Yesterday at the Port
[Ps.107:23-31]
Each week you get to hear a report on the Port Ministry of our church. We started this ministry back in February of 2013. We have been given access to the ships that sail the all the seas of the world, and the men of many nations. We have a ministry where the world comes to us! Over the years God has grown this ministry and allowed thousands of Bibles and hundreds of men to be saved! Over the years God has allowed over a dozen of men in this church to participate. I went to the port solo yesterday and had a super day. God has put on my heart to share some of what I have learned. I pray that you are blessed also.
