Last Sunday was a wonderful celebration for the 70th anniversary for the Lord’s church here in Summerville. It was a wonderful blessing to have Pastor Doyle Wilson’s son, Michael, here to share about his parents and their ministry here at the beginning of Summerville Baptist Church. The lunch was wonderful for all who stayed to enjoy it, and those who took part in the praise service following the luncheon were greatly blessed. It was exciting to share in the afternoon service the missions decision of the church family. It was a great way to celebrate the Lord’s church by acting on what is near to the heart of God by moving forward in supporting missionaries and helping missionaries with projects. I am thankful that we added a new missionary with the Clark family and Lighthouse Children’s Home. I am grateful that we were able to send out several thousand dollars in checks this week to help meet construction and other various needs for missionary ministries. It is an honor for a biblical church to help other servants of God in the work God has called them to do with Him. In our most recent leadership meetings last month, I shared ideas for new ministries that we are praying about to begin in the future. We want to keep moving forward as a church. We want to keep making progress in ministering to new people. We want to be content with what God has done, but not complacent about the future. I am thankful for various new ministries we have started in the recent history of the church, the newest of which is the service that we began on Easter Sunday in the Union County Jail. We have held services each week in the jail and the Lord has saved souls and touched lives through this ministry, and we give Him praise for it all. Until the Lord returns, we want to continue moving forward in His work. I was blessed when Brother Michael Wilson declared how the original church family paid as they went in the construction of the first building, just like was done by the church for this building, and what we desire to do for the ministry center building. I hope everyone will commit themselves to do their part to help the Lord’s church continue moving forward in the work of God according to the Word of God by the power of God.
