Dear brothers & sisters at Rutherwood Baptist Church,

Dear brothers and sisters at Christ Fellowship Community Church,

Dear Partners in the Lord,

Since December 31, 2002, every body has been speechless in the community of Bayonnais. We have been unable to believe our eyes, to trust our ears and even to comprehend what we have been touching.

On the 31st of December 2002, the 41,000 watt - Diesel generator was unloaded in the school + Church compound in Bayonnais.

Praise the Lord! Alleluia! Amen. We have been told that the generator cost about $11,000. - $8,000 came from Rutherwood in Boone and about $3,000 came from a 13 member - congregation in Gastonia. We are speechless, of course, but our hearts can express thanks and gratefulness. On the top of that, we have been told that Rutherwood has donated $4,095 to the Ministry and Christ Fellowships $3,055. These funds are being used to build a house of 19.7411 X 19.74ft (390 sqft) to put the generator in, to purchase materials, to hire a professional electrician to do the installation.

This generator has already made a great impact on our community. We are hoping that it will be more than a blessing for the ministry. Enough light for the classrooms, enough power for the computers. Some private houses are considering having electricity for the first time, which will be a means of generating funds for the Institution and giving employment to somebody.

We do not want to mention names, but while expressing our gratefulness to Rutherwood Baptist Church in Boone, and Christ Fellowship community Church, in Gastonia, we feel we are in debts toward our brothers John Bodenhamer, Mitch McClure, Kenny McClure, Larry Autry, Bob Bodenhamer + Linda, Rose Autry and Gibson Machine Company staff

Your crown will be big and bright in heaven and your reward will be heavy in heaven too. Thank you again so very much.

In his name,

 

Actionnel Fleurisma
