Lebanon Road Report: July 20

I’m sorry this is a couple of days late, but I’ve been enjoying myself at camp since Sunday afternoon. (Pictures below) We have a lot of people at Valley View camp, as this is Lebanon Road’s week. Every adult volunteer is from Lebanon Road, and they are counseling, teaching classes, cooking, helping with facilities, etc. It is great to see so many helping with this great program.

And it is paying off! We just got word that Jakobe Reed was baptized last night, and Courtney Roberts asked for prayers. What great news to pass along! Wonderful things are happening at camp this week.

Those responses follow a response Sunday morning at the conclusion of the lesson. Pam Dunaway responded to the Lord’s invitation. She is a member of the Lebanon Road congregation, but said that she had not been allowing Jesus to truly be the Lord of her life, and she wanted to be forgiven and strengthened. What a wonderful response.

It was such a wonderful day at Lebanon Road. Our attendance, admittedly, was “aided” by several visitors from out-of-town, but that’s exciting, too! We enjoy meeting folks who are visiting Nashville, and it is an honor that they come to worship God with us.

All told, there were (are you ready for this?) 398 in worship Sunday morning!!! That’s a number that jumps off the page at me. It makes me happy, but also motivates me to do the best I can. Please pray that we continue to push toward the goal our elders have set of averaging 380 by the end of the year!

As we always say, if you are in or near Nashville, pay us a visit. You’ll be glad you did!

Here are some camp pictures (sorry they are a little blurry).
