Greetings Pastors and Spouses, Prayer Partners and Friends,
The past two weeks that we have been here in Florida have flown by so fast as we have been busy settling in. After being gone for 8 months; in addition to the regular ministry things and office work, we've been busy spending time trimming trees, raking leaves, cleaning gutters, cleaning pavers, cleaning inside the cottage, etc., etc.
Now let me tell you where we ministered last weekend and what God did.
MULBERRY, FL - This past Saturday and Sunday, Beth and I ministered at Willow Oak Assembly of God in Mulberry, FL (located about 15 miles northeast of our home base in Plant City, FL); pastored by Dr. Scott and Kim Pfingston. This was our fourth time to minister at Willow Oak. On Saturday morning we taught a seminar on Prayer and Fasting which served as a kickoff to their two weeks of prayer and fasting which will be starting on January 20th. It was a great time together. The people were engaged throughout the seminar, taking notes, asking great questions and making great comments. On Sunday morning our message dealt with the theme of "how preparation precedes revival". Revival doesn't "just happen". There are things God does and there are things we must do and when those things come together, revival comes. At the end of the service people, several responded to the first altar call to either commit their life to Christ, recommit their life to Christ or to make things right with God. After the second altar call, people filled the altar, hungry for God and hungry for revival. It was a great service with a great group of people. A wonderful weekend. Thank you for praying. You had a part in all this!
MOUNT DORA, FL - This coming Sunday, Beth and I will be ministering at Bethel Assembly of God in Mount Dora, FL (located 45 minutes northwest of Orlando, FL); pastored by Charles Walker, Jr. This will our first time to minister at Bethel and we've been asked to minister on the Holy Spirit. Please join us in praying that God will pour out His Holy Spirit. We need Him again this week!
ANNUAL 21-DAY BEGINNING OF THE YEAR PRAYER AND FASTING - Each year thousands if not millions of believers join together and begin the year with a fast. People can fast how they want to fast, how long they fast, etc. Some do a normal fast (miss a meal or meals and spend that time in prayer). Others do a Daniel Fast (abstain from eating certain foods and spend extra time in prayer). Still others do a John Wesley Fast (eat no food until 3:00 P.M. and spend the breakfast and lunch time in prayer). Still others who cannot fast food because of medical reasons, they fast Facebook, the news, etc. and spend extra time in prayer. It's all between the individual, and God, if and how they participate. Our fast started on Friday, January 3rd and will end on Thursday, January 23rd. If you have anything you would want us to pray about during the fast, please feel free to email us and let us know. We will gladly privately be praying for your need. Each week we ask you to pray for us, this is an ideal opportunity for you to ask us to pray for your need.

INFO AFTER CLOSING THOUGHTS - At the very end of the emailing please read the paragraphs about - MINISTRY CAR FUNDRAISER, BILL'S BOOKS, and FACEBOOK.
​
CLOSING THOUGHTS - I came across this article a while back that has some important truths to remember not only at the beginning of a new year but always. Three truths about how much each of us matter to God. (1) No matter who you are, Jesus notices you. God knows who you are, and He's paying attention to how you are serving Him. No one else may know or notice but He does. Jesus said, "God never overlooks a single sparrow. And He pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail - even numbering the hairs on your head!" (Luke 12:6-7 MSG). (2) No matter who ignores you, Jesus knows you. Jesus knows and hears you. To Him you are unforgettable. A mother won't ignore her nursing child. Neither will God forget about you, no matter how forgotten you feel some days. The God of the universe has your name written on His palms. God said, "...I would not forget you! See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands" (Isaiah 49:15-16 NTL). (3) No matter what you have done, Jesus wants you. Jesus is interested in changing you, not condemning you. Jesus knows everything you have ever done, and He still loves you. John 3:17 says, "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him" (NIV). Remember: You matter to God!
Remember to pray for our time of ministry in Mount Dora, FL this Sunday and continue to pray for the people in California suffering from the fires and the people in North Carolina still suffering from the effects of the hurricane a couple of months ago.
Thank you so much for being our partners in ministry!

Together in His Service with You,
Bill & Beth
