From the Director
May 2013
Experiencing springtime in Greenville, SC has been a blessing. The azaleas, tulips, and trees are all in bloom at the same time. Additionally, my orchid finally bloomed after 10 months of waiting and faithfully nurturing it with water and the proper amount of sunlight. As I enjoy the radiant colors of nature, I am reminded of two Bible passages. Luke 12:27 directs us to, "Consider the lilies how they grow, they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." Secondly, Psalm 14:1 tells us that, "The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God. . . ." It is a blessing to see the handiwork of our God. I trust that you too are challenged to set your eyes above and tell the Good News of Reconciliation to those around you.

In the last 3 years 13 people have been baptized and are still church members. About 1,000 lectures have been taught at LBI since 2009. Pray for Fruit of the Spirit and Christ-like character of the church as the Meyers are on a scheduled furlough
