MAY 2013 - Assemblies of the Lord Jesus Christ

BOOTS ON THE GROUNDBlairsville, Georgia – Pastor Barry DotsonGod has worked a miracle for The Rock! We havebeen cramped for space to serve our young people forsome time now, but in one month, $5,000 was raisedto rent an additional space in the shopping complexwhere the church is located. The building owners loweredthe rent to this amount. The Rock now has paidfor space for a youth center for the next 12 months.This gives us two additional classrooms, a children’schurch, fellowship hall, classroom and a kitchen.Zanesville, Ohio – Pastor Kevin HopkinsThe presence of God has been in our servicesso wonderfully this past month. There is definitelya climate change in our church. Our worship hasbeen sustained and there is a lingering presence ofthe Lord. We have been focusing on this in order toproduce healthy babies when they are born. God hasbeen opening doors for us through the boy’s home thatwe have been working with. We have purchased somesupplies to paint rooms and give our time in helpingthese young men at the facility they live in. Godcontinues to bless as there are now some employees,from the boy’s home, who want a Bible study. We alsohad the privilege of baptizing one employee in Jesus’name that attended a service with the boys.Livingston, Louisiana – Pastor Dean WalsworthWe have had seven Bible studies this month. In aSunday morning service, a man in a wheelchair beganto quietly worship. Toward the end of the service, hesaid to his wife, “Something’s happening, and I don’tknow what it is!” She began to listen and realized hewas speaking in other tongues. As we prayed with him,he opened up to a beautiful, outflowing experience.Coal City, Illinois – Pastor Ida NelsonGod continues to bless Turning Point ApostolicChurch as we seek His face for revival and souls.Cynthiana, Indiana – Pastor James MullinsWe have had a steady flow of first time guests.
