Well, as you are all aware, the men of this congregation set last Sunday as a special contribution day to enable us to send some help to our brethren in south Texas with their damage from hurricane Harvey.  We referred to last Sunday as our “double up” Sunday hoping to double our normal contribution.  The men determined to send a minimum of $1500 to be divided up between two different congregations.  Well, we did not double our contribution last Sunday Brethren!  No, instead, we nearly tripled it!  Yes, you just read correctly!  The love, concern and care this congregation showed last Lord’s Day for the Lord’s church and their brothers and sisters in Christ is nearly overwhelming.  Instead of dividing $1500 between the two congregations we will be able to send $1500 to each of them, all because of your great generosity!  What a great demonstration and example of our sermon last Sunday morning on “Do What You Can.”  It is very obvious that every family in this congregation did exactly that, you did what you could to the best of your ability!  Now we will get these funds on the way to help our brethren as soon as possible. 

Now, another thing we have coming up is our Gospel Meeting that will begin in just two and a half weeks with Allen Everett speaking for us.  We must get our meeting flyers in the mail as soon as possible.  We will be mailing flyers to all of our sister congregations here in N.E. Oklahoma and we will also be mailing flyers to all of the denominations here in Wagoner.  Starting tomorrow (Monday) we need help to get all of these in the mail.  All of the material needed (flyers, letters, envelopes and stamps) will be in the fellowship hall for anyone who can come up and put them together and mail them.  All the material will be in two separate groups—those to the congregations of the Lord’s church and those to the denominations.  If you can come and help please mark off each congregation or denomination you mail to so we will know that one has been done.  We will also have plenty of flyers available in the foyer for all of our members here to take home with you to pass out to all your family, friends and neighbors.  And, one other really big thing we all need to do,  if you have not already, begin praying every day, several times a day for our meeting.  Pray for brother Everett, his preparation and delivery of his lessons, for all of us that we will do all we can to attend ourselves and then, invite all we can, for all of our friends and neighbors that they will respond to this special opportunity to come and hear God’s word as it is preached publicly.  Remember, “Do what we can” to the best of our ability and God will take care of the rest!
​
Brethren, we have some marvelous opportunities coming up for us to use to reach out to all of our family, friends, neighbors and co-workers.  If we will “Do What We Can” we know that our God will take care of the rest! 
 
Until next week, I love you all,
                                     Dan

Proud of my fellow Christians for solid information those in need. I'm seeing this throughout the brotherhood, and have to praise HIM and am filled with joy!
