Dear Church Family,
Another fruitful day in Vancouver. Then teens passed out another 1,500 revival posters in the morning and enjoyed at youth activity with the church in the afternoon. The adults worked on pressure washing the building and doing a lot of yard work. Much progress was made and it's exciting to see all the pieces coming together. Saturday we will start moving a lot of the belongings over to the new property. We cannot get in the buildings till Monday, so unloading everything into the new building will be our last job before departing on Monday. Thanks so much for your prayers. We will be praying for the services there on Sunday and covet your prayers for our services here at Harvest Baptist.

Dear Church Family,

Thursday was spent passing out over 1,000 revival posters and painting and pressure washing the new building. Tomorrow we will pass out another 1,000-1,500 fliers and then join the church youth group on a youth activity. We will also finish painting and do some “clean-up” on the grounds.

Below are some pictures of the new property. God has blessed them with 4.8 acres of land in a growing part of town. There is great potential at the new location and you can understand the excitement of the church in owning their first piece of property.

Bro. Goette passes along his sincere gratitude for sending “reinforcements” during the move and for our prayers and support during these last 14 years. It has been such a joy meeting other brothers and sisters in Christ and sharing their excitement for the Lord’s work.

We are praying for you all!

Dear Church Family,

Today was spent visiting the sites of Vancouver. Nine brave souls, climbed 3,700 ft high Grouse Mtn. The sites were beautiful!! It's amazing to see God's great beauty in the country of Canada. Thursday, we will spend passing out Revival posters and painting the new building.
Also, the men will be adding a closet to the Pastor's home and other maintenance related jobs. Thanks again for your prayers. Bro. Goette and his church family are tremendous host. It has been refreshing to hear the testimonies of his people. Your faithful giving has helped establish a bright light of the gospel in this city of 2 1/2 million people. A city of this size has less Independent Baptist churches than the city of Albany. Pray that God will continue to send forth laborers.

God bless,

Bro. Keith
