Update on Mission MyTown from Tuesday and Schedule for Wednesday

We had two groups go out today in the community. One group headed up by Cindy Sharp went to DaySpring Villa to minister through helping to clean up! We had a great group of men, women, and students go! They got a chance to be a blessing to the workers and women at the shelter and I'm sure they were blessed as well.

Today I had a divine encounter. The group going to DaySpring Villa was about to leave when a gentleman walked in and asked to speak to someone. Over the next 30-45 minutes he poured out his heart and he asked Christ into his life! What an amazing day for him and an amazing day for me. I am thankful for our new brother in Christ! I am hoping you will soon get to meet him.

Another group went to a house in Sapulpa to help some of our very own with some debris/tree removal! It was a great time! We removed quite a bit of debris which was quite a relief to the homeowners--what an incredible opportunity to give back to this couple who has given so much!We will be headed back to 609 S. Poplar in Sapulpa on Saturday at 8:30 a.m. till we get it finished!

What in incredible day! If you have not gotten a chance to be a part of Mission MyTown maybe you have had an opportunity to see God at work at your workplace. If you have a story either through Mission MyTown or your workplace, please email them to me at mike.lehew@ridgewaybaptist.com

We are in the process of getting stories from each of the days happenings and we will post them here as they come in.

Wednesdays Schedule:
For those that can, please meet us at 3 p.m. to get things rollin' for the cookout--cutting tomatoes, lettuce, onions, making koolaid, tea and water. We will head to Shannon Valley at 4 p.m. to begin setting up. We will need help making sure that the grounds are kept clean during the cookout as well.
Please park just east of the community--you will see the church van or bus along with John Williams white van. James Purcell is leading the charge in grilling the brisket and burgers.
