Yancey, I can say Amen to your article. I too went through all of this but for a longer period than you. Thank God He delivered you quicker and your major years are seeing the fruit of the word of God in your life for His glory now!! Pray for us as we assist our Pastor(s) in this new Chuch plant in San Antonio, Texas. God is blessing. We just need a more permanent place by the end of the year due to the School District rules not allowing continuation for Churches longer than 3 years. The area is newer and heavily populated so there are not any existing facilities that would work at present. Running about 300 now in attendance. We have often visited your Church when in the area and consider it a very blessed congregation to have you as their minister. Thanks so much! – Lamar
