22nd ANNUAL CRUSADE FOR CHRIST…is now history! It was held at the Oak Grove Church of Christ in Independence, Louisiana on Sunday, March 23rd through Thursday, March 27th. As always, the Louisiana churches displayed their Southern Hospitality with two meals daily and lots of Christian fellowship. We enjoyed expository preaching on the theme: “WHO WE ARE.” What a blessing and challenge to be reminded of our identity as Christians serving God in the end times. A highlight of the meeting was hearing from two young men: Matthew Hartman and Trent Lott who both were used by the Holy Spirit to enlighten and encourage those in attendance. We ask that you continue to pray for these young men but also the planners of the Crusade that they will continue in the future. The meeting is always such an encouragement from our Louisiana churches and those who provide housing for the week.
