Not the caliber of a small rimfire cartridge, but the number of people that came out tonight for the Firehouse Bible Study!  There were several folks from NTBC and from another church there, but there were, I believe, 6 people associated with a few different fire companies out tonight.  Amen.

Jeff, who is a fireman, Deputy Chaplain and is a member of NTBC, conducted the study and did a great job.  His message was entitled: "Will God kick you to the curb?"  It was a good study about how God does not forsake us even when facing trials.  He was so excited about the number of people in attendance.  When he started the study three months ago we had about 10 attending and they were all church folks.  The next month there were 2 visitors, then a few more and then 6 tonight.  I can't wait till next month!

God rewards & blesses faithfulness, and that's what He has been doing with this Bible Study.  Many First-Responders (Firemen / EMTs) are not involved in any type of Church.  Their lives often revolve around the firehouse, so why not take the message to them.  That is something that Jeff has been wanting to do for years and when the opportunity presented itself he didn't hesitate a moment. 

Would you please pray for this ministry.
