Faith Fund Rally

Greetings Brothers and Sisters,

    I would like to personally invite you to the upcoming Faith Fund Rally to be held on Thursday, July 6, 2017 at the Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center Meeting Room (also known as Lions Hall) 795 East Ross Clark Circle near Southeast Medical Center in Dothan.  The event will begin at 6:30 PM.  We welcome and encourage you to come and participate.                                       

    The combined Faith Fund Goal for the Rally will be $12,000.  Our Goal for the Dale County Camp will be $3000.  Working together we can meet and or surpass our goal. Ecclesiastes 4:12 states; “though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken”. 

    We ask that if you are unable to attend the Faith Fund Rally that you send your Faith Fund contribution in by mail.  Suggested amount to assist in meeting our goal for the Faith Fund is $125.00, which will purchase a box of scriptures.   Please mail your Faith Fund contribution to the following address:                                     

Dale County Gideons
PO Box 291
Ozark, AL 36361

    The Faith Fund Rally will take place prior to our next Gideon Camp meeting on July 13th so you may contribute by mail or on our Gideon Website, “The Connection.”  If you plan to mail your contribution, please have it in by July 1st so that we might have an accurate count for the Faith Fund Rally. May the Lord continue to bless and keep you.

                                                 Sincerely,
                                                 
                                                 Brother Jerry L. Lucas

                                                 Dale County Gideons Faith Fund Chairman

Note concerning Wayne Turner

 I talked with Wayne Turner this morning. He is in Flowers Hospital in Dothan, AL. Wayne shared with me that he covets the prayers of his Gideon Brothers & Auxiliary Sisters. He ask that we pray specifically that God would heal him from the diseases of Rhematoid Lung disease and Rhematoid Arthritis by whatever means God chooses including the doctors, medications, or divinely. Wayne's prayer is for healing and for God to receive the glory.

A prayer for today

Dear Heavenly Father, 

Please give us a president who is essentially good - who loves this country and everything it stands for. 
Please give us a president who respects You as the one true God. 
Please give us a president who will not try to destroy our churches. 
Please help us to respect what You have given to us and not take anything for granted ... ever again. 
Please God, weaken the evil and strengthen the good, both within and without.  May our eyes be opened.

In Jesus’ name, 
Amen

PAB 2016

Greetings Team, 
  Let me again thank you for your commitment to making our 42nd Annual PAB a great success. We had good attendance; 41 of the 44 Gideons and Auxiliary committing to attend came (93%), 40 of the 56 Pastors and Guests committing to attend came (71%) for a total attendance of 81 of the 100 committing. The overall % of attendance = 81.
  There was a wonderful spirit felt throughout the Banquet of which the group singing had a great influence in. Our speakers challenged, inspired, educated and emphasized to the pastors how important they are to the Gideon ministry. I felt each Gideon and Auxiliary was inspired and uplifted through this event. Angie Childers blessed all of us with her playing and singing.
  Camp members were generous in their support and all our expenses were met. Their generosity went even further as the Camp Faith Fund goal of $2800.00 was exceeded with an offering total of $4019.00.
  Thank you Auxiliary for a beautifully decorated banquet room and for the info gleaned at the sign-in tables allowing accuracy in the attendance totals.
God blessed your efforts and I feel He was lifted up and glorified through this event. May He continue to richly bless you as you serve Him through the Gideon Ministry.

 Serving Him with you, Don McCall, Dale Co camp VP
