Let's Keep Caring!

As I write to my beloved church today it’s with great pride. I am proud of who you are and what you have done. On Monday I watched so many who dreamed a God-sized dream and watched it come to fruition. The event was the Rwanda golf tournament held at Tri-Mountain Golf Course. One thing was certain: the cause was way bigger than the event. The event was first-class. What a blessing to see all the work that went into making this day a huge success. Countless hours of visionaries who worked using their God-given talents to convince business members, the public and the golf course staff that this tournament would work. During these times, golf tournaments have struggled even to get off the ground, but this tournament was full. They had a God-sized, God-given dream and it worked beautifully. I have had so many times where I have felt great pride from my church family and this was another one. It’s been said by others “I wish our church did something like that.” I have heard that statement about Liberty Bible Church more than anywhere else. Why do people say that about our church? I think it is because every time I hear it, it is attached to the hearts of our people! Whenever people give genuinely of themselves, it impacts those around them. We do that a lot around here and I thank the Lord for that!

So are you curious to find out just how much was raised from the tournament? I just received word that $16,000 was raised. I thank the Lord; He blessed this event and us in so many ways! The human suffering that is going on in Rwanda, especially among orphaned children, is overwhelming, but together we are making a dent. Kids are being helped because God cares and He is causing us to care more and more! So let’s keep caring and I believe we will continue to see miracles!
