Excited and prayerful. We began October in Luke 10, “The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few” (Bible Study: “http://wjlanier.wordpress.com/2013/10/11/gods-harvest-is-plentiful-stand-up-move-out-luke-101-4-17-20/“).
Tomorrow Progressive Baptist Church will be going outside the walls and into the community. It is the season. It’s not the first and won’t be the last.
It is clearly the season. We just left a MICAH revival at St. Matthew CME. Pastor Richard Shaw preached a powerful word ont the church and social justice. He preached from the harvest narrative. Let us pray that the Lord of the Harvest send more laborers.
We petition your prayers on behalf of Progressive as we go forth tomorrow . . . #outsidethewalls

It’s really awesome that you are encouraging your church to reach out to Milwaukee! There are a lot of hurting people there that need someone to love them. Thanks for stepping up!
