The Need

Yesterday my family and I went to Waterville. My heart breaks for the people in this city. Just driving around looking at the people, and city, and the churches that currently reside. I have so much enjoyed my time at both Church Hill Baptist Church and now at Bible Baptist Church but I am looking forward to how God is going to use us in Waterville. Please be praying with us about God's timing. We feel very confident we are sure of Gods plan but we do not want to interfere. We want Gods will for our life. We sure do appreciate your prayers. Some pictures of our trip.
A Picture of First baptist church in Waterville. This church was once greatly used of God. It played a role in starting Colby College which once was a College dedicated to training Baptist preachers for the ministry. Now an American Baptist Church.

Colby College was once a place where Baptist preachers where trained. Sadly today it is a liberal arts college. Full of drunkenness and worldliness.

Colby College a place of over 6000 souls.

Thomas College a school of just under 1000 souls.

Broken hearted over Waterville's mega church. No Gospel message is given and people are lead astray. Unfortunately there are hundreds of people that attend their only service each week, Sunday Morning.  How fitting, they meet in the old movie cinema.  Still entertaining.  I'm not mocking... it's just sad.

The Universal Unitarian church in Waterville. Notice the rainbow flag on the front of the church. No Gospel message and the people are lead astray.

 One of the two Catholic churches in Waterville.  No Gospel message and leading people astray.

    There is over 16,000 souls in Waterville and they have no Gospel.  How shall they hear without a Preacher?  Pray for us as we pray for God's timing and direction to bring this great city the Gospel.

So glad we share the same burden for Waterville. Its hard waiting, as I want to get busy NOW... but I want Gods timing and direction more than anything. Its hard when you think of how many slip into eternity EVERYDAY!
I love you and appreciate your heart and your burden.
