the Winfield church, I have retired. Sunday, Peggy and I placed
membership with the Pine Grove church. We live about one mile

the Lord. George Erwin, 111 Heather Ct.

HUTTONSVILLE, WV 26273 - ... The prison ministry
here at HCC is going well. There were two more baptized into Christ
three weeks ago. I am enclosing two names at the end of ones that
would like a subscription of the WVC. My plans are to be transferred
to St. Marys around April 1st. I hope to help get a prison ministry
started there. The church is stronger in the Parkersburg area
and, hopefully, someone will want to reach out to those in darkness.
(Matthew 25:36). I think of you and your family often and continually
keep all of you and your work in my prayers. When we plant the
seed with love, God will give the increase! Things are well with
me and my family and I can see the Lord working in our lives!

or think!" -Dennis Burch 24333, HCC PO Box 1.

GRAFTON, WV 26354 We just completed a singing
workshop with brother Tommy Tucker here at Wilson Ridge. Just
let me say that it was a huge success! Brother Tucker had 9 song
leaders sign up from the congregation here ranging from those
that had never led singing before to one that had been leading
for over forty years. With his structured and very well organized
approach, brother Tucker was able to challenge each song leader,
leaving each of them with a newfound confidence and a challenge
in their service to the Lord. A huge bonus to the song workshop
was the way that brother Tucker incorporated the entire congregation,
getting them to participate throughout each of the training sessions.
He both invited and welcomed their participation which helped
the congregation learn what the song leaders were doing and why,
thus helping to establish a communication between the song leader
and the congregation like we have never had before. I sincerely
encourage anyone looking for someone to help with their song leaders
and/or congregational singing to get in touch with brother Tucker.
You will be blessed by it. Bobby Jennings, Route 3, Box 282.
