REPORT OF D. CHRIS THOMPSON<br />
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF EVUSA<br />
APRIL-MAY-JUNE, 2010<br />
I am really excited about these three months. I have been able to settle down into<br />
ministry and to get more into a normal routine. It has been my joy to serve in<br />
EVUSA. I have met many new people during these months. We have some<br />
powerful men and women of God serving in the IPHC. I am amazed at the working<br />
of the Holy Spirit in so many places.<br />
I am learning to appreciate my staff more and more. Garry Bryant and Nina<br />
Brewsaugh are ministering far beyond my expectations and I expected much from<br />
them. Thank you, Rick, David, Stacy, Hugh and Gary for a job well done. I am<br />
extremely thankful. Cristabel is such a blessing in the office and in ACTS2DAY. We<br />
recently hired Sandra Cano to replace Claudia who is getting married. Sandra is a<br />
great administrator and has a heart for the Lord. She will do well.<br />
Pray much for the two part-time people yet to be hired – INE and EVUSA. We must<br />
get the positions filled and with the right people. We must get our team complete<br />
so we can move on and so some of our team may be released from so many extra<br />
duties.<br />
Reports are coming in on new churches. Praise the Lord! May the reports flourish.<br />
New churches are being started. We are seeing this in all categories – Caucasian,<br />
Hispanic and African-American. Praise the Lord! A new Filipino District has been<br />
birthed. It shows great promise.<br />
I am excited about the possibility to assist several of our conferences –<br />
Pennsylvania, Kansas, Mid-south and Mississippi. We have begun work with the<br />
Pennsylvania Conference. The team and I have been praying for this to happen.<br />
An excellent prayer retreat has been held with Pennsylvania.<br />
It has been a joy to work with the GMC Bishops – Presiding Bishop Carpenter,<br />
Beacham and Gardner. Brother Carpenter is so supportive and encouraging.<br />
Brother Beacham and I are enjoying working with the GO Offering together. We<br />
are planning projects together with Bishop Gardner – youth, etc. The team of the<br />
GMC Bishops is moving forward together.<br />
Brother Hilliard moves the week of July 2nd. He is off to a great start. He will<br />
make a valuable member of the team.<br />
All of us here in EVUSA have had challenges with the weather. Gary, Stacy, David<br />
and I have to replace roofs due to hail damage. Many are in worse shape. We are<br />
blessed.<br />
