We kicked off our Fri. night meeting at Lake Gaston Baptist Church.Thank you so much for blessing us with a scrumptious fried chicken dinner, everything was so good. Pastor Adam Hammond shared from the book of Mark 9:33-37. He ask "What does it mean to be the greatest?"
Jesus is the greatest human that ever walked this earth. God don't look at us as good, because He says"all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God".We all need Jesus as our personal Savoir. Jesus said " if you want to be first you must be last" , greatness comes from serving others.What a challenge.We had one that heard that message of needing a Savoir. Praise God, for salvation!

Our director was in anguish to announce to the fishermen that he had been praying and felt the Lord leading him to shorten the tournament to 12pm because of the  rough weather that was headed our way with chance of tornadoes. Safety always comes first, and we wouldn't want anyone hurt or dead on our watch.

Saturday morning started off nice in the high 50s° S 8 mh wind , steadily picking up.The guys really hammered it, only having a short time to fish.
