We received an invitation to share the following article from Michael Kress the Managing Editor of Beliefnet.com. We pray it will be a blessing to you!
I had the opportunity to review a book sent to me to read and review from Wine Press Group. The author of the book is Rick Lemons, pastor of the Fellowship Baptist Church in Forney, Texas, since 1977 the church has been blessed of the Lord to have an increase from seven active members to well over 1,400. I recommend the book and am adding a link below to find the book and other resources pertaining to this excellent discipleship tool with racing interests. Chaplain Joe Louis

~Prayer List ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An 8.8 magnitude earthquake rocked Chile on Saturday, Feb. 27th, let us pray for those who lost loved ones and for this nation's leaders as they undertake the recovery and reconstruction from this earthquake. The devastation was limited to this nation due to the earthquake being deeper and their stricter building codes.
As of, March 2nd they have discovered that the damage outside the main city limits are more devastating!
We may not be able to go Chile or Hati or be able to give to assist in their financial needs but we can do the most important thing PRAY!

For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.
For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him.
John 3:17-18 (Amplified Bible)

Our friend Mike Whitehead is continuing his fight with cancer! I heard from Mike and Sue in the beginning of March. They will not be able to attend Bristol, but are praying that they will be able to be at Klondike Campground for the May races at Charlotte!
They send a "hearty thank you" to all who have prayed for Mike, they know that is why Mike is here!
Let us not forget that God is able to provide Mike exactly what he needs!

Request received from Chaplain Larry Capps of Dillion Motor Speedway
Samuel Gordon Bish an 8-year-old boy from Reynoldsburg, Ohio was diagnosed with a type of cancer called Osteosarcoma (stage 4). The cancer is in his right knee and it has also spread to both of his lungs. This is an agressive type of cancer and it will be treated with agressive forms of chemo. The parents have asked all of us to pray for him. We serve a mighty God and we know that HE can heal Sam.
