A Wonderful Service At Morrison Park Sunday Sept. 29 2013 Glasgow, Barren County, Kentucky

What a wonderful morning and what a splendid service it was at Morrison Park Sunday morning. We had over forty people in attendance, some of the attendees are pictured above. Bro. Stanley Greer led us in a song of Amazing Grace, then I shared a short explanation about the park, the restoration, and about Rev. H.C. Morrison who founded it. Bro. Dillard Rigsby led us in prayer, then Bro. Timothy Shirley preached a splendid spirit filled sermon on conviction, true salvation and conversion. There were other special prayer request and heartwrenching prayers. We concluded with two verses of Amazing Grace, and I am satisfied all who attended were blessed in a great way.  The weather was most favorable and the Morrison Library cabin perfectly took care of our needs. We pray the Lord once again directs us to hold services there, very soon, as we continue the work on restoration. Special thanks to Morrison Park Board memberNancy Richey who spent several hours Saturday evening cleaning all the cabins and making preparations for the service. Please continue to pray God's grace upon us as we seek his will and follow his work. Gary Bewley

   The Morrison Park restoration effort had the honor of being the subject a recent news story in the Glasgow Daily Times weekend edition. Aug.17,2013.
