My Dear Friend of Radio Missions:
The Dedication Day of our new facilities and this year's Spring Fellowship Weekend has come and gone and people are
still talking about what a gracious time it was in the Lord!
Our folks began arriving early in the week and on Friday we enjoyed fried fish with all the "trimmings" and a time of
prayer and fellowship. Then, on Saturday, the day began with choir rehearsal. What a blessing it was to see the choir
loft overflowing and hear the old songs sung once again! At Noon we enjoyed lunch and then shared testimonies with each
other of how the Lord has blessed us. In the afternoon, it was time for another choir rehearsal that turned into a
time of singing for everyone!
On Sunday the day dawned with us listening to a "Voice of Truth Broadcast" on the radio and then the Dedication
Service began with an overflow crowd in the new Chapel. We were joined by Radio Station Managers from across the
Country ... some from as far as San Francisco, California ... and it was our honor to welcome friends and family from
all over. After a gracious time of baptism the day ended with us sharing lunch and fellowship.
Many of our people have told me they believe this Fellowship Day was the best in recent memory. Many good reports
have been received. And, the Lord went before us as the Truth was preached.
I want to thank each person who had a part in preparing for this year's Spring Fellowship ... from those who toiled endless
hours to prepare the new Chapel and facilities to those who sang in the choir and those who prepared food. And, I want to
thank each of our Church members for the surprise gift of the clock that is displayed in the foyer of the Chapel. As I
said on Saturday, the clock will be a constant reminder it is time to be about our Father's business because time is short.
The Lord has given us an opportunity to start over with state-of-the-art facilities to get the Gospel out in a greater way.
You pray for us as we work each day to send out the Truth. And remember, it is your prayerful financial support that
makes possible Radio Missions.
Your Gospel Preacher,
Pastor Pendarvis
