Thank you for your prayers for our day of service and ministry on Sunday. We had a full morning and afternoon of ministry (and then relaxed in the evening at a park/pool close to the church we are staying.)
We started our morning worshiping downtown Cleveland with City View Community Church. Our missions team had a chance to lead two songs in the church service and Rachel Muckley gave her testimony. The church service was well attended (close to 50 including our team.) It was good to put names with faces of some of the people we heard about from the Taylor’s and Dockery’s ministries and be able to encourage this new church. For the Sunday School hour Terry taught the teen class a lesson from 2 Timothy 1.
Following the time at City View, we returned to Faith Baptist Church for a Community Dinner at 1:30, followed by their church service at 2:30 pm. The girls from our team did a puppet skit and we also had a chance sing special music in the service. The song we did was “Our God.” The words are appropriate for stepping out and serving God in a new setting.
“Our God is Greater, Our God is stronger, our God is higher than any other. Our God is healer, Awesome in power, our God, our God!”
We had a full evening as well – we had some team bonding time at a community pool, grilled out (and in), and then paid Brad Dobney a visit at Lower Edgewater park near downtown Cleveland.
Right now we are loading up the van and trailer and heading to the Taylor’s house for our last missions project. We will be doing acts of kindness in their neighborhood (landscaping and other projects.) After lunch with the Taylor’s we will be heading back for Canton. See everyone soon!
