I hope those of you who are part of FBC, Tatum are busy praying these days. We are in the midst of 3 weeks that can change lives. Our G. A.'s are off in camp this week. Every year we send these girls with the hope that our Lord will touch their hearts and minds. Some may decide to become followers of Jesus. Some may decide to use their lives in a special way for our Lord. This should motivate us to spend much more than our casual time praying.

Then next week we will begin our Vacation Bible School. Our ladies are busily putting up the decorations around our building. Hours of preparation go into this one week of the year. Please pray that we can reach as many boys and girls as possible. VBS offers almost one year's worth of bible study compacted into one week. This is a week that can be just as significant as a revival meeting. I can only hope you are also busy praying for this.

The last week of June will be when our students go to Dallas for a week of mission work. This is not going to be missions in the wealthy areas of the city. This will be on the cutting edge of a very difficult neighborhood. I know that I am praying for this week. I will be sending my daughter along for her first outreach effort. Not only can our students affect others but they in turn can be changed by what God does with them there.

This is a tremendous opportunity that we have. This is something not every church gets the opening to try. Do you realize that three weeks from now that God may absolutely shake us through these efforts? What a loss if we do not look to Him for this blessing. Put these things at the top of your to do list. Pray as if the success of these days depend on it. The truth is that it really does.
