GREAT HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH, CARSISLE, PA.

THE MEETINGS CLOSED TONIGHT WITH A GREAT CROWD OF GREAT HOPE FOLKS AND SEVERAL VISITORS. TWO OF THE VISITORS, A YOUNG MAN AND HIS GIRLFRIEND WERE SAVED THIS EVENING AND ONCE AGAIN THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS IN USE. THE YOUNG MAN THAT WAS SAVED AND WAS ABOUT TO ENLIST IN THE MARINE CORPS, HEARD THAT I WAS PREACHING AT GREAT HOPE, AND CAME HE THOUGH, JUST TO TALK. WE TALKED ALL RIGHT BUT VERY LITTLE ABOUT THE CORPS AND LOTS ABOUT THE LORD. IF WE CAN JUST GET THE LOST UNDER THE SOUND OF THE GOSPEL THE LORD WILL SAVE THEM OR OPEN THEIR HEARTS FOR FOLLOW UP. ONE TWENTY-ONE YEAR OLD YOUNG LADY WAS SO CONVICTED ABOUT HER OWN PERSONAL STANDARDS OF DRESS THAT SHE AGREED WITH THE LORD TO WEAR CLOTHING THAT ONLY CHRISTIAN LADIES WEAR. CAN YOU HEAR ME SHOUTING ABOUT THIS? THE LORD CONVICTED ANOTHER LADY ABOUT HER PUNY EFFORTS TO HAVE HER DEVOTIONS AND BIBLE READING AT NIGHT AND PRAYING FOR VICTORIES OVER BATTLES THAT SHE HAD ALREADY LOST. SHE BEGAN THIS WEEK TO PRAY AND HAVE HER DEVOTIONS EARLY AND INDICATED THAT THE LORD HAD ALREADY CHANGED HER LIFE WITH VICTORY VICE DEFEAT.

GREAT HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH, CARSISLE, PA.

WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY THE LORD GAVE HERE AT GREAT HOPE THIS LORD'S DAY. WE HAD THREE SAVED, AT LEAST THEY PRAYED WITH ME AND ASKED THE LORD TO SAVE THEM BUT WHEN DEALT WITH THEY HAD DIFFERENT STORIES THEY TOLD PERSONAL WORKERS. GOOD FOLLOW UP OPPORTUNITIES, AMEN! THEN THE EVENING SERVICE WAS WELL ATTENDED AND THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS GREATLY USED. ONLY THE LORD KNOWS WHAT DECISIONS WERE MADE AND HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE FRUIT THAT REMAINS. PRAY FOR GOD TO MEET WITH US AND TO HAVE HIS WAY IN THE HEARTS AND LIVES OF THESE GOOD PEOPLE. CARSISLE AS MANY OF YOU KNOW WAS THE WESTERN MOST OUTPOST OF THE ARMY BACK IN THE INDIAN WAR DAYS. IT IS NOW THE HOME OF CARSISLE BARRACKS WHERE THE U. S. ARMY HAS IT'S WAR COLLEGE. ATTENDEE'S AT THE COLLEGE ARE ALL LTCOL AND COLONEL AND USUALLY ARE SELECTEE'S HEADED FOR COMMAND DUTY AND GREATER PROMOTION. ONE MIGHT SAY THAT THIS IS THE CREAM OF THE CROP. PRAY FOR ME AS I WILL BE ADDRESSING A RATHER LARGE GROUP OF "CHRISTIAN MEN AND WOMEN" AT THEIR WEEKLY PRAYER SESSION. THIS IS AN HONOR AND GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR A CLEAR PRESENTATION OF THE GOSPEL. SOME WILL INVITE THEIR LOST FRIENDS SO PRAY THAT THE LORD WILL SAVE SOME.

HE WAS WELL KNOWN IN THE COMMUNITY FOR HIS EXCELLENT CRAFT OF MAKING VIRTUALLY ANYTHING OUT OF RED OAK WOOD. IT WAS NOTHING THAT I DID BUT JUST AN ANSWER TO THESE FOLKS PRAYERS OVER A VERY LONG TIME. NEEDLESS TO SAY THEIR WAS A BIT OF EXCITEMENT IN THE CHURCH.
