Praise in the Park!


I would like to invite you to be a part of an event that we are calling "Praise in the Park". On June 19, 2010, "First Praise" of Worland First Baptist Church will be hosting this praise event for our Lord. "Praise in the Park" will be held at Sander's Park from 4-7 pm. Our focus will be to praise and worship our Lord Jesus Christ. Our interim pastor, Pastor Dale Bascue, will be bringing us a message after our time in worship and singing. Please remember to bring the following to the event:

1) Bring your family and friends, especially those that may not be saved.

2) Bring your Bibles for the message, and voices to sing praises.

3) Bring a picnic dinner for your individual family and friends (Beverages will be provided.)

4) Bring your lawn chairs, blankets, sunscreen.... normal stuff you would take to a picnic.

5) Children, bring your favorite park entertainment: football, frisbee, baseball mitts, etc.

We at First Baptist hope that you will be a part of this event. We pray that you will be blessed and that the Lord over all will be blessed. We look forward to seeing you there.

Congratulations to All Graduates!


It's been 25 years since I graduated from high school. Okay....you can do the math! Anyway, I want to extend my warmest congratulations to all of the graduates this year. It is so hard to believe that the school year has gone by so quickly! Congratulations Class of 2010!
In my own family, my son Jacob, will be graduating from 8th grade tonight from the middle school. He is looking forward to high school next year as a freshman.

I am looking forward to having both a freshman and senior at Worland High School next year. I am so excited especially for all the high school games, namely football! Wow! Varsity football on Friday nights and Freshman football on Saturdays!
To all our graduates....my God richly bless you! Be safe and trust in the Lord!

Where is this year going?

I sit here just wondering where the year has gone. It is so hard to believe that we are now in the month of May. There have been so many things going on, including changes. Here are 10 thoughts that come to mind:


1) God is still with us. He never changes!!!!!

2) We are gathering the search committee together, and praying that the Lord will show us the right pastor with the right fit for First "B" to be revealed to us soon.

3) The ending of another school year is now quickly approaching. My son Caleb will be a senior next year. Jacob will be a freshman. Joshua will be in his last year of elementary school as a 5th grader. Sandra will be glad to end her school year of swimming all year. Me? I will be ending my 20th year of teaching. God is so good!!!

4) It so good to see green grass growing again. Not the dandelions though! I hope I can get my sprinklers working again correctly. Winter can really be harsh on them, even after blowing them out with a compressor! Almost ready to plant some flowers with Sandra too. I will be planting trees today.

5) Baby goats and baby lamb are finally starting to get weaned, almost ready for sale.

6) Baseball season is starting up in Worland again. My boys are gearing up! I just wish we had Legion ball for Caleb. He may do some umpiring. I can't wait for the crack of the bat, ground in clay in the uniforms, yelling for the team......spitting sunflower seeds and drinking pop during the games.

7) Time to rototill and prepare for planting the garden.

8) It's about time that I get my fishing license. I can't wait to start slaying the trout again!

9) I hope to get out a lot more and get some more exercise. The weather is starting to warm up slowly...just can't wait to see more 70 degree weather. It's the best in Wyoming!

10) I hope to do more exploring in the mountains....The Big Horns with the family!

Well spring is here....with summer right around the corner! Thank you Lord. We'll see what tomorrow brings!
