Revival Reflections
A REVIVAL OF A LOVE WORTH SHARING
Most of our revivals are Sunday morning through Wednesday evening.
I preach and teach, and my wife and daughter, sing and share their
testimonies.
We travel in a 40 foot, self contained, diesel pusher motor coach, and
usually park on the church grounds. We make no financial demands,
stipulations, or even requests concerning travel expense, room and
board allowance, or honorarium. However, we would welcome a love
offering.
Being full-time vocational evangelists it is our privilege, to live by
faith, travel by faith, and ministry by faith. All financial matters
are left entirely in the hands of the church. We will be happy to
abide by whatever the church feels led to do. Based on the cost of
diesel, and our mileage per gallon, it cost us about 50 cents a mile
to travel. This is certainly not a request, only an evaluation. Of
course, we would welcome any contribution you may feel led to make
toward our travel, especially if we have a great distance to travel.
When possible we try to book our meetings in the same geographical
area of other meetings so our travel is limited.
We will be responsible for all our meals in the motor coach. However,
we would be happy AFTER the services, to go out for a meal, or
refreshments and fellowship. We love to become personally acquainted
with the people.
Anytime we need to communicate, email us at
cmesinc@earthlink.net, or
call me on the cell: 214-801-7383. Would you please draw us a detailed
map to your church from the city limit sign? More information is
available on our web site: www.massegee.org.
If an outside minister of music is desired, and prudent, we prefer to
enlist someone we are accustomed to using. However, we would enjoy
working with your music person. In some cases, my wife,
Beverly, leads in praise and worship. By the
time Beverly and our daughter sings two or three songs, involves the
people, shares a word of testimony, and Beverly does her routine with
Erick, her ventriloquist figure, we dont need any additional music.
We are providing a copy of our REVIVAL GUIDELINES containing pictures,
news releases and a smorgasbord of helpful ideas that will enable us
to get the maximum out of our soul winning effort. Use whatever you
think best for your situation. While we believe that prayer, preaching
and the power of the Holy Spirit are imperative for real revival,
there are some simple programs we have found very effective in
enhancing the bottom line --- better crowds, more baptisms, and a
deeper spiritual impact on Gods people.
We welcome the opportunity to have morning Bible Studies or noonday
inspirational services.
We are always prepared for civic organizations, TV, radio and school
assemblies. We have both religious and non-religious programs.
