Mayor Tekesha Ann Martinez, Aaron Brooks, Bill and Dagmar Yount
A Praise For Our City
Dagmar and I were honored to be invited by our Mayor Tekesha Ann Martinez of Hagerstown, Maryland, to participate in Aaron Brooks "Homecoming of Hope" Day on Saturday, September 7th. Aaron Brooks, from our city, recently won the Bronze Medal for Wrestling at the Paris Olympics. He's a strong Christian believer who gives all the glory and honor to Jesus Christ. I was asked to blow the shofar at the beginning of Aaron's autograph signing while he was greeted by cheerleaders
and friends. It was the longest time I've ever blown the shofar as the cheering continued for Aaron. The shofar is a Jewish instrument blown on special occasions.
At noon the Celebration continued at the Meritus Baseball Stadium. Aaron was given a key to our city by the Mayor. He shared that losing isn't something to get discouraged about and quit; it's something we learn from. He said losing will never define him for his greatest reward remains
in Heaven. He closed by reading 1 Corinthians Chapter 13 and what God says about love. He said that his greatest goal in life is to love, honor and respect people and lead them to Jesus. I believe it was a historic day in our city and for generations to come. God loves Hagerstown, Maryland and greater things are yet to come in our city. Believe this for your city also.
What a blessing it's been getting to know Mayor Tekesha Ann Martinez and the
privilege of praying for her.
Dear Friends,
We have sensed a marked increase in warfare as we go out to minister and even after we arrive back home. We have learned that this opposition only confirms the increasing presence and anointing of the Lord that we are experiencing in our meetings. Thank you so much for covering us in prayer. We pray for you also that together, we will continue
to wrestle to win the Eternal Gold tried by fire. "Pure gold put in the fire comes out of it proved pure; genuine faith put through this suffering comes out proved genuine. When Jesus wraps this all up, it's your faith, not your gold, that God will have on display as evidence of his victory." 1 Peter 1:7 (MSG.)
