I want to THANK publicly,my Board of Deacons, who served with me so faithfully throughout 2006.

Due to upcoming Military responsibilities, two of them cannot let their names stand for this year. I (we) will miss Craig Bailey and Greg Lewis. These are men of integrity, and they have been nothing short of a positive support and encouragement. If you know them at all, you know exactly what I mean.

PRAY for their safety whether here at home or deployed abroad.

The Temple is not a small church friends. We attempt to “service’ nearly 1000 people. By that we mean, if you were to ask people what church they would consider their home church, they would say the “TEMPLE”. And that number may, after the growth in 2006, even exceed 1000.

We are two Pastors doing the best we can and we are so thankful for the volunteer assistance and of course, your continued prayers. I believe we’re in for a visit from the “driving rain of the mighty rushing wind”.

Thank you Greg, Craig, Walter, Bob, Jim, Jacob and Mark for your service throughout 2006.
