PTC's LifeSaver Bus

    • I just wanted to say how HAPPY I am over our new look on the bus.
    I just can't hardly wait.
     
     
    Before picture

    We began raising money to paint our white church bus in July of 2007 after seeing a bus in an issue of the Pentecostal Herald, featuring the First United Pentecostal Church of Ferriday, Lousiana's LifeSaver Bus. We thank this wonderful church for their great paint job idea and for the picture they sent us to give to the guys who painted our bus. I know it will be a blessing to our city and our children. I am looking for a Holy Ghost Revival in our Kings Kids Church. I have had 10 this year get the Holy Ghost.

    Bus ministry is important to me as I was once a bus kid myself.  I may not be where I am today without someone having a passion for kids.  It takes a lot of time and effort to build a children's ministry that many people take for granted.  Even in my own experience as a director many people overlook investing into our church of tomorrow.  Our Kids!!  If we don't invest the word, our time and care into these children then our church's will die out, burn out.  You want Holy Ghost fire in your church invest in all of your kids not just ones you pick out with great talents.  I have seen many overlooked, forgotten and within years never seen again.  I hope if your reading this that you will make a change in how you view your children's department.  Sunday School and Children's Churches are much more important than most Christians realize.   
     
    The Paint Job!

     Now adding the Sign

    

    It's Completion
    I remember how excited I was when people picked me up for church on Sunday morning, so I can only imagine what our children are going to think when they get to ride a LifeSaver Bus and the memories they will share.

    Mystery of the Precious Gems: A Study of the Twelve Tribes

    Image
    First, there is prophetic meaning in the number twelve all throughout the bible.  It symbolizes God's power and authority and perfect governmental foundation.  It may also symbolize God's completeness. God made a covenant with Father Abraham that he would have seeds that no man can number like the stars in the heaven and like the sand on the seashore.  Abraham's grandson that was naturally born named Jacob, and later renamed by God, Israel who had twelve sons, each son would come to represent a tribe of Israel that were God's Chosen People.  Exodus 24:4) says, "And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.  Moses constructed the twelve pillars of stone at the foot of the Mount Sinai as a memorial to God.  The stones represented the twelve tribes of Israel and signifies a new generation committing to a covenant as they establish t...

    Study Guide to My Posts

    Image
    I have friends who have been waiting on me to finish some of my studies.  I don't have them all done but I do have quite of few ready to go.  I have also went through and added the link at the bottom of each study so all you have to do is click the link to the next one study on the list.  I hope you enjoy studying God's word as much as I do.  Several of you have helped me along on this journey as you ask questions I became familiar with God telling me to search it and see what I might learn and share with others.  Feel free to ask me if you have any questions you may have come to mind.  I am always adding to my studies as God reveals more about them at different times.  So I always say they are a work in progress.  God Bless each of you.

    "Gam zeh ya'avor" Hebrew for "This too shall pass"

    Psalms 57:1 Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast. We have often heard this phrase at one time in our lives, but it's not actually found in the Bible. So, where did it come from. I found that most Jews attribute this phrase to an ancient "folkloric" parable about King Solomon: One day Solomon decided to humble Benaiah Ben Yehoyada, his most trusted minister. He said to him, “Benaiah, there is a certain ring that I want you to bring to me. I wish to wear it for Sukkot which gives you six months to find it.” “If it exists anywhere on earth, your majesty,” replied Benaiah, “I will find it and bring it to you, but what makes the ring so special?” “It has magic powers,” answered the king. “If a happy man looks at it, he becomes sad, and if a sad man looks at it, he becomes happy.” Solomon knew that no such ring existed in the world, but h...
