Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow

We're WAY behind on our posting, but wanted to report some huge praise reports! God is so good!

1. We had a baptism!! God has been moving in this young man's life and he surrendered his life to Jesus. Praise God, Hallelujah!! We went to the lake and he was immersed in the moon light. What a beautiful sight!

2. The King of Kings Ministry congregation continues to lift the youth ministry in prayer and we're thankful for these prayer warriors. We're thankful for the saints God has sent to support us.

3. We were blessed by the gifts of new microphones and mic stands. A wonderful woman saw our needs and supplied exactly what was needed. Our hope is in the Lord, and He cares for each and every need. Thank you Jesus!

The Lord is the Everlasting God

"Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
The Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and His understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings of eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40:29-31

What an awesome verse and promise from God! We had youth group on Friday night. The prayers being lifted for the group are being felt and we appreciate each of you remembering the ministry in your prayers. The band played and the praise and worship was great. Debbie played bass this week, Jason on drums, Seth on drums & Caleb playing guitar. The lesson this week was on being a Christian, truely living for Him, not being a "counterfit" Christian. Being on the fence is the most miserable place to be- we need to make a choice to follow Christ or the world. After the lesson, we had snacks and the band played.

On Friday, April 19 we will have our regular service then have movie night after.

Give Us Clean Hands, Give Us Pure Hearts

"Give us clean hands,
Give us pure hearts,
Let us not lift our souls to another.
And God let us be
A generation that's free,
That seeks your face,
Oh, God of Jacob.."

We had a long praise and worship service last Friday night, then the kids went to Pizza Hut for a Bible study and outreach. They spent more than 2 hours there and were able to visit and witness to their waitress and her friends. The primary goal of the ministry is to reach the lost and show them the love of Jesus. The kids are busy taking every oppertunity God gives them to reach their generation so that all may be free in Jesus.

Blessed Be The Name of The Lord

"Blessed be the name of the Lord,
Blessed be Your name- JESUS,
Blessed be the name of the Lord,
Blessed be Your glorious name!"

Youth group last night was awesome! Mike came and played bass and the praise and worship service was amazing. It was such a joy to see everyone enjoying singing and praising Jesus! After the song service, Caleb did the lesson on the Crucifixion of Jesus. The kids ate snacks, then the band played for another hour or so. It was a great time to hang out. Seth was the guest drummer for a few songs. Great job, Seth! Enjoy all the pics, but just a disclaimer- they are out of order due to some technical difficulties:)

*Update on Ruth* Last night, Gordy said that Ruth had been moved to the Moberly hospital and would be staying another night. She was still having seizures and the doctors couldn't find the reason. Please pray for wisdom for the doctors and that the seizures would stop.

Prayer Request

Please pray for Ruth, one of the ladies in the church. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital last night after services. She is a wonderful Christian woman and has been so supportive of the boys ministry. We pray she heals quickly.

Seek First His Kingdom and His Righteousness

"But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself..." Matthew 6:33-34

The boys have some needs for the youth group and God is taking care of those needs, more than we ever dreamed. They started the day by asking... and ended the day by recieving abundantly! They have leaders stepping up to help, individuals loaning band equipment and will be getting help this week to put the words to their songs up using the computer. Isn't God amazing?

Last night was the second night of youth group. Emilee was sick, so I stayed home with the little kids while Jon went with the boys. Sorry, no pictures this week! But, Jon said the band sounded great, the devotion was great and most of all- kids are excited about Jesus! Caleb had messages last night that kids are inviting their friends like crazy and the fire is spreading.

Praise the Lord

Praise the Lord.
Praise God in His sanctuary;
praise Him in His mighty heavens.
Praise Him for His mighty acts of power;
praise Him for His surpassing greatness.
Praise Him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise Him with the harp and lyre,
praise Him with tambourine and dancing,
praise Him with the strings and flute,
praise Him with the clash of cymbals,
praise Him with the resounding cymbals.
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
Psalm 150:1-6

Last night was the first night of the Hidden Light youth group and it was awesome! They started with the band playing some favorites like "Days of Elijah" and then some new songs Caleb and Jason have been working on this week. After the band, Caleb did the devotion on heaven and how God has made a room for each of us and He wants nothing more than for us to be with Him for eternity in heaven. All God is asking for in return is for us to give ourselves to Him. After the devotion, we had snacks and the kids had time to just hang out. God is moving and has already blessed the ministry beyond words. Praise the Lord!
