My Dear Eastern Kentucky Friends and Colleagues,

Greetings in the Name of the Lord.

This week each of our churches walk through Holy Week and celebrate Easter. Many of our pas-
tors have been sharing with me about new conversions, rededications, sanctifications, baptisms,
membership, communion, healings, and the list goes on. This time of the year is the best time for us
to celebrate. The world looks to so many of the wrong places for answers but we know Jesus is the
ONLY answer. I trust you will each do your part to make Easter a fantastic success for your local
church.

I would like to share with you some very important information;

Year End Items:

and challenged us all to be faithful. More of our churches supported the tour than in our his-
