Visit from Allen Ballard

A couple of weeks ago, I was surprised and blessed to have a guy drop by to see me whom I had not seen in awhile.  His name is Allen Ballard.  Allen served a few years back as youth minister at Gassville Baptist Church.  Since then he has pastored a couple of churches in Arkansas, and recently has moved to the upper peninsula of Michigan. I was blessed to hear of the work he is involved with there, as he pastors one small church and is planting another.  He also has a vision of starting other works in the surrounding area.

Allen Ballard and The Connection Church

There are some great opportunities for churches in our area to partner with Allen in the current works and to be involved in future ones.  There are needs for churches in our area to make summer missions trips to work with him.  The beauty of such trips is that blessings go both ways -- to church planting in Michigan...and to the churches that give of themselves in missions.  In other words, you cannot go wrong, when you partner with the work of the kingdom of God.

Allen left some material with me including a dvd video about the work.  It is available upon your request.
