John 4:35, "Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." 2 Timothy 2:2, "And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also."

The Purpose of my ministry is to glorify the Lord (Ephesians 3:20 - 21)through:

1. The lead others to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Romans 1:16 - 17
2. To see changed lives produced by right living. Colossians 1:28 - 29
3. To see lives committed to serving the Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 12:1 - 2

The Plan for accomplishing this purpose:
