I pray this finds you all well and happy in the Lord. This year is a challenging one, to say the least. Our nation
is headed down the road of socialism, and it looks like there is no way
out. Now, I know that our God is the God Who can take the seeming
impossible and turn it for good, but he won't do it without Christians
doing their part. I also know we might think that 2 Chronicles 7:14 is
the one verse we over use in these situations, but how can we ever see
revival in this country without God's people getting down on their
knees before a just and holy God, and begging for mercy, and REVIVAL?
2 Chronicles 7:14, "If my people, which are called by my name,
shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from
their wicked ways; then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their
sin, and will heal their land." IT WILL STILL WORK TODAY!!!
May I suggest that every Christian find a prayer partner. One
who is like minded, and will be loyal to you, and dedicated to prayer,
and faithful to meet with you on a daily basis.
Then meet in some particular place where you can have privacy with
each other and God. Then PRAY for revival, lost souls, your church,
your pastor, your nation!
A verse that will help in this endeavor is
Matthew 18:19,
"Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as
touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my
Father which is in heaven." Do you suppose the "anything" would
include a real Holy Ghost, Heaven sent revival? I'm pretty sure
it
would! Would it include souls being saved? Again,
YES! Would it
include changing the hearts of seeming heartless politicians?
Yes! Christian, find a partner in prayer
and fall to your knees and PRAY!
We have experienced a very slow beginning of the year. In
January I was with Bro. Joel Basham, Liberty Baptist Church, Trenton,
MO. God blessed with many at the altar for both services. In February
I was with Bro. Brandon Sichting, Good Shepherd Baptist Church,
Mooresville, IN. Again God blessed. Also in February, I filled in for
Bro. Terry Seney, New Testament Baptist, Spirit Lake, IA, while he was
out of town. The first week in March I was with Bro. Larry Dohmen,
Norfolk Baptist, Norfolk, NE. We had a tremendous time there, and the
Holy Spirit was very evident in the services. Thank You, Lord!
I am looking forward to a busier time of year. From the last
week in March through April I will be on the road. Please pray for the
services with:
Bible Baptist, Horseheads, NY: March 29;
Sempronius Baptist, Sempronius, NY: April 5;
Antrim Faith Baptist, Waynesboro, PA: April12-17;
Calvary Baptist, Batavia, IA: April 19;
First Baptist, Mexico, NY: April 26-29.
Thank the good Lord for these meetings, and I pray God will do a great work in each church!
I have a few openings in May, October, November and December,
so if you could use me sometime during these months please let me
know. Revival is desperately needed in our land, and money is not an
issue, so please don't let the fear of not having a good love offering
stop you from having a revival!
God bless you!
Keep living for Jesus,

Phone: 641-682-1905 Cell Phone: 641-680-0302 Email: calvarycrier@yahoo.com Web Site: gsbaptistchurch.com/calvarycrier Dear Friends,
Much has happened since our last newsletter. We have endured a gut
wrenching election, where we saw our country vote to become a total
socialist state. Our nation has gone so far into the gutter, which is
so anti Bible, anti christian and antichrist that there is absolutely
no hope aside from the intervention of God. God can still intervene,
but will He? He won't if God's people don't wake up! (2 Chronicles
7:14)
ON THE ROAD:
In September I filled in at Open Door Baptist Church in
Marshall, MO, for three of the four Sundays. There have been some men
who have shown interest in the church, and they have had at least one
candidate. I have not heard whether they called him or not.
September 21-26: it was revival time at Calvary Baptist Church
in Batavia, IA, Pastor Tom Shipley. We had a great time with these
good folks. The attendance was outstanding and there were many
decisions made during the week.
October 1-5: I was with Bro. Kenneth Fountain, and the Gospel
Light Baptist Church in Blanchester, OH. Praise God for Bro.
Fountain's faithfulness as he strives to build a Biblical Baptist
church while others are giving way to the progressive movement.
October 12-19: I had the special privilege of preaching a
revival for Pastor John Kirby, Faith Baptist Church, Eldon, MO. Bro.
Kirby and his wife Chrissy were saved and sat under my ministry in NY.
He has graduated from Heartland Baptist College in Oklahoma City, OK,
and is now doing a great job in Eldon, MO. We had a tremendous week,
and a young lady was baptized in the creek! I might add the COLD creek!
October 22-26: Pastor Lowell Hall, Faith Baptist Church,
Cushing, OK, had me for their fall revival. We had a great week, and
many were at the altar each night. Plus, Bro. Hall gave me a shot gun,
but please don't tell Obama.
November 2-5: I was with Pastor Bob Healy, Faith Baptist
Church, Poplar Bluff, MO. I praise the Lord for Bro. Healy's
faithfulness. We are living in very discouraging times for many
smaller churches, but Bro. Healy remains faithful, and God will bless!
November 9: I have a meeting with Bro. Jeremiah Baird, Bible
Baptist Church, Fredonia, KS, annually on the second Sunday in
November, and we always have a good time. This year the church had
a ladies retreat on Saturday which had been blessed mightily by the
Lord, and the ladies were excited and gave some great testimonies on
Sunday. So the blessings the ladies received on Saturday carried over
and we had a super day. PRAISE GOD!!!
HEALTH:
I had my annual check up
November 13. I guess I'm alright. The doctor was sick, so
she didn't spend much time with me.
The family has been sick with various conditions. They have
shared colds, bronchitis, and the flu this season so far. Please pray
for our health.
PRAYER REQUESTS:
1. Winter meetings.
2. Our finances.
3. Salvation of souls.
4. Our Nation!
5. Real revival in the churches!
6. Our health.
7. Traveling mercies.
8. Keep the Buick going for Jesus!
THANK YOU!!!
Keep living for Jesus,

Summer in one paragraph:
The busy time of the year started in May with a soul-winning
conference at the First Baptist Church in Park Rapids, MN, Pastor
Pearce, May 18-21. This meeting was blessed with many at the altar to
pray for the lost. From there the next stop was the Bible Baptist
Church in Horseheads, NY, Pastor Alex Raducz, for a Sunday meeting, May
25, and it is always good to be with our friends there. Then, June
1-6, I was with our good friend Pastor Ed Rice and the Good Samaritan
Baptist Church in Dresden, NY. Three souls were saved! Praise God!
June 8-11, I was in Palmyra, NY, at the Palmyra Bible Baptist Church,
Pastor Dick Brasser. This was a blessed week with decisions at the
altar. From there I traveled to the Community Bible Baptist Church,
Pastor Pete Egnew, in Port Leyden, NY, June 15-18. Attendance was up
there and several folks came to the altar. Next I was with Pastor Jim
Jenkins and the Calvary Bible Church in Grieg, NY, June 19-22. This
was probably the best meeting we have had since I have been going
there. It is good to see God work! June 29, I was with the Bible
Baptist Church in Plattsburgh, NY, Pastor Robert Fry. God worked in
the services. July 6, was my last meeting in NY for this year, and I
spent it with the Seneca Bible Baptist Church, Pastor Terry Fenton,
Seneca Falls. We had a good day. Praise the Lord! From NY I traveled
to South Dakota, where I preached for Bro. Gary May, Oak Creek Baptist
Church in Wakpala, July 20. From there I traveled to Montana, and
preached for Bro. Martin Krautter, Grace Baptist Church, Deer Lodge,
July 16-20. I had a good time there, but suffered with a headache the
whole week. Because of the forest fires in California, the winds
carried smoke all the way into Montana, and Bro. Krautter, who suffers
with asthma himself, said that he thought my headache was because of
the smoke. From Montana to Missouri: August 6-8, I was in the Fishers
of Men Conference, in Sweet Springs Baptist Church, Huntsville, MO,
Pastor Tim Gibson. August 10, I was with Pastor Don Ivie, Bible
Baptist Church, Ash Grove, MO, and Sunday evening I filled in for
vacationing Pastor John England, Ozark Baptist Temple, Ozark, MO.
Praise God for the busy summer, and the blessings along the way!
Fall, 2008:
School has started here and Mrs. Bennett is busy working in the
Christian school, and Andy is back is class. Andy loves the social
aspect of school, but really has not gotten into the academic aspect,
although he is doing well. Believe it or not Andy will be 15 on
September 9. WOW! Where has the time gone?
August 24, I was aked to preach in a church in Marshall, MO.
They are without a pastor, and have asked me to fill in for the next
few weeks.
I am looking forward to the meetings coming up in September:
Batavia, IA, in October: Blanchester, OH, Eldon, MO, Cushing OK, Poplar
Bluff, MO, and Fredonia, KS. May the good Lord bless each one!
Open Dates:
I do have open dates in November, December and January. How

1. Salvation of souls.
2. Meetings.
3. Our health.
