Encouraged, Even Without Annual Banquet
Here we are, approaching November already, and many of you may be wondering about our Annual CTF Banquet. Originally, we began the banquet as a time for us to gather our supporters for an evening and love on them. It also was a time for us to share all the Lord had done through the year in this ministry. In the last few years, only a handful of you were able to make it to the banquets. This meant the majority of our support base missed the blessing of encouragement we so deeply desired to share with you. It is imperative that we show our supporters how much we appreciate the gifts to our ministry and ultimately to the Lord’s work through us. So this year, with the budget extremely tight, we chose to share our year in ministry a different way. Dr. Sharp and I are making a year-end video that each of you, our supporters, may view at your own convenience. It will allow Doc and I to express our deep thanks and vision for the coming years with every supporter, not just those able to make it to a banquet. We still desire the one-on-one time with our supporters that the banquet made possible, so we would love to schedule a meal together if you’d like; please just contact us. Please know we are always striving to be the best stewards of your precious gifts, whether that be a dollar or more. The Lord has given us another very profitable year for the Kingdom as we battle the onslaught of pagan worldviews. Here at CTF, the profit is not based in dollars and cents but in lives impacted for eternity by His Word. As you will see in our coming video, the Lord is driving us forward in this battle with no end in sight, but with the Hope of His Glory!
