Today (Wed. Mar. 2) we drove to Nolanville, TX, which is near Fort Hood, a US Army base. We were there to visit Northside Baptist Church (Pastor Olton Phillips). We had the privilege to present the ministry and preach to these dear people, and amongst this church of soldiers and their families we found some prayer warriors. We stayed in one of their two first class missions apartments over night.
One of the challenges for a church with a large part of its membership serving in the Armed Forces is that due to transfers of personnel the membership changes very dramatically every 3 to 5 years. The Pastor told us that they currently have 20 members overseas serving with the US Forces.

ReplyDeleteThe warmth must be so nice, it was -10 yesterday with a wildchill of -20 or so.
Take care!
