Pastor’s Notes...

Greetings My Brothers & Sisters In Christ

It's been a wonderful summer and the Lord has been and is

blessing us tremendously here at Jackson Spring Hill. Our revival was a spiritual success as always. We got

to see lots of people and many of them said that the revival just keeps getting better and better. We thank God for that!! We pray and fast and God honors our service. We are looking ahead to the fall and to the

holiday season. Time is moving so fast. Thanksgiving and Christmas is almost upon us. Our Bible study has grown, and we are learning so much about the Lord and our

lives are much better. We thank God for those that continue to come out faithfully and study the Word of God. We thank God for those who come and visit us and share

their testimonies. We are a small church where the Spirit of the Lord Lives... If you want to praise and worship the Lord, please come and visit us. You will be so glad that you did. May God continue to bless and

keep you in His care. This is our prayer in the name of Jesus Christ.

Rejoice in the Lord, Pastor Danny O. Beal
