• Special Announcement– Our God is Great! PORTLAND CHRISTIAN SCHOOL-Louisville, KY —

From  Jodell Seay: Administrator:  “I want to share this with you so that we all may celebrate in God’s provision! It is with great gratitude to the Lord and incredible excitement I share this with you as we continue to prayerfully look forward to the next steps of preparation for His work to be accomplished at PCS.

Friends, We just returned from the closing transaction on the sale of the church building and parking lot on Taylorsville Road! We deposited the proceeds from the sale in our account with Republic Bank. Since the proceeds exceed the total we owe, Portland Christian School is essentially DEBT FREE by the abundant provision of our Great God!!

Further the building is to continue to be used for ministry by a young, vibrant congregation which will be celebrating their 2nd anniversary as a new church on Sunday.

What a blessing to them and us!!  Please pause and give thanks to the Lord Jesus.

Senior  Citizen’s Week (Woodland Bible Camp) Speaking on behalf of myself and Adele, we  thoroughly enjoyed last week’s change of pace as senior citizens at Woodland Bible Camp.    This was our first time since we’ve never felt old enough to attend.  But thanks to the “old timers” present, we were both made to feel right at home.    We got to experience and were reminded of life without TV, computers, and radio.  Cabins with no bathrooms, no mirrors, no heat, and simple bunk beds gave us a greater appreciation of our home.  However, the fellowship made up for the lack of amenities.  It was great to join in with others of like precious faith for seasons of singing, testimonies, praying, and lessons from God’s Word.  Our daily exercise was the walks to the bathhouse and raising our forks to feed our face.  We were especially blessed to have Bro. & Sis. Robert Garrett with us as well as Bro. Bob Morrow who are among the missionaries listed in our Prayer / Praise Booklet.  Our thanks to each devotion leader, chapel speaker, song leader, night speaker, cook,  Shiloh ladies, shuttle cart driver, and those who provided entertainment each night.

REUNION AT WOODLAND (Reunion at Woodland Flyer) coming this fall, October 7, 8, and 9th. We literally have hundreds of people we need to get the word out to. We are praying that it will be one of the most life changing weekends ever spent at Woodland Bible Camp. We hope to have a little something for everyone, but the focus will be about strengthening our relationship with God and strengthening relationships within our own families. Come one, come all! In one sense, our “target” group is anyone who will not be attending Senior Citizens Week and those who will not be attending the JR/SR High Retreat the last weekend of September…….BUT OF COURSE EVERYONE IS INVITED AND ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND. Let us know if you will help spread the word and pray. Please pray that God would touch people and draw their hearts back to Woodland, to their families, and most importantly……..HIMSELF. More details coming in the next few days! Brent Heeke
