Our relationship with “The Sower” Dr. Michael Guido spans my lifetime.  For the past ten years or so DeWayne and I have been actively involved in his ministry the Guido Evangelistic Association in Metter, Georgia.  Time tonight will not permit me to elaborate properly on how special this relationship has been.  DeWayne, Edie Grace and I owe much to Dr. and Mrs. Guido.  I plan to share this remarkable story in more detail in another blog.

  This morning at our invitation, Dr. Guido led our worship service at Believers Church in Statesboro. (Ok it will take another blog or two to explain how our church movement is taking the region by storm)  At 92 Dr. Guido continues to inspire and overwhelm me.  He preached one of the most powerful and incredible messages I have heard in a very long time this morning.  His sermon was based on suffering and the reason God puts it in our life.  He went on to explain how we should respond to it and allow it to humble us and build us up to be stronger Christians and stewards of our church, family and communities.  We had a large number of salvations which reconfirms how powerful his message was.  PRAISE GOD!

We were most moved after the service when our Pastor Scott Moore invited the congregation to visit with Dr. Guido.  The line wrapped around the sanctuary and one by one, young, old, black, white, rich and poor stood patiently in line to share their personal story about how “The Sower” had planted a seed in their lives.  Thank you God for this phenomenal experience.  I was humbled as I witnessed the difference one man has made in thousands and thousands of lives over his span of 50 years in the ministry.

If your interested in having “The Sower” visit your church email us and we will help accommodate his travel and schedule.  We feel compelled to share the power of his ministry with as many of our friends as possible.  It is as if we lived in biblical times just a few miles from one of Jesus’s disciples but never took the time to meet them.  Take a second and view their web site and read a little more about their incredible story.  The pictures chronicle their 50 year journey.  Aren’t they charming?

  WOW…it is going to take a few post to tell you all about this wonderful evening.  No Fair…many of you figured out that my mystery man….is still my man….DeWayne.  It is hard to believe that we have been together for over 20 years and married 19.  We did act as though we were still in High School and our bodies are paying for it today.  I actually had a little later curfew for the reunion than I did for my Senior prom.  DeWayne, Edie Grace and I hosted Dr. Michael Guido at our church today so it was not as late or as crazy as the pictures make it seem.   It was SO good to see so many friends from high school.  Many of them I have not seen in 20 years.  Isn’t that crazy?  Life is simply too busy.  OK enough jabber and the good stuff…the pictures.  Here are a few and I will post more later.  Included are the Reunion, the after party and the after - after lake party (it was a late night and we threw in the towel much earlier than the hard core few).
