   Then the end will come, when he (Jesus) hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
Corinthians 25:24-26

          Monday July 28 th ~

     Published the newsletter from the Foursquare church here in Lincoln City, Oregon. Then had a delicious breakfast with Cary, the owner of the Sambos restaurant in town.

     Drove to Newport where I was able to park overnight and shower at the Nazarene church.

          Tuesday July 29 th ~

     At 5:30 in the morning I met the owner (Scott) of the "Winds of Praise" Christian radio station for a prearranged interview in his studio here in Newport. Then ministered at the nursing home for a sweet group of folks, followed by a delightful lunch with a dear Sister (Robin) and her dad.

     Spent the afternoon and overnight at Scott & Kellie's in Siletz, Oregon about thirteen miles inland. Good timing, they had a slow cooked Pot Roast Dinner planned. Yum!

          Wednesday July 30 th ~

     My host have given us the opportunity to set up the recording equipment in their large enclosed Pole Barn. The chance to do this kind of work only presents itself four or five times a year, so I've learned to jump on it.

     Spent a good part of the day laying down some foundation tracks (drum, guitar, vocals) on two songs. Then one of the church members (Ron) came by with his mandolin to contribute.

          Thursday July 31 st ~

     Laid down the foundation tracks for a third song. Then a drummer (Jordan) contributed his talents to the three songs currently in the works. Later, a Sister from the church (Sally) came by and shared some keyboard and vocal tracks.

          Friday August 1 st ~

     More recording work.

          Saturday August 2 nd ~

     More recording with Jordan putting in some lead guitar parts.

     Readjusted one of the songs to feature Sally as the lead vocalist and burned it to disc, as a memento for the congregation.

          Sunday August 3 rd ~

     Attended both morning services at the "Sacred Ground Baptist" church here in Siletz where I was given the honor of sharing some songs and testimony. These dear folks even took up a sweet Love Offering for the ministry. May God Bless Them!

     More fellowship time with this lovely family as I packed up the recording equipment in preparation for heading out tomorrow.    

    

And so begins another week.

May The Lord Our God
Guard, Guide And Direct You.
In The Name Of Jesus. Amen!

Yours in Christ, Larry

P.S.    To God be the Glory!
