5:37 PM Here are the few websites related to our trip to Maine. We’re ministering this week at Living Waters Bible Conference in Danforth, Maine. Our good friends Billy and Paul Speer along with their son BJ are leading the music. We’re staying at the First Settler’s Lodge because the camp is full. 2:53 PM A cold front has …
4:29 PM This note is late in coming because it took me a long time to figure out how to establish an Internet connection. We’re staying at the First Settler’s Lodge on a hill overlooking the “Million-Dollar View” in Weston, Maine, about a mile from Living Waters Bible Camp. We’re at the lodge because the camp is jammed …
8:38 AM Brian Bill preaches in all four services at Calvary today. When I am on the road, I like to follow the four services in my mind and pray for the services as the morning rolls along… Don’t forget to pray for the Allied Force team in Costa Rica today … Also, Greg and Carolyn Kirschner and their four chil…
5:48 AM This morning we begin our journey to Maine. We will cross Lake Champlain, drive to Burlington, Vermont, then head east on Route 2 into New Hampshire, we’ll pass through the White Mountains, ending up in Bangor late this afternoon. Tomorrow we’ll drive on Danforth and Living Waters Bible Camp. We’ve never spent any t…
3:56 PM We’re down the last few hours of our week at Word of Life. Right now Marlene is at the coin-operated laundry washing our clothes. I preached twice this AM and was deeply moved by the spontaneous response of the congregation both times. George Theis told me months ago that people are hungry to hear about the importan…
10:17 PM Just back from Word of Life Island. Around 600 teens and counselors crowded into Pine Pavilion for the service—which was loud and raucous, high-energy, incredibly exciting. Scott Foreman, Mike Laymon and Larry Bollback did a super job of keeping order amid the noise, cheers, clapping, singing, swaying, laught…
9:08 AM Getting ready for the two AM services. Rain seems to have stopped. Marlene told me she has read four books so far and is now reading through “The Zion Legacy,” a series by Brock and Bodie Thoene. Breakfast for me this AM was a Payday candy bar and half a Hershey’s chocolate bar. That’s all I need till lunch. 6:5…
10:00 PM Before I forget, here’s the Legacy Campaign prayer request for today: “Pray for the safety of the work crews during construction.” Brian Bill, pastor of Pontiac Bible Church, will be our guest preacher this Sunday. Brian and Beth attended Calvary during their student days at Moody and Brian later joined the st…
3:48 PM Had two very good services this AM. The crowd at the Inn listened very intently as I spoke. The Campground (as the name implies) is a much more informal setting—outdoor, open-air tabernacle, lots of families, sort of a cross between a county fair and a tent revival. During the school year Wayne Lewis is the As…
11:57 AM Just back from speaking twice to the summer staff. At the first meeting, I think everyone was pretty sleepy—long weekend for most of the students. The Antichrist is a tough topic when you are sleepy. Much different on the Island. We rode over on a speedboat—I loved it and Marlene grinned and held on to …
