Banquet For The Battleground, WA PRC

Dear Prayer Team,

God is so very faithful and his provision is something that can be counted upon! We had a radio spot, three benefit concerts and a full concert on a Sunday morning this week. The amazing thing about it is, I don’t quite know how I was able to make it through all of it vocally. Physically, there’s no way that I should have been able to sing all of that, but God provided!!!! Don’t ya just LOVE IT when he does that?

Thursday night we sang at the Battleground Washington Pregnancy Resource Center’s (PRC) Banquet. We were privileged to hear the amazing testimony of a young woman who went against the pressure to terminate her pregnancy and with the loving support of the ladies of the PRC carried the baby to full term and allowed “the perfect couple” to adopt the baby.

After she spoke, the keynote speaker Pastor Hutcherson spoke. He is a former Dallas Cowboy and Seattle Seahawk who pastors a very large congregation in Washington state. 2005 was an amazing year for him, as he found himself meeting with Condoleezza Rice and President Bush at various times and organizing large rallies in various cities under a ministry called Mayday For Marriage which supports the sanctity of marriage. He has also labored to make the adoptive process less inhibitive for couples seeking children, “…so that they don’t have to take out a second mortgage to adopt a child!”

But as he tells of the amazing life he has led, he points back to the decision of his single mother to carry him to full term, and the support of his strong grandmother. “The amazing things that have happened to our ministry in 2005 would have no chance of happening unless my mother made that decision back then!”

Before we sang our last song of the evening “Over”, told the audience of volunteers and supporters, “Every day that you get up and do what you do, you are making a difference!”

Can you guess which song we sang? :-)
