, Texas at the "Cedar Hills Geriatric Center". The whole time I was
there, one poor soul continually pleaded "Oh God! Help Us! Oh God! Help Us!" She
only stopped to sing along with the songs and to ask me to pray for here three
different times. Which I did. May God Comfort Her!
Wednesday December 10 th ~
Sang at the "Amistad Care Center" in Uvalde, Texas.
Attended mid-week services at the "New Testament Fellowship" church where I
enjoyed the Honor of contributing a couple of songs. These dear folks also allowed
me to park at the church building and plug in my electric heater on this below 30
degree night. May God Bless Them!
Thursday December 11 th ~
Sang at the Small assisted living facility in town for six residents. Then ministered
at the "Uvalde Healthcare & Rehab Center". A seemingly Dark place, spiritually
speaking. Please pray for some Light.
Friday December 12 th ~
Spent the day driving a couple hundred miles through southwest Texas to Fort
Stockton.
Saturday December 13 th ~
Another day of driving a couple hundred miles to the west side of El Paso. About
halfway there, I was able to get a shower thanks to the kind folks at the "Christian
Shelter" in Van Horn, Texas. May God Bless Them!
Sunday December 14 th ~
Attended the "Westside Community Church" here in El Paso, Texas Enjoyed a
sweet fellowship lunch with a large group. Joe (the pastor) gave me access to the
church building to do some laptop work, then during an evening gift exchange
service I had the Honor of contributing several songs.
And So Begins Another Week.
May The Lord Our God
Guard, Guide And Direct You.
In The Name Of Jesus. Amen!
Yours In Christ, Larry
