Let me start by saying “Happy Anniversary.” You might be asking, “Preacher, what are you writing about?” I’m referring to the one-year anniversary of Covid 19.

Some of us remember where we were when we first heard about the seriousness of the virus. I do. I was driving home from church, listening to my radio. The Oklahoma City Thunder basketball team was scheduled to play the Utah Jazz that night. The game was cancelled, and the fans were sent home.
From that night on until now, life began to change as we know it. The year 20202 was most definitely a difficult year. Someone has rightly said, “Most people create their own crisis. But the Covid 19 was forced upon us.”

The good news is that we are seeing signs of things getting better. We most definitely are moving in the right direction. I’m not saying the storm is over, but I’m saying I do see the clouds breaking up, and I do see a glimmer of sunlight. Praise God!

As for Southmoore, our attendance is going up, week to week. We hade 92 in worship last Sunday. God’s people not only are attending services, but they continue to support the church through their tithes and offerings. Your giving truly is a testimony of your love for the Lord and this church. Southmoore is the best! I’m humbled to be your Pastor.

Please continue to pray for me and my battle with bladder cancer. I completed my 6 treatments a couple of weeks ago and will be having a scope to see if there are any signs of cancer cells or new tumors on March 24th. I believe I am cancer free! I’ll keep you posted.

As far as the water damage in the church, the carpet in the sanctuary will be replaced. It does appear that the tile in the foyer and in the hallways will be replaced also. That has not been confirmed, but we should know in a few weeks. The best news is that we are blessed that the damage is not any worse than what it was, PTL.

The signs of spring are all around us. We can already see the transformation. What about you? Would you be open for God to give you a new beginning? If not – why not?

To Live is Christ,
Bro. Danny
