Greetings one and all,
 
     Boy, where does the time go.  It seems like just yesterday I was sending out the "New Years" news letter, and here it is already the fifth month of the year.  Time sure does fly when your having fun serving the Lord.  Lately we have had the opportunity to travel each Sunday up to Browning Montana and preach at a church on the reservation.  Their Pastor had to leave last year due to health issues, and they have been without a Pastor ever since.  For the last three months now, Karen and I have had the blessing of filling that need for them.  Please pray that God will bring a full time Pastor their way soon.  We have committed to continue Pasturing for them until they find someone full time.  Also, God has also opened the door to start doing weekly Bible studies in the Harlowton area.  Along with Pastor Snyder of Lewistown, we go down on Tuesdays and meet with several wonderful, godly families for a time of fellowship, worship, and Bible Study.  Our goal is to get a Fundamental Baptist Church started in that area.  There are no fundamental churches in the whole county, and there is a defiantly need.  Please keep this young work in your prayers, and please pray for the people in the area.
     Also, we recently celebrated the one year anniversary of the church that we started in Grass Range.  Again, Pastor Snyder of Lewistown has been traveling to that area every Sunday evening to fellowship and preach to those in that area.  The work remains small, but those that come are faithful....even traveling to Lewistown on Sunday Mornings to attend Church there.  This has been an unexpected blessing that we did not count on.  I have my eyes on several other communities in Central Montana, and as God allows, will be seeing what He has in store for them.
     As summer draws closer, our attention is turning to several major ministries that we have planned.  On of them, "Central Montana Revival of Hope" is especially on my mind.  This is a comprehensive effort of three major ministries....Lighthouse Baptist Church out of Lewistown, Baptist Circuit-Riding Missions out of Guernsey Wyoming, and Frontier Ministries out of Great Falls Montana.  This huge outreach will be based out of Lewistown, but it's effect will reach almost coast to coast.  First, this ministry will be a weekly revival for the Lewistown and surrounding area.  Secondly, it will be an outreach to approx. five outlying towns, and Thirdly, it will be a working conference for many godly Men, Women, and Teens who are coming from all over to participate in.
     First off, this will mark the third annual "Revival of Hope" that Lighthouse Baptist Church conducts for the town of Lewistown.  Kenny Marr and his Team will be there with Southern Gospel Singing and Preaching.  There will be three meals a day provided with the first service kicking off July 4th, and proceeding through the 9th.  For more information, or to donate to this worthy ministry, you can click on the link above.
     Secondly, Baptist Circuit-Riding Missions out of Guernsey Wyoming will be conducting an Old Fashion Gospel Town Outreach in several outlying towns.  We will be doing Vacation Bible Schools in the early evening in at least three towns, and then later on, having Old Fashion Gospel services.  Also, we will be sending teams out to several other towns throughout the week with the sole purpose of passing out Gospel tracts and winning folks to the Lord.   We will be utilizing many of the teens that come, as well as other soul-winners that are scheduled to come in for the week.  Our prayer would  be that, as a result of these teams work, doors will be open for further Church planting.
     Thirdly, we are expecting several missionaries, Pastors, Evangelist, and youth workers to come in for this week long ministry.  They are coming in from as far away as the East Coast, with many coming from surrounding states.  The first service in the morning will be directed towards those of us who are in the ministry full or part time.  As such, it will be a time of spiritual growth for all of us as well.  Songs, Hymns, good food, Preaching and fellowship will go a long way in giving each of us strength for the work ahead.  After this, many of us will split up into teems and spend the afternoon going to the surrounding towns for soul-winning and the above mentioned meetings.  Later, some of these Ministers will return to Lewistown and preach at the Revival of Hope.  This is shaping up to be a one-of-a-kind outreach to Central Montana. Please pray...pray...pray...for this huge, comprehensive outreach.  If you can, we would love to have you come as well.  Also, if you feel God would have you help support this outreach, you can click HERE , or the link above, and then click on the donate button.  Your gift of any size will be used for food, gas, VBS supplies, and love offerings for the various workers.  Thank you in advance for you prayers and support.
     Also, a few weeks after this meeting, I have scheduled to do Frontier Ministries annual Bible Camp.  This camp is primarily for those who can not afford to go to other camps, or, because of timing, distance, or one thing or another, can not go to other camps.  We also have a number of kids who go to our camp and go to others as well.  We only charge $30 per kid for the whole week, and have scholarships available for many who do not even have that.  This year we are opening the camp up to teens as well as Junior age children.  The teens will be involved in helping with the Junior kids, and will also have their own services and activities.  This is a great time for the children and youth workers as well.  In the past, many children have come to know the Lord as their Saviour while at came, and many have heard the call to full time Christian service as well.  We have a lot of food, great activities, crafts, and trips planned for all ages.  If you are in the area and would like to be a youth worker, or have children you are interested in sending, you can contact me at the information listed below.  Since this camp is geared to minister to those who may not be able to pay for one reason or the other, we keep the cost very low.  This however does not lower our cost.  We still have to pay for the use of the camp, the food, the gas, insurance, and supplies.  Most of the time, we end up spending a lot of money out of our own pocket just so we can minister to this children.  I would like to give you an opportunity to sponsor a child if God has laid it on your heart.  Again, for the low price of $30, a child can have a spirit filled week at camp.  If you would like to sponsor a child (or two or three), you can click HERE, and then click the donate button.  At the end of the donation process, you can leave a note and let me know it is for the Bible camp.  We will assign a child that is waiting for a scholarship to that money, and notify them that they are able to come.
     In closing, I would like to remind everyone of the "Darkness To Light" DVD's and the "Adopt-A-Town" ministry that I am doing.  To date, we have sent out over 1000 DVD's with four people making a public profession of faith in Jesus Christ.  These are just the people who have emailed me.  I'm sure there is much more that God has done.   We have also sent some to Pastors in different areas who are handing them out in their local communities.  I heard from a young couple a month ago who said they were inviting their friends, family members, and neighbors to their house each week, and then setting down and watching the DVD with them.  They have then used it as an opportunity to answer questions their guest might have, and to witness to them.  I thought that was an exciting ministry they could do right out of their own home.  We have had four towns adopted so far, and would love to have many more.  As you may know, once a town is adopted, I send the "Darkness To Light" DVD to every address in that zip code.  About two weeks later, I travel to the town and do follow up door-to-door witnessing.  There are several youth groups that I know of that are doing fundraising events with the goal of raising enough money to adopt a town.  This is exciting in that even youth groups can get behind this ministry and have a large part in reaching a whole town for Christ.  Others have told me that as soon as they get their tax refund back, they will be adopting a town.  I do pray they will all follow through with what God has laid on their heart.  Maybe you would like to sponsor a town in Montana or surround states.  If so, you can go to my website listed below or click HERE, and then hit the "donate" button.  You can donate as much or as little as you like.  You can even click on one of the links on the map to see how much it would cost to adopt that whole town.  By donating that exact amount, I will know which town you want to adopt, and will update you on it's progress, as well as send you an "adoption" certificate for the town you adopted.
     I truly appreciate each and every person who helps support this ministry.  Without you doing what God has told you to do, I would not be able to do what He has told me to do.  It takes a lot of money to conduct this ministries in a way that gives honor to Jesus Christ.  By donating to these ministries, you are donating towards a persons eternity.  All donations go directly, 100% towards what you say it should.  We do not use a penny for personal things....unless you say it is for us.  Again, thank you for all you have done in the past, and please consider giving now for one or all of these specific outreaches.  Your donations are greatly needed and appreciated.  May God bless you in a great way.
