The wind of revival is blowing again.  We are rejoicing to see souls born into the kingdom of God.  We have seen many souls saved and lives rededicated to Jesus Christ each week for several weeks now.  There is a visitation of His convicting presence filling the meetings once again!  In Bakersville, North Carolina’s Youth Revival we saw 23 young people dedicate their life to Jesus.  There were six the week before in Tennessee and ten in Florida…salvation and recommitments in Alabama and Virginia.  Once again He is waking up His believers and drawing the backslider home!  I believe we are close to the coming of the Lord but I am not nearly as concerned about the day or hour of His returning as I am about Him carrying one individual home at a time.  We are seeing many reaching the end of their journey.  They are arriving at an appointment with God and we must be ready for that appointment!  I am daily checking myself to see if I be in the faith!

 We have just closed out our Spring Retreat in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.  This year was our largest attendance with several coming for their first time.  Each service was filled with anticipation as His Spirit moved through many different ministries.  We received reports of healings as men and women of God obeyed His voice and let their river flow.  How good and pleasant when brethren dwell together in unity!  Three days after Jeff and Melissa returned home to Royston, Georgia, Melissa gave birth to her twins at 33 ½ weeks.  The girls weighed 3lbs 7oz and 3lb 11oz and stayed for two weeks in the hospital.  Today Brianna Hope and Emily Faith are home and doing great!  Jeff and Melissa are so thankful for the prayers of everyone at the retreat that paved the way for their new arrivals!  You can view pictures of Brianna and Emily on the Picture Page under Spring Retreat 2006.

 Ronne and I have a new broadcast in the Quad Cities, Illinois on Sunday at 9:00 a.m.  We are carrying our video camera with us on the road and making tapes in each location for the Sunday service.  We are enjoying this new endeavor and are expecting to hear great reports of lives touched in that area.

 Ronnie has just completed his latest CD, “Just Passin’ Thru” with the new songs he has been singing for the last several months in our meetings.  We are ready to send the master to Nashville to be published and it should be available within a few weeks.  You can watch the newsletter or the Tape Page on the web for details on how to order.   I am sure you are going to be blessed by these songs!

 We have mailed packets to each pastor inviting our friends to the 4th Annual Tent Meeting/Campmeeting in Mount Airy, NC.  This is always such a special time of visitation of His presence.  Every year we enter into this meeting one way but we go out another way – changed by the power of His presence!  It is also a beautiful area to bring your family with many places to sightsee during the day.  This is Mayberry RFD, home of Andy Griffith.  You can eat at Snappy’s Lunch, get a haircut at Floyd’s Barber Shop, eat at Aunt Bea’s Restaurant and visit Barney’s Jail.  It is a beautiful drive to the top of Mt. Pilot or today’s Pilot Mountain with a scenic view of the surrounding area.  You are also within a very few minutes ofo the entrance to the breathtaking Blue Ridge Parkway weaving in and out of the North Carolina and Virginia mountains.  There will be pastors, evangelists, musicians and singers coming in from many different states and using the gifts God has so graciously given.  We hope you are already making plans to attend.  The details and motel listings are on our bulletin page or you can email us with any questions at:  trammellministry@aol.com.

 

I feel a real stirring in the air and I am so excited to see what God has in store for the next few months!  Our expectations are high for this is the day the Lord has made and WE WILL REJOICE!
