What a wonderful day on yesterday. We passed two inspections on the building. I have the fire alarm inspection this morning at 6:30. I will go today and get an occupancy permit for the building. Praise God for how He has helped and guided us through this very tense time. To God be all the Glory!

Today we will be finishing up a bunch of little things that the fire marshal ask me to do. We will be busy all day with that.

Tonight is soul-winning. I can't wait to see what God is going to do when we go out tonight. We have 100 more chairs in our auditorium to fill. We now have seating for over 200. It's exciting but also sobering to see so many chairs not filled. Let's go soul-winning and fill them up!

School orientation is tomorrow night. School starts bright and early on Monday! Wow has this been an exciting three months!

What a powerful service we had last night. The Man of God preached about Jacob leaving Bethel the House of God. Many people got their hearts right with God. The Lord stirred my heart. I am so grateful for a good two nights of meeting.

Yesterday I finished up the bathroom stalls. I also installed a lot of little things. Our water test came back o.k. Today their will be more inspections and possibly go for the final inspections and try to get our occupancy permit. Pray! We are so close. Please keep praying about the finances of all of this. God knows!

A desire accomplished is sweet to the soul. This desire is just about accomplished and it is sweet to the soul. Praise the Lord for how He has helped us through this.

Just think what this man, the Lord Jesus Christ has done for you. Blessed be the Name of the Lord for His blessings on me. I'm so glad I'm saved and washed in the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. I'm glad I have eternal security in Him. Well Glory to God.

The building site was a buzz yesterday with a bunch of little things getting done. Thanks be to the Lord for all that was accomplished. I worked most of the day on bathroom stalls. I should get them finished today. I also hung up all the soap dispensers, towel holders and other little things. My wife was a blessing by putting up all the curtains and mirrors in the whole building. She's a blessing!

This morning is a big morning as we are waiting word at 8 a.m. for the water test. If that passes the sprinkler goes together and we test it and are well on our way. We are looking for an occupancy tomorrow and starting school on Thursday if we get the word today. Please pray!

Also the funeral was a blessing yesterday. I was given the privilege of sharing hope with the hopeless. May God do a work in those peoples lives. If your saved today thank God for it and bless His Name. So many people need the Lord!

The revival services was a huge blessing last night. The choir and ensemble sang wonderful. The message by Bro. Carlson was very good. I'm excited about what God is going to do tonight! See you there at 7?

What a powerful day we had on yesterday. God moved in our services. Last night was a special service as the Brethren started to testify and it just went on and on. I gave an invitation and it went on and on. The spirit of revival was there on yesterday. How thrilling that is to us as we think about our revival services tonight with Pastor Carlson. I so much appreciate the Spirit of God moving in our meetings on yesterday. I took six other ladies with me yesterday afternoon to Jackman. We had a tremendous service there. I thank God for this mission and all God is doing in that town.

Today I'm working and also taking part in a funeral. I'm expecting a powerful day. We are almost finished with the building. Were still praying hard that we get the finances for it all and our inspections pass. Lord willing we start school this Thursday. Keep praying.

What a joy to serve.

Well it took me all day but the doors got hung yesterday. They are very heavy commercial doors. We also had to cut several of them down so we would hang them and then take them off and hang them up again. Praise God it got finished. Today we put closures on them and panic hardware. Also today I will be working on the kitchen serving area. The floor in the fellowship hall is in and it's beautiful and durable. Most of the toilets are in. The boiler is being fired today. The sprinkler system is just about finished. With delays with inspections it will be sometime next week before we occupy the building. Praise God for what He is doing! Well Glory!

We had a tremendous day yesterday. The crowds were great and the Spirit of God moved in power and great glory on our meetings. Thank the Lord for liberty to preach the eternal Word of God. I appreciate the Lord's mercies in traveling to Jackman and back. I had a tail wind both ways.

This week is the final push to get the building finished. It's exciting to see it coming together. We will be doing a whole bunch of little things this week to tidy it all up. Little things take a lot of time but I'm confident that this week it will come together.

We are meeting at 7 this week for prayer to ask God for a miracle that the building would not only be finished but also the finances of it all would come in. Glory to God and Lamb for what He is going to do in advance!

We all had a great day yesterday. We started at 6:30 at the church working feverishly to get it cleaned up. After that we helped Ron with the heat. Also the whole pod was moved up to the second and third floors. It's getting close! Glory! In the afternoon the front was formed up and will be poured today. The suspended ceiling started getting installed. Thank you Mike! The lights are working all over the building now. That place was a buzz yesterday.

Last night we went down to the church planters conference in Londonderry. God blessed and moved. What a blessing also to hear stirring testimonies and great messages from Bro. Wiley and Bro. Jenkins. God was gracious to help me to preach the message He had laid on my heart. Glory to God for Bro. Cal Fuller and his vision that he has for New England. God is moving and stirring in this part of the world. Amen and Hallelujah!!!

Today I'm working this morning at the church and then flying down for the conference in Southington Ct. I can't wait to see what God is going to do in the meeting! Pray for the preachers that preach and for traveling mercies for our whole family.

My wife told me last night before we went to sleep, "Todd, the older we get the harder we work." (smile) It's so much fun though! Yesterday we were going to paint but the work got post poned due to the sheet rockers so today is painting day. We worked all day putting up the mop boards on the second floor. We finished around 8 last night. Also the carpet in the sanctuary is finished. It's nice! Also finished yesterday all the window treatments for the first floor, both doors trimmed out and most of it masked and ready to paint. The chimney is almost finished. Praise the Lord for how He has helped us. Please continue to pray for the finances of all of this. I know I ask you to do this daily but we are trusting the Lord to bring it all in.

Today as I said is painting day. After that I will be putting down mop boards on the third floor. I can't wait to see it all finished.

I remember very well this day 10 years ago. We are fighting against evil terrorists that hate our guts. Oh well we win! "For me to live is Christ to die is gain"

What a wonderful day of ministry I had on yesterday. I flew up to Jackman and spent the morning fellowshipping with the Easterbrooks and soul winning. I had wonderful contacts and got to give out literature to all. While we were busy there our teams of soul winners were busy down in Sanford going door to door. What an exciting thing to see teams all over Maine out winning people to the Lord. Praise God for what He is doing in these missions. I then flew over to Greenville to the international fly-in for float planes. I loved every minute of that. I flew home in the evening and ate with the Pease family. Praise the Lord for good fellowship with them.

Today is church all day and I can't wait to see what God is going to do. Please pray for power and liberty to preach the eternal Word of God! I will preach in the morning in Sanford, afternoon, in Jackman, and then evening in Sanford. What a joy to serve the LORD!!

Please pray for the finances of our new building. God knows.

Also pray for souls to be saved! We are having wonderful services with full attendance but it's been quite a while since someone walked the aisle and got Born Again. Let's pray we can see that on Sunday and even today as I'm out soul winning.
