New Campus - Love & Truth Cordova, TN

[HADDOCK]

Yes, I remember Carolyn as well. We all had lots of fun "back then"! So, are you and Eddie going to be at THAT church on Sunday mornings for now or Jackson? Just in case I come to visit? I'd like to come when Eddie was speaking, wherever that might be.

Sherri, Are you guys temporarily filling in until a pastor is found, or do you plan to find a 'manager' pastor/preacher and remain in control as the Apostle for the church?

We will be doing 9 AM and 11 AM in Jackson, and 3 PM in Cordova. I know we're nuts, but God will give extra grace. He always does!

I'm still looking for you to visit, by the way!!!

Eddie is the "apostle" (for lack of a better word) over all the L & T churches. We will own the building, assuming all assets and liabilities. We will eventually have a pastor in place there, but for now, we feel like they need to be taught by Eddie to catch the vision of L & T.

We've been burned before, so we are carefully setting things up on paper nowadays!

Sherry, I know you want to focus on Savanah, and cordova but dont forget your other churches. You dont want them to hurt while you all enjoy the new campus. I know it is easier doing the new business. But you can cause weakness in your other campuses. There are valueable people in your network that can help you in your ministry. Dont over extend yourself!
God Bless

We are being careful to do the right thing for all churches; I hope you haven't heard otherwise! Eddie has had meetings lately with the leadership from the other churches and unless we are getting wrong info, everything is cool.

We are trusting God to lead us. Just pray!

No Negative here, but I saw your comments about working on Cordova, Savanah, and Jackson. I know you have more campuses than that. I guess I just did not hear your heart for the other works in your ministry.

It is good that you have had meetings with them, it shows your concern and your help. Plus it shows that everyone wants to work in unity. It has been tough for those in your ministry. Dont forget the ones on the frontline working on your behave. Keep up the good work.

Once you can get all of your campuses inline your going to be even bigger than now.

Running business/ministry takes a team of people willing to make the sacrifice for the vision of the House(LoveTruth). It is amazing how people will give knowing it is not there on vision but someone elses. You guys have done a great job at getting people to buy/ and sacrifice for your vision. They are willing to give up everything for the vision. It is just amazing to watch people give to ministries.

God Bless

No negative here. You must have misunderstood what I said. I was worried about what your thinking. Your statement was, we are working mainly on Jackson, Cordova, and Savanah. I just did not see your heart for your other works. It sounds to me, these three campuses are in much better way to make it due to your hard work. Remember, one bad apple will ruin the rest. I am glad your having meetings with whoever, but remember this is your vision and people are sacrificing to see your ministry come together. People who will give to your vision in time, money, life, and people hateing them for your vision, they need to be taking care of. SO dont forget those on the frontline- they love you and your vision--
God Bless

Thanks for your words. We know what they've been through and we trust the pastors completely. They are all great men and all love God and are willing to sacrifice. It's hard to spread yourself throughout a network of churches, but I know God will help us.
