What He's Been Up To...

"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself." -Galatians 5:2,3

"And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." -Galatians 5:9

Let's be clear about one thing: Jaffrey Bible House belongs to God. It was started by His prompting on our hearts and it continues because of His blessing and provision. It has nothing to do with our knowledge or funds or skills - it's totally His. It's important to get this straight because things really are starting to take off with the store, and we're starting to hear kudos aimed in our direction. Let us respond as the angel does to John: "See thou do it not...worship God!" (Revelation 22:9, emphasis added).

That having been said, here's a few of the latest developments that Jesus has going on here:

1) We (Lisha and Will) are now Independent Consultants with Usborne books. This means a number of things, but the most important is that we'll be hosting at least a couple book parties each month at JBH! We're very excited at all the opportunities that this opens up for us (and you!), and will have a link up shortly to our Usborne page.

2) We have received some funding from Team Jaffrey for our store sign, so be on the lookout for that. We've had more and more visitors as the weather warms up, and having an actual sign is a good thing - and hopefully it will help the folks who get lost trying to find us!

3) Our weekly prayer times have been awesome, and we can all agree that God is up to something big. This shouldn't come as a surprise - He's all about that sort of thing! If you're in the area and have time to stop in and join us, we meet on Tuesday nights 6pm-7pm and Fridays 12pm-1pm, we'd love to worship Jesus with you!

4) Speaking of prayer, we're working on getting a Prayer Wall up on the site. A spot where you can post praise and petitions that we can join with you in lifting to our Heavenly Father - because He's always listening!

There's lots more and God continues to make this adventure an exciting one, so check back often! A special mention to the ladies attending the Rejuvenate conference - feel free to stop by during your free time!
