Fall


As  we look around and see the power and beauty of God's world and the changes that He shows us each fall, may we never forget to thank Him and give Him glory for all He has done for us.  May the one who spoke all this wonder into existence speak to you today.

Christian Life

The normal Christian life is one of constant and continual revival. While longing for a global revival to sweep the earth or a local revival to touch our church, we can personally nourish our soul every day. We can grow wise by the reading of God's Word, become enlightened by meditating on memorized Scripture, learn to treat others with the tenderness of agape love, and display the sweet traits of humility and confession. We can bolster our spirits with hymns and songs, and we can comfort and strengthen our hearts by reflecting on heaven and on things above.

For renewal to take place, we have only to study God's blessed Word and let it do its work in our lives.

Regularity of devotion, this holiness of common life... is a devotion that is the duty of all orders of Christian people.  William Law

Haven of Rest Mission


The residents at the Haven of Rest Mission have a wonderful, blessed opportunity to learn about God, themselves, and to develop a solid, safe and secure plan for their lives based on the Word.  They are put in a safe environment and given the time to experience God and what God is trying to do in their lives.  When they see this, they can bring honor and glory to God and allow them to become an asset to their family, church, and community.

We desire your prayers.  Thank you

Curtis Pless, Mission Director
