I thought I would post some pictures of our church and of a new convert being baptised in Jesus name.

Please pray for sister Flores as she is in the hospital not expected to make it. She is a new convert from our rest home ministry.

I see you have both the Hymnbooks and a file folder of the new Praise and Worship tunes! Electric drums too, cool!

Great pic of the baptism...God bless Sis. Flores!

The people decided they didn't want windows even though I did. They won.

Not only was he rejoicing, but so were the angels and saints in heaven.

That or when they were building they didn't have enough money for the windows :-)

I LOVE the doors - especially the inside view of them. VERY nice!

The doors are really sharp... I agree!

The church is fully paid for with out taking up one offering. God provided.
The only time we pass a plate is when a missionary comes by.

What a great church and wonderful baptism in Jesus name for Sis. Flores.

How do you pay the light bill or the water bill or the taxes? Or - even more important - how do you pay the pastor????

These doors are beautiful too! My "symetrical brain" has a hard time with different etchings on each door. I want them the same. But they're still really nice :) Thanks for sharing these pictures. It's fun to see where others worship.

When I started this church I told the people that it was not about money. I would not take up offerings as long as the need was supplied.

I worked for the first few years and one day they told me they would take care of me if I would stop working. I have not worked for 7 or 8 years now. They take care of me very well.

As far as utilities the building is kept at 73 degrees all the time and our electric bill is never over $200.00. The building is encased with 4 inches of sprayed on foam.

Good to see the great things happening in Robstown, Bro. Lake.

God does indeed provide. The electric bill for the church is a lot less than most homes.
The picture of the baptism is beautiful.

Beautiful! I'll be praying for Sis Flores healing. In Jesus Name! Amen.

The city of Corpus Christi surrounds the church but we have a Robstown address.

Yes my home cost about a third more to cool.
Thank you.
