New Chapter


Well after a lot of prayer and counsel from our pastor the Heyboer family has joined Faith Bible Baptist Church. After 6 years of driving 40mins on Sundays and Wednesdays the Lord has shown us that He wants us at FBB. Faith is about 15 miles from our house, it is also the church where Charlie goes to school. After having the pastor and his family over to our house we began to see the vision that he has in growing God's church. Scott and I needed to know his testimony and if he was leading the church in the right direction. It was so hard to say goodbye to everyone at CBC. We had made such great friends and had the priviledge to serve with some really genuine christians. Community Baptist of Lansing will always hold a special place in our hearts. I think the hardest part was saying goodbye to the teens. The Lord has given us the complete priviledge over the last 6 years to show many teenagers how they can know for sure if they are on their way to heaven. There is such joy to see a hard, rebellious teen give their life over to Christ and cry like a baby when they realize how much Jesus loves them. They now have the rest of their lives to live for Him but the key is to support them in their walk and encourage them to keep going. The world is a bit different now then when I was a teenager and it seems they get bombarded from every angle by the world and what the world wants them to be. To all you teens, I love you guys and the Heyboer's will always pray for you. Scott and I are so excited for the Lord to use us at Faith. We just want to see our lives move forward for Him.
God is good all the time
Kerry
