Greetings to Everyone,  

I hope in the Lord that everyone is doing well. Thank you so much for your prayers for Bridget and me during

our procedures. We take comfort in knowing that our brothers and sisters are praying for us and that you care. 

I pray for the Lord to help us not be partial and show the same love and concern for all of our brothers and

sisters. I believe reaching out and investing in one another is a wise investment in the family of God. There are

so many going through so much; knowing people truly care means a lot. As I have written before, I write again: 

2 Cor. 1:3-5 speaks of the comfort that God gives each of us, and that He wants His comfort to be an

overflowing comfort. This simply means that whatever Christ is doing for you, we should do for others in our

lives. There are many attributes of Christianity that need to overflow in our lives, especially in the family of

God. Do not stop there; people God puts in our pathway deserve to receive these attributes. It may surprise

you how meaningful it may be to someone. One thing that I have learned is that you can never outgive the

Lord in anything. The second thing is that you can never know what someone is going through in their life. 

What you say or do could make all the difference in the world to someone.  

I hope in the Lord you are inviting people to attend church. Remember, we are asking the Lord in prayer to

fill the chairs that He provided, not take the chairs out! I beseech each of you to do your part and reach out to

those people around you, at work, play, or even shopping. One last thought of an upcoming event: we will

have the Family Conference September 11-12, 2026. This will be a Friday evening and a Saturday morning until

noon. There will be fun, fellowship, food, singing, and most importantly, the word of God. Therefore, mark

your calendars and plan on bringing a guest with you.  

In Christ

Bro. Mike
