Well, another year has come and gone. And once again we were limited on candidates for office. Were you there? Do you know who is in office? Do you care? Please don't take this the wrong way. (But) We need all your help, all the time, to make this organization, one we all can be proud of. Rev. Geary Bowers, from Harvest Time worship Center, was appointed as the new editor for the news letter. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at RevGeary@ifgci.com .
I want to thank Bro. Mel and Sis. Alice Wilson from the Rock House II Ministry. May God bless you and your church. You and your Staff went out of your way to make everyone of us feel as if we were at home. Bless Bro. Ben and his wife for all the work and time they put into making everything so wonderfull. May God keep them safe for all time to come. We also would like to thank the band "Ten Fold" from the Black Oak church from Gary, Indiana. God Bless and keep the faith.
Oh! Did I forget to tell you about the food? Well if you were there I won't have to. If you were not, well so sorry!
Bro. Dennis Cromwell from Harvest Time Worship Center conducted the evening service, if you were not there you missed a great sermon. The Holy Spirit was there in all his glory. Saturday morning we went over the Laws and by-laws, and election of officers. Saturday afternoon, Bro Dennis and Bro. Jerry had the honor of ordaining our good brother, Rev. Alan Dickerson, from Rock House II ministry. May out good Lord guide and protest you all the days of your life. (Do for God as he would do for you)

The 2007 Indiana State convention
Friday Oct. 12th
The evening fellowship was great; Rev Dennis Cromwell brought forth a message of unity and healing. A message about how the church seems to miss the mark frequently. A message of what God has called us all to and what God has called us out of. The true direction of the church is always toward restoration of the kingdom.
Rock House II provided refreshments and the fellowship was good. A special thank you to Brother and Sister Wilson. I want to also send a thank you to Brother Ben, a true servant of God.
Saturday Oct 13th

He Did -He Can -He Will!
The God that stopped the sun on high;
And sent the manna from the sky;
Laid flat the walls of Jericho;
And put to flight old Israel's foe;
Why can't He answer prayer today,
And drive each storm cloud away?
Who turned the water into wine;
And healed the helpless cripple's spine;
Commanded tempests, "Peace, be still:"
And hungry multitudes did fill;
His power is just the same today;
So, why not labor, watch, and pray?
He conquered hi the lion's den;
Raised Lazarus back to life again;
He heard Elijah's cry for rain;
And freed the sufferer from pain —
If He could do those wonders then,
Let's prove our mighty God again!
Why can't the God who raised the dead;
Gave little David Goliath's head;
Cast out demons with a word;
Yet sees the fall of one wee bird;
Do signs and miracles today,
In that same, good, old-fashioned way?
HE CAN! HE'S JUST THE SAME TODAY!
