Return to the Brownsville Assembly Home Page

What a great conclusion to our missions convention this past Sunday. As we announced the building of another Habitat Home someone in the congregation has pledged to pay the whole amount needed - that's $25,000! Praise the Lord! What a powerful testimony to God's provision. The truck load of food from Feed the Children was unloaded in record time of 45 minutes. The NBA had unloaded a truck of food the previous week and it took Shaquelle O'Neil and his team 75 minutes to unload it! The congregation of Brownsville is mighty in Spirit.

This Sunday Pastor Horton will begin a new series on the Body of Christ. What is the church? Where do you fit? How to discover your spiritual gift? Are all questions that will be answered during this series.

Brownsville's 2008 Missions Convention started this past Sunday. What a great day! Wayne Hilsden, senior pastor of King of Kings in Jerusalem, preached a great message of challenge and conviction.

Missions Projects announced:
1. Satellite Campus in Navarre with Kyle Jernigen pastoring, a graduate of the first class of BRSM.
2. A tractor trailer of food for the community from Feed the Children will be arriving Wednesday evening to be unloaded.
3. Another Habitat for Humanity Home was announced and will be built by Brownsville Assembly in the Brownsville community.

Blessings,
Pastor Evon

Sunday February 10th, Pastor Terry preached a powerful message on discovering who we are in our new identities in Christ. He said "the old house has been destroyed and this morning you were going to be able to discover the new house that God had build". He used the illustration of Extreme Makeover - Home Edition and kept telling us, "God is saying today, 'move that bus!'".

This past Sunday Pastor Horton read a letter from Donna concerning the anniversary of the passing of her son Jamie. It was moving and timely as Brownsville is renovating the Nurseries. Thousands of babies, during revival, stayed in the Nursery Annex. Now the Nurseries are moving to the Family Life Center, where all of the Children's Ministries can be located in one building. If you'd like to donate to the Nursery simply go Target.com, or Lowes.com, look up expectant mother as Brownsville (1st name), Assembly of God (last name), order and have them deliver!

The following is Donna's letter about Jamie:
