This is our Newsletter and Quarterly Report for the 4th quarter of 2006. We finished studying the Sermon on the Mount. See our church website for the outlines of the latest sermons preached on Sunday mornings. In our afternoon services we have moved from studying about various Old Testament Bible characters to things in the New Testament.

Pastor traveled to Carmichael, California in October for the Bible Conference at Carmichael Baptist Church and had a wonderful time of fellowship with the brethren there. After the conference their pastor Elder Bill Brown, had some chest pains and had to have some stints put in. We are glad he is doing better now.

Sister Marion and I are doing OK health wise. Thank you to those who prayed for our grandson AJ Buffaloe. He is doing better now too. The latest test showed his brainwaves in the normal range. His balance seems to be improving. Sister Turner is better too.

Our church attendance needs improvement. We discontinued our mailing ministry to newcomers in the community because of no response. We started to canvas the neighborhood around the meeting place using several different gospel tracts we ordered from Wilbert Ellis in Florence, Kentucky. We’ve had a few visitors but not from the folks we visited. People here have very little concern about spiritual truth from the Bible. They are more interested in doing their own thing. A recent article in the Tacoma News Tribune told of some “church” groups that are growing because they rent movie theaters and let the people bring their Mochas and Lattes into the service while they play drums and guitar music for them with repetitive “worship” lyrics. One fellow was quoted as saying that he enjoyed it because he never felt lost in any of the services.

The weather has been rather cantankerous lately. First we had floods, then high winds, then freezing conditions and snow. There have been many power outages and some loss of lives. All in all we have faired well here at the Killion home. We are on a hill and I have a 5KW generator for spare power. We are hoping for a break, weather wise, the last week in January when Brother Garner Smith, Pastor or the Fellowship Baptist Church in Clarksville, Tennessee is coming out here for a weeks meeting. Pray for REVIVAL.

Our two Missionaries are doing well and we receive good reports from them about the mission work. It is an honor to be co-laborers with great men of God like Elder Cresencio Baldemor in Mindanao and Elder Robert Ellis in Ireland. We started sending financial support to five other Missionaries again. They are: Curtis Pugh in Romania, Ted Tweet in Honduras, Frank James in New Guinea, Jeff Lawrence in Australia, and Burt Craft in Mexico. Thank God for biblical ministries like these. Pray for us. AMEN.
