Stephen continues to enjoy good health. This is a wonderful answer to many prayers. Please pray that he will have a good resistance to infections during the winter. • Pray that God will bless and use the thousands of training manuals and visualized lessons. • Pray for Sam as he continues to write a series of booklets for “teens, twenties and teachers”. The first draft of the 12 booklets is complete. A lot of work still needs to be done before they can be published. Prayerfully they will start production in the early part of the new year. o t e elcom “Then Haggai, the Lord’s messenger, spoke the Lord’s message to the people, saying, “I am with you, says the Lord.” Haggai 1:13 Your Pastoral Team Robert Mullen Senior Pastor James Solarek Students Rick Brown RVCS Rob Gribbin Families Darin Allen Warren King Music Stanley Long Camp Eagle Outreach Terry Tankersley Robert Alderman Administration Minister at Large Your Elders Robert Mullen • Gerald Atkins • Bobby Crawford • John Law Haven Price • Carlton Wright • Scott Young We invite you to consider joining the Shenandoah Church Family.
