From the Wyoming Front

Howdy Folks;
We've been on the trail now for a week and, it seems like had never been home. Life in the trailer is sure becoming routine. We took an extra day on the drive to Riverton, WY, and spent a night in Cody, WY. If there was ever a place to have a cowboy church, Cody would be ideal. I planted the seed in the ear of the Director of Missions for that area. He agreed and promised to follow up with the pastor of the local SB church.

The gathering in Riverton was smaller than usual. Because of the gas prices, all of the other performers were from Wyoming. Talk about stress, I had to represent the whole country of Canada.

The cowboy church service at the United Baptist Church in Riverton was very special. I had filled their pulpit for three weeks last year and we had made quite a few friends. Their new pastor is very keen for the Lord and the church has really begun to grow. Needless to say, we had a fun time and as Suzann says, I got too folksy with the congregation. She calls it dygressing but I call it embellishing.

Ww're looking forward to the next few weeks in the Riverton area. Our concert at the Lander Baptist Church in Lander, Wy, is being well advertised and the pastor is excited about the outreach possibilities it presents. We'll also be back at the little log church in Pavillion, WY, and expect to have another foot stompin' good time singing the old gospel songs and hymns.

As we travel, we continue to hear from folks who have been praying for us. What a blessing to know that we have all that prayerful support.

Well, that's it for now. Keep prayin' and we'll keep singin' and preachin'.

On the trail,

Mike and Suzann
