a message from Pastor Brad

Hi Everyone,

We are now in a Best Buy borrowing their internet! Hopefully, we will have it hooked up in my parent's home on Tuesday so we can get connected with all of you "refugees" ( I prefer evacuees, don't you?). We are so very thankful that we have heard from so many of our flock who are safe. We are praying that God will do a great thing in New Orleans very soon. Many of the pastors and people I have spoken to on the phone for the last 4 days have called this a "God moment". Truly, it is that. We are poised and ready to get back and help the hurting and minister to the needy, as God has called us to do. You will not believe the number of churches who are ready to partner with us, help us get back on our feet, and start again for the glory of the Lord. They are all over the country. Please don't put your roots down too deeply, because the Lord may want you back in New Orleans soon! :) I know, however, that realistically we may be a mission church after we get past the relief and rebuilding stage. We are excited that the Lord may use our facilities as a staging ground so we can share the gospel with those who have seen the brevity of life up close and personal. Keep praying for the Lord's will for Berean Bible Church to be clearly known to the leadership team. We need clarity now, and short term planning in a big way! Blessings to all.
