We have entered into a new horizon!  God told Ezekiel never let the people leave the temple the same way they come in.  We have entered 2006 one way and left it another way.  I want to leave 2007 different than I came in.  We have entered into this new year with great expectations of what God has in store for His people.

 We are preparing for our 6^th Annual Spring Family Retreat in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.  This year the meeting will be April 12-14.  The meeting begins Thursday at 7:00PM, with 2 services on Friday and ends after the Saturday morning meeting.  Ronnie and I will host a buffet lunch Friday after the morning meeting.  This is always such a great time of fellowship for everyone. This weekend will be opening weekend for Dollywood.  Dolly Partin will be Grand Marshall of the parade on Hwy 441 at 5:00PM on Friday.  Make sure to arrive Thursday or early Friday to avoid the traffic coming in for the parade. Each year has its own special visitation. Make your plans now to join us for this time of refreshing in the presence of the Lord.

 Our Ladies Retreat was a great success again this year.  We have videos and dvds of the meetings available.  The women came with expectations and He met with us in each service.  We have such a faithful group of ladies that come every year to volunteer to help make this meeting a success.  They video tape, take pictures for the web, register the women and serve at the tape tables.  Without a group joining with you with the same vision…to see lives changed…it would be near impossible.  We are so appreciative of the women who come to help us make this meeting such a success every year. 

This year was our first retreat without Pastor Sara Hayes, who went to receive her reward this year.  We will miss her beautiful spirit and sweet voice singing, “He’s My Best Friend” for years to come.  Make your vacation plans now to join us November 15-17, 2007 for our 7^th Annual Ladies Winter Retreat at the same Smoky Mountain Convention Center.

 We have mailed out our first monthly tape for the year.  We are offering them either in cassette or cd.  If you would like to receive a monthly sermon or was on the list and have not received yours this year, email us at trammellministry@aol.com and request either cd or cassette.  You can also order the past cds from our tape page. 

 We have a new tv broadcast in Illinois this year.  We are now on Tuesday at 10:00PM, Friday at 3:00PM and Sunday at 9:00AM.  The Sunday morning broadcast is a special made show just for the Quad Cities area.  The others are clips from our live services.  We want to touch lives in 2007 through any avenue available!  Please keep us in prayer this year as we reach out to accomplish even more for Jesus than ever before.

We love you.  God bless you.
