We had a great day with the church at Punta Gorda yesterday. It was a joy to teach the bible class and preach in the morning service. This congregation, though rebuilding, and in the midst of building a new building, is very interested in outreach. Br. Doug English and his wife, Evie and Doug are well known by the church for there vivisitation's Br. Doug had a bible study already for us when we arrived. This bible study opened the door for today's work-at least two studys this afternoon and possible another study this evening. This congregations has had several baptisms this past year and is involved presently in teaching several others. Br. Doug serves this congregation unselfishly and because he refuses a salery, this money goes to trying to finishing the building. This congregation, The Peace River Church of Christ, needs some assistance now. As you know there building was totally destroyed. They could have quit, or gone somewhere else for "Charley's" devastation for their building was total. As you read this, please call Br. Doug English at 941-628-6472. He will be glad to answer any questions about the congregation at Punta Gorda. Brethren, Charlotte Co. is a heavily populated area that needs the gospel. We have a small congregation at Peace River that is doing their best to reach out to others with the message. They are very evangelistic minded and they deserve our help. They really have the potential in making a real impact for the Lord in the Southwest Fla. area. Please call Br. Doug for more info about this church and tell others about their need too. I personally believe this church deserves our financial help. I also believe we will be glad we did. Don
