Upper Salem Baptist Church - July 31st

We had a very enjoyable and blessed evening as we returned to Upper Salem Baptist Church, just north of Metropolis, Illinois. It was good to be back with the folks at Upper Salem, after about a 12-year gap since the last time we sang there.

Testimonies at the conclusion of the service indicated that lives had been touched through the songs and spoken words, which is what it's all about! Some of the songs reminded people that God is always faithful, that He is always there to hear our prayers, that he has in store for us the best things for our lives -- and we can trust that He'll be faithful. We ended the evening with "You Keep Praying" as the best advice for guiding our lives.

We don't want to forget to thank the ladies of the church for the delicious dinner enjoyed by everyone after the service. Almost made us want to stop singing early, but as David commented, sometimes we like to sing even better than we like to eat -- especially when the Lord is blessing.

Thanks, Upper Salem, for a very enjoyable evening worshiping the Lord.
