Great day

We had another great day here at Calvary Road Baptist Church yesterday as our Pastor Emeritus, Wade Sheffield, preached during the morning service. We had a family of 4 join the church and many came to the altar during the invitation. The family that joined (John, Denise, Dustin, and Kayla Abbott) comes to us from Cornerstone Baptist Church in Hanover, Indiana. They recently moved to New Albany and I believe they will be a great addition to the church.

If you haven't been attending our Sunday Evening services I want to encourage you to join with us as we continue with our series of lessons focusing on the family. "Hook, Line, and Sinker" is the title of the series and if you have missed these lessons I believe you have missed a blessing. I am working on getting the series of lessons put on cd's that we can hopefully make available once the series is complete.

This coming Sunday we will have a special guest with us. Bro. Roy Trimble, formerly of the Southern Gospel Quartet 'The Cathedrals' will be with us during the evening service. HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!!!

Well this past Sunday was a great day. We had two Bapitized (both recently saved) and another (Ron Dixon) joined our church family. We had 91 in attendance which is a great number for us. We also had several who were out for a variety of reasons. Tonight will be the first sermon for Josh McKinley and Seth Sheffield. We should have a great crowd tonight and I hope you are one of them. I know that it will be a great encouragment to these two young men if the church was full tonight.

Here is a funny video that a fellow pastor (thanks Dave) posted on his blog awhile back and if you've ever counseled anyone you will understand how he feels.

Today I had the opportunity to preach at a funeral for a longtime family friend. Although it was a sad thing to see him go, there were 9 souls saved at the funeral. PRAISE THE LORD!!! It is so awesome to see God use the foolishness of preaching to see people get saved. Sunday will be a big day here at Calvary Road Baptist Church. We will be having two people baptized (Tonya George and her son Allen) as well as having our annual Thanksgiving Dinner after the morning service. HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
