Greetings Family of God,

Recently Broadman Baptist Church was recognized by LifeWay (www.lifeway.com) as being one of the most effective VBS ministry’s in America.    Broadman’s VBS was in the top 100 churches in America among churches who have 100 or less in Sunday School on average.  WOW!!!  I am humbled and honored…as we all should be for the Glory of God.

Broadman has always worked hard at VBS and we have always had great success.  This is a huge pat on the back from God in my opinion for doing VBS with excellence every year.  It is a pat on the back from God for all those who have worked so hard.  This is really a big deal…it is a huge recognition from God.  We already knew we did VBS well, but to be recognized in the top 100 in the nation is a great motivation to continue to press on in the minsitry the Lord calls us to do.

I hope this encourages you…knowing that God has blessed our congregation.  Let’s always remember that everything we do is all about God.  He gets the glory.  Every child, every family, and this community witnessed the outpouring of God’s Spirit upon this place in 2007 and this past years VBS was even greater…2008 was a huge God thing like almost nothing I have witnessed in my life.  I still don’t know where all the people came from!!!  But I would assume that we will be recognized again for our accomplishments in the Lord in 2009.

Thank you Lord Jesus and thank you people of God at Broadman for serving Him,
