From the Preaching Minister

I received a telephone call this morning from Willis
Jackson informing me of his wife Carolyn's passing. Willis,
Carolyn, Laura, Nathan & Stephanie have endured a very tough
year as together they prayed and fought against the Cancer.
Everyone is deeply appreciative of every prayer, meal &
visit which helped to make this battle a little more
bearable. The visitation should be Wednesday evening 6-8pm
at Mt. Zion Christian Church with the funeral being
scheduled for Thursday 10AM. And then dismissing to the
Linkliter Cemetery in Laurel County off HWY 229 about 8
miles out of London towards Barbourville near the
"Campground Methodist."
Please continue to pray for this fine family.
Scobee Funeral Home is handling all arrangements and flowers
can either be directed toward delivery at Mt. Zion or to
Scobees Funeral Home. David Scalf has been asked to conduct
the services as J.D. Miller & I will be in Oklahoma for a
Missionary Convention and Speaking to churches. We are
scheduled to return the following Monday.
Willis called me this past Thursday even as my airplane
flight was landing in Lexington and he told me of Carolyn
decline. He also said he thought Carolyn wanted to make a
verbal re-affirmation of faith in Christ Jesus. After being
picked up at the airport by Judy, we drove to their home and
together with Nathan, Willis Judy, Carolyn and myself we all
voiced that great declaration of Faith in Jesus. We should
all thank God for the time Carolyn had with us and that time
which we had with her.
This Sunday a wonderful speaker, Karin Paparelli, from
Nashville, Tennessee plans to come to Mt. Zion and
experience with all the wonderful worship afforded in this
remote location and to speak of the grace of Jesus. Please
invite your neighbors and friends...and maybe your neighbor
and friends may become one in the same person.
I thank you for the warm response given to Terri Wooley when
he was here a couple of weeks ago. Everyone I have talked to
has spoken highly of the awesome service and even mentioned
the moving video brought to us via the internet and J.D.
Miller. Thanks J.D. for bringing this which was sent to you
as I know you receive many videos, music and letters. Thanks
for taking time to go through each one so Mt. Zion might
receive the very best there is to offer.
I hope to preach a stirring message the Sunday of November
30th on the subject of being sure of your salvation. It will
investigate the thought of being sealed with Christ.
Remember the signet ring used to seal the rock over the
Lion's den from Daniel 6? Well, this sermon surrounds the
idea of a soul being sealed, sealed by the Holy Spirit and
what that exactly entails. Read up on the subject of the
Holy Spirit and the power given when the third part of the
Trinity is present within a human, you just might be
surprised to find what you will discover.
I thank you for being real this past Sunday by allowing
those that needed time at the altar and weeping with those
who weep. I did not know while preaching that God would stir
my heart to the degree it was stirred. I felt an
overwhelming presence of Jesus and His desire for all of us
to become more and more real with the author of our
existence and salvation. While knowing I cannot live my life
by feelings alone, I knew I was not alone in all I was
feeling. I thank God for a church so decidedly dedicated to
the Cause of Christ that she would embrace the move of His
Holy Spirit in such a real and tangible way.
Remember to pray for this United States of America to the
point we would be united...United for the Cause of Christ
forever and ever and ever.
Your Preaching Minister,
Kenny
