We don’t often get too serious here on the blog. Life’s too short to be serious all the time, that’s our philosophy. Especially on a blog. But today, we have something we’d really like you guys to pray about. Corey Hicks is coming to Flomaton High School tomorrow night for Summer Jam 2010. He’ll be performing, sharing his testimony, and presenting the Gospel. We met Corey last summer in New Orleans. He came to Grace BC for our end of the summer family day, and it was awesome. He has a heart for kids and a passion for reaching the lost. When we contacted him about the possibility of coming all the way from New Orleans to little ‘ol Flomaton, he responded with a resounding YES!
We are excited about the opportunity that he’s going to have to reach kids that may not listen to the rest of us (even though WE know that we’re the coolest people ever, somehow all the kids don’t seem to get it…weird.) ;-) Anyway, here are some things we’d like to you to pray about:
1. That people, specifically non-believers, will come (we’ve worked really hard at publicizing the event, but you just never know what turn out will be like).
2. That they would listen to what Corey has to say.
3. That God would open their hearts to the truth of the Gospel and His love for them.
4. That we as believers would be ready to continue the work that is started tomorrow night (reaching out, loving the people of our community, discipling new believers, etc.).
5. That God would be glorified through everything that’s done and said.
Thanks for joining with us in prayer. And if you live close by, we’d love to see you tomorrow night! The concert is at the Flomaton High School auditorium and it starts at 6:00 p.m. Admission is only $2.00 per person.
Just to give you a little more info about Corey, here’s a video of him sharing about how God rescued him from addiction:
“Answer me, O Lord, answer me, that this people may know that you, O Lord, are God, and that you have turned their hearts back.”
-1 Kings 18:37
We are praying for God to do a work so amazing that everyone knows it is He and He alone working through His servants.
I am so excited that Corey is doing a concert in Flomaton. Praying you have an awesome turn out! Wish we could be there!!
