September Update

Dear Friends of Mission Surge,

I wanted to ask you guys to be in prayer for me concerning 4 things.

1.  Please pray for me as I will be preaching at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church in Quitman, MS this Sunday, September 18 through Wednesday September 21.  Please, as I come to mind, pray for me that I would preach with grace and power, with anointing and compassion, and with unction and love.  Pray that the people of Pleasant Hill will have ears to hear, eyes to see, minds to understand, and wills to respond to what they hear.  Pray for an awakening and for revival.  Please pray!

2.  Please pray for our upcoming training in the Dominican Republic October 7-9.  We will be training approximately 40 church planters and pastors in the Dominican, videoing the sessions, burning them onto DVD’s and challenging the pastors to take the training back to their communities, cities, and churches.  The topic of this training is prayer.  We would greatly appreciate your prayers for this.  Gene Pickern, Ken Holm, Andy Dusenberry, and myself will serve as the team.

3.  Please pray that the mounds of paperwork to obtain approval as a non-profit organization will be complete soon.  A CPA in our church (Renee Holm) has graciously agreed to help me wade through it all and the end is finally in sight!  Pray that we will get it complete and get it approved as soon as possible.

4.  Please pray for our men’s conference November 11 and 12!  Part of Mission Surge’s mission is to impact families with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  The catalyst to impacting the family is the father.  Dr. Voddie Baucham is coming to challenge men to be the Christians, husbands, fathers, and church members that they should be.  If you have ever heard Dr. Baucham, you know that this is going to be one challenging and valuable weekend.  The conference is going to be held at Cleary Baptist Church.  Please pray that there will be a large number of men register and that God would work in their lives in a mighty way through Dr. Baucham’s teaching.  Please spread the word to all of the men you know!  You can learn more and register at http://clearybaptist.org/Vodde_Baucham_Man_Up

Thank you so much for your prayers.  It is my hope that as you receive these updates that you do pray for us.  Without God hearing and answering prayer, we are hopeless and hopeless.  He is our source.  He is our strength. He is our hope and help.  Please pray! And please pass this update along to those that you know who may pray for our work!

In Christ,

Kevin
