Lebanon Baptist Church in Roswell, Georgia was our next stop for Sunday, January 22, 2012. For Sunday School in the teen class, the teens and I studied one of the Sons of Proverbs. Then, for the morning service, I preached from the book of John and seven adults raised their hand asking for prayer as they seek to reach a friend for Christ. Sunday night was a whole church fellowship with a potato bar and chili. We had great fellowship with Pastor Paul Mann because of his history of ministering in Iowa and being a board member of Faith Baptist Bible College in Ankeny, Iowa. Please pray that this church will take us on for support in the near future.
Lebanon Baptist Church has a long history and was established in 1836. During the Civil War, the invading Union Army tore down Lebanon Baptist Church and used the wood to build a bridge across a river. In the church office they still have a wooden slave bench from the original building. Please pray for this church as they continue to reach this growing, affluent community for the Savior.
