As I reflect on this past Sunday's 40 Days of Community Celebration Sunday, I marvel at God's goodness and how God's people responded for this campaign. We asked our congregation to trust the Campaign Team who worked dilligently, planning, preparing and coordinating all of the various events. Most of all, I believe God blessed our prayers. We so wanted to experience His presence and power and He did not disappoint! I was so blessed when I heard the testimonies of the small groups, when I saw the transformation of the Veteran's Care Home, enjoyed seeing the many ministry booths of the Ministry Fair(did I count 18 or was it 19?) Arabel, your hospitality team in serving each week Cafe Kinoole was amazing! By the way, that soup you served was so delicious! Thank you for your hospitality! Denise, we are grateful for your incredible organization and planning of the service, potluck supper and the whole day (and I would agree with your statement that we offer the very best potluck meal on the Big Island!) And some of our regulars were either out of town or unable to attend and so we missed their participation and delightful offerings! A special thanks to our students who stayed to set up for the afternoon supper! We appreciate your participation, your enthusiasm, your support and your service! We learned many things over the past 40 days but especially that when we trust God and trust His people, amazing things happen! God bless Kinoole Baptist Church! Keep on praying, keep on participating, keep on serving and keep your eyes on Jesus!
