At Victory Baptist in Eustis, FL, Dr. Ashley approaches the milestone of 40 years in the ministry. Faithfully he has served this congregation for 1/2 of those years. An English-speaking Jamaican man professed Christ Sunday, then God moved in powerfully Tuesday night as many hearts sought guidance from the Lord and forgiveness for sins. These [...]
We, …I, got in the wrong lane coming off the Rt. 60 bridge west of Tampa and couldn’t get over in the jam up of traffic hitting the 1-275 ramp. We went straight through Tampa. Stop. Go. Turn right. “That was a curb!” Turn left. Stop. Sometimes in the midst of the skyscrapers, the shade [...]
We met our Pastor and my uncle, Paul Alexander, his wife and 10 prospective students (including my cousin) from our church in Alabama at Clearwater Christian College on Thursday. We were treated with great kindness as we toured the beautiful campus, chatted with President Stratton and some of the professors and visited some classes. As [...]
Randy was ordained to the Gospel Ministry February 24th, 1985 at Bethel Baptist Church in Savannah, OH. Randy started preaching as a teenager and served a summer internship in Ohio in 1982. While a student at Bob Jones University he was called to preach in January, 1983 after Dr. Bob Wood preached on 1 Timothy [...]
Two brake magnets wore out again on our fifth wheel trailer creating incredible jerking when stopping. After ordering and securing the parts…from TX (!), Marc and I ripped the wheels apart, replaced the magnets, regreased the bearings, reassembled the wheels (I almost lost my “sanctimoniousness” over the crazy little plastic clip the wires tuck into [...]
Music, messages, ministers and meals at Fort Cooper Baptist. All mmmm-good! Marc taught a great lesson in Jr. Church along with a contact juggling lesson. The teens prepared a fancy display of sweet treats following the PM service so adult couples on Valentine’s Day could enjoy each other and sponsor some youth ministry projects. Beautifully [...]
What a great meeting we had at Calvary in Sebring. Among other blessings, sins confessed and friendships built, Monday night a 46 year old man came to the service invited by a friend. Tuesday night he returned. Wednesday, as requested, Pastor Osbeck and I went to visit him. The Holy Spirit had already done the [...]
Miranda shattered her wrist and had 9 screws and a plate surgically inserted on 12/1/09. Praise the Lord that she has regained the ability to grip in her left hand! Originally she could squeeze 4 lbs. and she can now squeeze 20 lbs. Rotation is the big issue as the scar tissue has tightened making [...]
Dr. Ron Merrill has completed his therapy sessions and has been released from scheduled care. He can’t wait a moment longer to get back in the ministry. He and Donna are headed 629 miles to Florida to join Randy and the Team. Though Ron will not be up to preaching or intensive ministry, he wants [...]
My early AM walk today led me next to a canal on a dike south of Lake Ockeechobee. When I saw this road which led to infinity only one word came to my mind — ETERNITY. I’m so thankful mine will be spent with Christ because I accepted His payment for my sin on the [...]
Saturday the Port Salerno First Baptist folks cooked up an unforgettable fish fry! Sunday we had a wonderful time preaching, playing, singing and encouraging the folks. Pastor Joe loves missions. Under his leadership the church has given thousands to missions, built churches and sponsored missionaries in several South American cities as well as some American [...]
130 attentive students of the excellent Barnabas Christian Academy joined us on Monday. This is a ministry of Port St. Lucie Bible Church to the next generation. BCA’s dedicated staff have a heart for their students which shows clearly. My nephew, Jerrill Wyler, who traveled on our team with his family for 12 years, is [...]
