Lori, Gene, Geraldine

I have met three miracles since being pastor of FBC for four days. There is Lori, Gene and Geraldine. Each one has a story of the grace, mercy and healing of God in their lives. They all have an outlook on life that can only come from being at the edge of eternity. They are happy, motivated and at home with themselves. They are helping others by their attitude of gratitude.

Lori told me that I was coming to a great church. She told of the care given to her by the people here at FBC. She wanted me to know the nature of this place. She is convinced of the power of God and the grace of his people at work here.

Gene was saved from a past that one would say was disfunctional at best. She is a trophy of the way God can save from the "guttermost" to the "uttermost."

Then there is Geraldine. She has fought many illnesses and been at the point of death each time. However, God raised her up so she could lead our group to Branson this year and I hope next year as well.

I cannot wait to hear the story of others at FBC. The ministry of the church is always about people. People and the Kingdom are all that matter.
