The New Year starts tomorrow and I wonder if I have done everything that God wanted me to in 2006. I know what I personally want to accomplish in 2007. I will share a couple of things with you:

1. I want to read all of the Bible readings for the year. Sometimes I get busy studying for messages that I don’t get the daily reading done.

2. I want to reach more souls for Christ. I want to reach the lost no matter what the cost.

3. I want to do more for missions in 2007. We give 10% of everything that comes in to missions.

4. I will be praying for you.

Thanks to all who helped buy and fill the bags for the inmates at Morgan County Jail. A lot of inmates were really blessed because of the Christmas gifts from you.

You who helped in so many ways last year are really appreciated. What ever you do you are doing for the Lord and He will bless you. However, If I forget to say Thank You please forgive me. I praise God often for every worker in the Church.
