Bowling Green Kentucky
September 30th we were with pastor Rodney and Wanda Smith at Liberty General Baptist Church just outside Bowling Green, KY. It was so great to hear people who have walked for many years where we are headed and still have their passion for Christ. Their only regret being they didn’t give up all to completely follow Him sooner in life. To listen to Jerry, the former pastor of the church, stand up and with tears running down his face and talk about how he gave up his lively hood to follow God and his only regret is that he didn’t do it sooner. It’s what we needed to hear. To hear pastor Rodney tell of how they drive 60 miles each week to serve at the church because it’s what God wants them to do was so encouraging. At the end of the service they took up an offering to give us. They had already taken their normal weekly offering during the service. The offering they collected for us was 2/3 of their normal weekly offering. Amazing! They believe so much in what God is doing and going to do in Central America that they were willing to sacrifice to be a part of it. Once again, very humbling and very encouraging to be able to meet and spend some time with people who still have a passion for God and His work. Thanks.
