AT LAST! - We're only preaching in one location!
 
This is the first time in seven years that we have only been pastoring ONE CHURCH at a time. Today is the first Sunday that we haven't traveled between churches. I feel so free; I don't know what to do with my afternoon. I have a roast cooking in the crockpot and am getting ready to get out Christmas decorations. For three years, we pastored Adamsville and Jackson. Then Jackson and Savannah. Then we pastored Jackson, Savannah, & Cordova all at the same time. Then just Jackson & Cordova. Now.........just Jackson!

Please, Lord, don't let Eddie get any ideas about starting any new churches at least for a few months. We need a break!:nutso

Did Cordova get a new pastor?

I dont know how you all did what you did. I am finding it hard just to do one church.

So I can under how you must be welcoming the extra time. I am glad it all worked out for you guys.

Brad Williams, who was doing the music there, is the new campus pastor. But it will be a video venue like Savannah on Sundays. They are having small groups and/or prayer service midweek.

The only sad part is that I don't get to see you every week!

Sheri, I am very happy for you and Eddie.

I assume that the reason this change could be made is because God has been blessing and these other places have someone else there to pastor/oversee them?

Can you believe that people have said in all seriousness, that God is not blessing anymore in our days? They just need to look at what He is doing thru you folks.

God bless you and bless others thru you :)

Yes, thank the Lord! They have "Campus Pastors" who take care of midweek services and they facilitate the Sunday services. Everything is live (music, etc.) but the preaching is Eddie on the big screen. It's been very successful in Savannah; we're hoping it will be the same in Cordova. All of our other churches have a "normal" pastor. LOL!

I know he is quite the orator! I really appreciate the way he teaches and expounds on biblical truth.

Sherri was nice to bless us with some of Pastor Eddies preaching series-we listened to them over the Thanksgiving weekend and was very blessed.

Glad you liked them. I taught him everything he knows.:christmoose

Actually he comes out with stuff that I'm amazed at, and I've listened to him for almost 30 years!
