Howdy folks!
The past two weeks have been very busy. Our stay in Salmon, ID, was a real blessing. Sunday morning we presented some special music and cowboy gospel poetry at the Salmon Valley Baptist Church. We had a great time worshiping and fellowshiping with the folks in the congregation. That evening we drove to the Lemhi River Cowboy Church in Lemhi, ID, for a Mexican potluck supper and a cowboy church service. The Lemhi Grange Hall serves as the location for the church and is an ideal venue. Farmers, ranchers, cowboys and, even a few town folks packed the the hall for the service. The old hymns, gospel songs and cowboy poetry seemed to find resonance in this setting. What a way to end our fall tour and, what a special blessing for Suzann and I.
We were able to spend a few days in Salmon, before heading to Dillon, MT, for their annual Cowboy Poetry Rendezvous. The Salmon Valley Baptist Church has a parking spot for trailers, including a sewer hookup and we were quite comfortable during our stay. At the Dillon Gathering, in addition to the regular day time shows, I was able to perform in the evening shows and conduct the cowboy church service on Sunday morning. This is a real cowboy gathering and we were able to catch up with old friends and make new ones. As the gathering ended, we looked forward to being back in Cochrane and with our friends at Cambrian Heights Baptist Church in Calgary.
Coming off the trail is always hard, but we've looking forward to what the Lord has in store for us in 2008. We have made many contacts and can hardly wait for the Lord to open new doors for our ministry. As we close out this tour, we are reminded that a lot of folks are praying for us. There is no doubt in our minds that this is why we stay safe on the road and have all of our needs met. Please, continue to pray that the Lord will direct our paths and keep us on the trail for His Glory.
On the trail,
Mike and Suzann
