Bethel Family,
Good Wednesday everyone. This month: On a soon approaching Lord’s Day, May 24th, we will be so blessed to be joined by Andy Pugh in our pulpit. Andy will also bring his wife Leanne and their two daughters to Bethel. Andy and I met recently, and the Lord gave us an immediate connection in faith and friendship, and even more so in Kingdom work. Andy is the Men’s Ministry Pastor and Leanne is the Children’s Minister at First Baptist Church in Elba, Alabama. In Elba, day-to-day, Andy and Leanne own and operate a Southern Tractor franchise. But moment-by-moment Andy works for our Lord and Saviour. Andy has a personal testimony not only of the impact of men’s ministry at First Baptist, but in the impact Jesus has over his life. On May 24th, come and hear Andy. I am looking forward to Andy teaching me. I believe after speaking with Andy, Bethel Baptist has something to learn from Andy. Every one of us knows someone and knows a family who needs to learn from Andy. Bethel, please hear your pastor’s heart: I did not find Andy nor did Andy did not find me. This was not a chance encounter but a divine appointment. Our Heavenly Father put Andy and I together so we could hear God speak a specific message to all of us on May 24th. Don’t miss what God is doing, don’t miss what God wants to say to you, and don’t miss what we can learn together. Even more important, don’t let someone you love miss what God wants to tell them. The men and women of Bethel Baptist need to BE more in God’s Kingdom on earth. You will miss a blessing if you miss Andy Pugh on Sunday, May 24th. Be present with us. Bring someone with you. And invite a family to join ours on this Lord’s Day – May 24th.
In Christ Jesus,
Pastor Michael
