Greetings:
Please allow me to reach the point very quickly for time is something we all must wrestle with. This not a letter to solicit funds. Frequently I am told ; how can I help if I don't know?
So, starting right now: We completed our time as Interim Pastors at First Baptist here in Tulelake. Praise God, Pastor Joe has received a healing from lung cancer. In eight days we will present to our community a “SON” Rise service. Then the 27th of May our 90'X30” tent rises for America, Bless GOD Celebration. The tent comes down, and preparation after City Council on the 6th we will travel to Redding CA for a time of singing and testimonies. This is the first leg of a 6,000 mile circle of Hastings NE, Hastings MI, Cleveland OH, Grafton OH, Brook Park OH, Burkesville KY, Cloverdale IN, Pana IL, Michigan Valley KS, if time permits, Payson, AZ to return home just in time for City Council the 1st of August. WHEW, makes me tired just to write it down.
At $4.45 a gallon for diesel and 7- 8 MPG some where at $3,400 just in fuel alone. Daily expenses go on. Why do we ? Because GOD has directed us; as in the past, it's time to GO!! Obedience is mine, logistics is HIS. Praise GOD for our “Babe” all we have to do is get there, the rest is already with us..
This is where you come in, GOD has this all planned out but maybe HE would like you to assist in PRAYERS, words of encouragement, and yes finances. These are, all, some, or none,,,,it's your decision how GOD can use you to serve HIM.
HIS willing servants,
Don & Joy McCloud
