Kentucky and Tennessee 3/29 - 4/5/2009

It was my privilege to share my call to missions and progress in the journey back to Cote d’Ivoire as a career missionary between March 29 and April 5 at these churches:

~Sun., 3/29: First Church of God, Morehead KY
~Sun., 3/29: First Church of God, Winchester KY (Home Church)
~Wed., 4/1: First Church of God, Greenville TN
~Thurs., 4/2: Meade Station Church of God WCG, Ashland KY
~Sat., 4/4: No. KY First Church of God WCG, Erlanger KY, Living Link
~Sun., 4/5: Larchmont Church of God, Louisville KY

What a joy to see Christ working through His faithful followers and learn of various ways folks are being His witnesses in their communities...food pantry, clothes closet and other service/outreach efforts, radio program, prep for a big Easter drama, Christian schools, fascinating relevant small group/class topics, dynamic preaching and vision casting...and much more. God is blessing His people and making them a blessing in a multitude of ways. Thank you for your warm welcomes and generous hospitality.

This series of visits was extra special because I got to share my missions story with my home church at Winchester and at other churches with some folks who had known my parents and Grandpa & Grandma Snowden.

It was a special treat to have lunch gathering with some of the Watts family (pic) and visit others. Thanks for your support and hospitality.

I drove 2990 miles in less than 10 1/2 days. It was Lexington, KY to Casselberry FL on Monday, then back to the library Tuesday morning to present a storytime program. I thank God for His traveling mercies and felt the power of prayers during that last tiring stretch.
