This month I am in the spirit of Thanksgiving. I am so thankful for the wonderful support that was given to our recent anniversary.

I am thankful for all of you who prayed for its success. Prayer is the most vital exercise that any of us can exercise in our spiritual lives. I know that you prayed for our staff as we tried to make sure all of those who had served in the past were recognized. I am grateful that Bro. Pat Anderson and his wife Joyce could be with us. I know that Pat enjoyed being in Ron Harris’s Sunday school Class. It is always a joy to see those that we had a part in leading to Christ now serving our Lord in faithful service.

Bro. Hallie Tolbert blessed us with a very stirring testimony of what Pershing Park Baptist Church had meant to him and to Westside Baptist Church.

Bro. Dean Parmer took us back to some challenging times and how God touched the life of this church and lifted them to great heights for His glory. We are grateful for the ministry of this wonderful servant of God and his labor of love here at Pershing Park Baptist Church.

Dr. J.A. Reynolds brought things to a close on Sunday evening as he challenged us with a stirring message. I am grateful for the friendship of this servant of God and his love for our church.

Nelda Milligan did a superb job in seeking to bring all of the former musicians back to be with us and to share in the services. Some wanted to be with us but circumstances prevented them from coming. Thanks Nelda for all you do in lifting our hearts to the Throne of God in worship and praise.

Thanks to the Fellowship Committee for a wonderful meal and to the Beautification Committee for the beautiful decorations. You all made us proud. Thanks to Janice and Michaeline for all you did. We love all of you and praise and thank God for you.

 

Prayerfully yours,

Joda K. Weston
