"LAY IT ON US, LORD!"
This is what Clint prayed Thursday Morning under the Tent! Clint and his Girlfried, Lacy have just gotten right with The Lord, and they are growing by leaps and bounds!
An Uncle under a burden for his family went over to their house to witness to who ever was there. The Brother did not receive the witness at all, but there was Lacy, 17 years old sitting there knowing The Lord's tug on her heart. She and Clint came to Church on a Sunday, just one week before Tent Revival! They heard old time Bible preaching from Pastor Matheson and they were addicted!! They have both come every night to the meeting. Clint had two days off because of Weather and came during the Morning services, and even out Soul winning, Visitation.
This is only two testimonies! There have been teen girls and teen boys who have testified of getting right with The Lord!
One teen girl told me she had just closed her MYspace.com account AND her Facebook account! She saw the insidious sin and wanted OUT!
A young Elementary Girl surrendered to be a Missionary!
Another Young Girl had been taking notes all week of the Preaching and went to school witnessing. One of her friends trusted Christ for Salvation!!
Neighbors are coming out to the Tent.
Adults are moving closer to The Lord.
I tell you, what a wonderful moving of The Holy Ghost!
My Family and I will be packed and ready to move out tonight after the last service. We have a 14 hour trip to make up to Elkton, VA. Please pray for Traveling Grace and Mercy.

The Rain pushed us into the Church Tonight!
The Tent Revival has been wonderful, thus far. A LOT of excellent testimonies of God working in people's lives!
Lacy is a young 17 year old who joined the Church Sunday Night! She and her boyfriend, Clint, are growing in The Lord so fast!! Already, they are convicted of telling each other that they "love each other". Clint showed up early this Morning to help in Soul winning and Visitation, as well as hear the Preaching under the Tent.
Clint asked me tonight, "How do you know if The Lord is calling you to PREACH?"
Thank you for your prayers!

We have arrived here in the Western section of Tennessee from Maryland. The Camp meeting began this Morning with Rudy Pennington bringing the first message and myself preaching the second. Tonight, Jeremy Ragland preached the evening service. There was excellent response today and tonight at the altar, with a young lady wishing to join the Church tonight!!!! There will be morning services and evening services. Two - Three Preachers in each service. If you are in the surrounding area, you should come on out and be in services!
