Brother Ricky,I read about your new church building in WWM,I can see The Lord is blessing you with the growth of your church.I wish I lived closer to you and Sis.Margie Iwould be there with you.I am going to surprise you one of these days and come visit you.I would also like to go to Boyle and see Sis.JanB.I only know her through Jude2,but I just love her to death.She seems like a long time friend.

May God continue to bless you and your church family.

Bless The LORD !!!
We have put up the metal building 60' wide 80' deep with a 20 by 20 entrance cover. Completed this much so far. It will be handi-cap ready, baptistry, foyer, seating app.175. Everyone is very excited, we will start on the inside next Jan. We just had a Bake sale/ Catfish cooking/ Auction and it was great!! We raised $4000 that day. We are keeping our eyes on the LORD. Our 1st goal is to reach lost, touch hearts for JESUS! Excited about the building yes!! More excited about ministry for MY LORD JESUS. We are going to expand for HIM!

P.S. Please come when you can and stay for supper. Evening service @ 5pm. Every 1st sunday nite a local talent singing. I will buy your lunch!

Congrats on your building!!!! curious about fundraising. I know many can do so many things to raise money but where I live if you even want to sell BBQ you have to be approved by Health dept. Pass inspection, get a permit. Is it like that there or can you just set up and sell?

Hey Bro. Rick.. Wow... It still Amazes me how God is blessing at Yazoo City. I remember when I would go with Danny or it could have been Daryl when he was going to preach for a pastor before you. (Can't remember who). There were only at the most 15 there in that small city. I would not have believed that it would grow to where you are today in the 70, 80's and 90's. WOW...

And the most interesting thing is, you say you had nothing to do with that. You give the credit to God. That's awesome. Your desire to reach people in need, your passion for Chirst, and your enthuasim make a great combination. God bless you. I'm excited for you.

We are in the county, so we don't have any restrictions , permits, ect. We did the auction with very good results. We agree to advertise for donations given. Then we auction them off. We also auction garage sale items, by the lot (box) . If no one bids, we add another item, or lot untill we get a bid. People here enjoy auctions just try not to conflict with other events (ball game ect.....) It was great exposure , and fun. Any questions P. M. your # i would love to answer
