Recently, I had a call to be in Mobile, Alabama, on office business. While I was there, I visited Living Water Baptist Church and Pastor James Richardson. We had a wonderful service and the fellowship was refreshing and sweet with this good church. Living Water Baptist was a project we took on about five years ago with Brother Chuck Ford. We loaned this new church the money to buy and remodel the building where they presently meet. It would be an understatement to say this project turned out well. The building is beautiful and well kept, and the Sunday night I visited, there was a full house. The pastor and people were faithful with every payment and paid this 30-year mortgage off in five years. That’s exciting, but what’s even more exciting is they are sending one of their members to the next church planting school (April 19-23).
Vic Baxter plans to launch a new church in Easton, Georgia, this July. This is an example of God’s plan in action. Follow the process and it works. Family Fellowship Baptist Church birthed Living Water Baptist Church which will birth Trinity Baptist Church this summer.
