Lobby Day
January 14 was lobby day for us in South Carolina. As a member of ABATE of Greenville, where I am the Chaplin, I have opportunities to be a witness when we go to Columbia SC to meet with our state representatives and talk with them about motorcycle laws. Because it was raining this year, we drove in our cars and I had two bikers with me. I used the time to witness to them. Please pray for Chuck and Bob to be saved. In Columbia I meet a lot of bikers from all over the state which gives more opportunities to witness.
**********************************************************
Financial Report Mistake
In last month's newsletter I reported that we made our budget, but when our bookkeeper was doing the end of year report, we found I had added wrong. I stated our income as $62,192.09. The correct amount is $58,542.69. Even though we did not make our budget ($60,000.00), it still was the best year we have ever had, and we are praising God for His blessings and thank our supporters for your help.

Daytona Beach Rally
The Daytona Beach Rally takes place twice each year (March and October). In past years we had a couple out west who gave us their time share for a place to stay for free each year. However, they have had to sell it. We now have to pay for a hotel to stay at. Please pray for our need to increase our budget this year by $3,000.00 to cover hotel costs for Daytona and for the other rallies we do each year. A week in Daytona during the rally costs us between $750.00 -- $1,200.00 for 5 to 7 days (depending on what is available).

Heritage Bible Church
The bikers that I have been ministering to and I will be at the morning (9:30 am) service at Heritage Bible Church in Greenville on Feb. 16. Fatboy will be giving his testimony, and will also be baptised that morning. We are trying to use this service to invite as many bikers as we can to come and witness Fatboy's baptism which we pray will be a witness to those who are not saved. Please make this a matter of earnest prayer.
**********************************************************
Prayer Requests
1. Continue to pray for Rick & his wife
2. Pray that we will have many opportunities to witness and see many come to Christ
3. Pray for Dwayne who says he is saved but is not living for God
4. Little Henry needs to be discipled
5. Thomas needs a lot of our prayers. He is fighting God's leading.
