We had a car wash today at
the church. Dusty and Kristi held signs that said free car wash! We were
able to meet some people from our target area.

Ministry Needs for Sand Lake Fellowship
Ministry needs for Sand Lake
Fellowship are a Youth Leader/Pastor and a base guitar player. We
have an urgent need for at least one 15 passenger van. It would be great to get
the word out about this in case God lays it on someone's heart.

Sunday Evening Service - Prayer Requests
Sunday evening we had the same group as last week. Check out my Facebook for a short video. We had a great time of Praise and worship. Our leader is all
in with us now, he comes from a sister church in our association that
has plenty of talent and people to pick from. He feels called to work with us on
this "Church plant."
We went from 5-9. We had music/singing, prayer time, more music, then we visited until everyone left, I
still got home before dark!
Tuesday night "Outside the Walls" (OTW) went really great. Outside the Walls is now what we call any function not held at the church. Right now this is being held at McDonald's on Tuesday evening. At OTW this time, we talked with a bunch of people and prayed with a several. The interest seems to be building with those we approach. Please keep praying for God to move in great ways and help us get close to these kids.
Another prayer request is to pray for God to help us in a mighty way with a van to transport these kids. I just found out the van I was going to get from Texas is no longer available. God will provide!
Please also be in prayer for these two things: youth pastor/leader - church planter intern (an NAMB position). Also as already mentioned, be in prayer for transportation for the youth ....van.....
Thank you all so much for your prayers.

Updated Overview
April 6th Sand Lake Fellowship Church Plant started services
at 3340 Raspberry Road. The Filipino Bible Church has graciously
allowed us to meet in their facility at 6 p.m.
on Sundays. Our first night we had four in our praise and worship team
and they did a great job! If anyone is looking for a place to serve using
their musical/vocals talent for praise and worship we meet at 5 p.m. for practice. Right now we still need another acoustic or electric guitar and a violin. Our service is contemporary.
On Tuesday nights at 6 p.m.
you can find us at the Mc Donald's on the corner of Dimond and Jewell
Lake Road for "Outside The Walls" This is our midweek service. We all
meet at the restaurant and have a devotional or Bible study and pray and
talk about life application of scripture in our everyday walk. This is
growing and we want to add some P&W songs with acoustic guitar to
it. Pray that this will happen! My idea here is that most people
don't go to Church, so we will take the Church to them, we'll keep you
posted.
Love you,

First Night at Filipino Bible Church
We have to share this. Tonight was our first night at FBC. We gained a
keyboard/piano player today. They are playing and beginning to sound
pretty good practicing before Church. We have about as many praises
on our list as we do prayer requests. I call out all the praises then #1
on the prayer request list is a base player for the band which I have
prayed for. There is a young lady and her mom who has just showed up. When she
heard this she says My daughter plays all instruments and God just told
me to come here tonight! Oh yeah and she sings exceptionally. Check out the picture below, from left to
right, KC, Dusty, Buck and Jessica. Also, check out the video following the still photo.
God bless,

It will all happen as God wills
We went to the pool hall again Tuesday
night. I was able to talk with a few folks and invited a half dozen or so
to Church. We then went to our old standby McDonald’s across the street. There
we were able to engage at least twelve people.
I had the privilege of
presenting The Truth to a late teen’s guy there. It was a really good one!
I made a decision that we will stick with McDonald’s from now on for our
midweek service. There are just way too many people in and out for us to do it
anywhere else; also it is free to get into McDonald’s.
The young man I was talking to? His eyes were welling up, I know The Lord was working there, we will see him again. He had a girl with him that was totally pulling him away, but he continued to listen and read the scripture from my Bible. She had to literally pull him away from us. There is a lot of irony there isn't there?
We start at the FBC this Sunday night, please pray we will be ready and all will go well. Thank you so much for your prayers. Came home yesterday and went to bed at 6 p.m. exhausted. I have pastor classes tonight.

I got a bit of bad news from the
battle front. True North Church plant downtown has closed; they are the group sponsored
by Moberly out of Longview. They were
trying to reach the service workers downtown with a Monday night
service but closed it after 12 months or so for lack of interest and
combined back to the midtown place.
