Today is the meeting with the employees at M &L. The owner has so graciously invited our pastor to present 30 minutes of gospel teaching to his interested employees at his expense plus a free lunch. Participation is optional, of course. The reception by the employees has been positive so far. I am anxious to see if the fund raiser held at the church for the employee who suffered a heart attack will have an effect on the group.
We kicked off the New Year in style with our meeting with the folks at the commons on New Year's day. I'm really looking forward to great things there this coming year and hopefully we can reach other residents who do not know Christ. The meetings, held at 5 pm every Tuesday night, is open to everyone, not just residents.
My pastor and I attended our first session of Anchor Baptist Fellowship in Greensboro. The once defunct Association began anew several months ago (this is the 3rd meeting of the revived organization) and attendance was good. There were eight or nine churches represented. Anchor Baptist Fellowship meets the first Friday night of each month and features three preachers each night. Each preacher is given 25 minutes to deliver his message. Refreshments are usually served
after the meetings. This fellowship is a great opportunity to fellowship with fellow pastors and preachers, find speakers for pulpit supply work and/or revivals and to make friendships. As time goes on, I do hope this group grows strong.
