Serving God with His people at Faith OPC has been a great joy and blessing. When I grow up, I want to umpire Little League Baseball. I will revel on that day when I can say to a 10-year-old boy after four pitched balls, "Take a walk in the sunshine." My wife of 30+ years, Peggy, consistently demonstrates the love of Christ and remains my very best friend. Our six children, our four lovely, sweetie-pie daughters-in-law, and our four grandchildren serve as resident theologians.

Taking it to the Streets

God has met us with incredible opportunities

With the totals from the past 4 Saturdays, along with the door to door calling that we did last September, we have now knocked on 456 homes in South Grants Pass. God has blessed! About half of our neighbors have been at home and with half of those, we have had door-step conversations. In recent weeks, we are starting to present the claims of Christ at the door; as well, we have had opportunities to visit in homes and to offer prayer for various matters. We have been stunned by the goodness of God. 



Lately, we have been distributing doorhangers with our worship and contact information.

Pray to our God and Father: Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned, as it were, with salt, so that you may know how you should respond to each person. Col. 4:6.

Our goal is to glorify God. My personal aim is to be able to visit with neighbors 3 or 4 or 5 times with call-back appointments for Bible study.

Thanks.

G. Mark Sumpter
