In Charlotte, we are experiencing a drought.  Last night’s Celebration seemed symbolic of the natural, more challenging, and seemingly “dry” considering the spiritual climate.  I have learned that we must persevere through these times.  As “atmosphere” seems to be ever changing, God’s heart remains the same.  His love is evident, desirous for each and every one of us to accept the gift of His precious Son, Jesus.

Our Guest, Neil Prem-from England gave an inspiring word-the residents were edified. Thank you, Neil. I want to express my special thanks to my precious team members, thank you for the gift of your time, talents, strengths but mostly your love. 

Let us praise Him as the beloved listed below have expressed their need for Jesus as Savior and Lord.
