Finally the Notes from the Last LLc

Our next meeting is Thursday March 15th in Tekoa.

Here are some note from our last LLC meeting which took place at Park Heights Baptist in Spokane in February.

We read "Direct Hit" by Paul Borden- it spurred a fair amount of discussion on vision and prayer. Many of us came away from the meeting talking about setting up prayer teams for our church.

We also discussed some upcoming mission opportunities- Gene is meeting with Ministers from the Yakima Valley Hispanic Ministries and is hoping to partner with churches in the LLC to do a VBS and Service Mission Trip to the Yakima Valley.
Champ discussed that he has been in contact with Danile Chetti, an American Baptist missionary to Lebanon.

Bill shared with us some books that have been helpful to his life and ministry:
Art of Pastoring
Loving the Church You Lead- by David hansen
Long Wandering Prayer
The River Why
Brothers K
Peace Like a River
-I didn't get the author information on all the titles- but if you are curious, I am sure Bill can direct you to them- hey he may even loan you a copy.

"The Next Christendom" by sociologist Philip Jenkins, is a book I mentioned that has a ton of research and statistics about Christian movements in the world and compared to other religions.

Someone wanted this website: www.songsonpowerpoint.com so there you go.

As always we prayed for each other. We also prayed through the facility of the Park Heights congregation. Thanks to Pastor Ray for hosting.

We are praying for vision for our churches, for Bill's house, for Norm's eye and for our shared ministry.
