Chris and I just finished a series on ownership. It was really neat to see one of our teens
Justin Sharp taking ownership of the church bus. It was used last night to take the teens to the revival mentioned above and they are using it again Saturday, Justin was at the church today washing the bus getting it ready for the next trip. This is ownership in action, may his tribe increase. Thanks Justin

Mermit Mason in his mid fiftes trust Christ as his savior, a few days later he went to be with the Lord.
Mrs. Begay a 75 year old trusted Christ and was baptized on Mother's Day.
Mr. Peter Tom age 86 trusted Christ from a hospital bed and then went to be with the Lord one day and a half later.

Doug WilliamsDorcas and I just wanted to say hello, and ask for your prayers for us as we travel to Ecuador tomorrow. We will be there for about 10 days, and will be doing some translation checking on 2 Samuel and other OT portions, and doing some teaching as well. Thanks so much for all of your prayers and support, and please pray that the Lord will use us to be an encouragement and blessing to the Awa believers and to our co-workers in the mission while we are down there. (Doug is pictured above on his current trip)
Seth Bradley had a great write up in the Roanoke Times, he has really excelled in sports at AHS. He is graduating in a few days and heading to Roanoke College in the fall. We have seen Seth and many of our graduates grow up at Faith. Plan to attend and honor them the first Sunday in June.
