Ministry Update on Satisfied Tour

Hey Ya’ll,
I have had an incredible time on the Satisfied Tour with DecembeRadio. We have met some wonderful people along the way including two bands: “Seven Glory” and “Ruth”. All of the members of the bands are great guys. They are the real deal with a message to share. Everyone on the tour seems to have a servant heart and humble spirit.
Calvary Chapel in Kernersville, NC was great. The concert was right on. The people from the church are some of the most servant-minded people I have ever met. They are a true reflection of their pastor, David (Awesome Man of God). What a ministry. God is doing some powerful things through that church. They really minister to broken lives and have a heartbeat for outreach and ministry. I give a shout out to all my new friends there. You blessed my socks off.
The Alliance Church in Auburn, NY was our next stop. Wendy and the crew did a phenomenal job at organizing the concert. All of the volunteers worked so hard to make things go so smoothly. The youth there blessed me. They have such a hunger and desire to reach out.
I want to encourage them to keep on keeping on. Thanks to the church leadership who had a vision to see the concert happen. I know that God is going to continue to bless that church as they continue pursuing opportunities to share Jesus beyond their comfort zone. We saw many lives changed that evening. God worked in so many ways. Praise the Lord!
First Baptist in Portland, Maine was a blessing as well. Once again, God moved in a powerful way. Thank the Lord for some wonderful people who really want to reach out to hurting souls. God used them in a mighty way. Thanks to all the volunteers and the different churches that came together to make it all happen.
We are getting ready to leave Bangor/ Brewer, Maine and head toward Maryland via New York. We are thinking about going into the city since we have some down-time. We will then head toward Maryland to do ministry later on this week.
If you are near Roanoke, VA, don’t forget the concert on Saturday night. We would love to see you there.
We will head for Harrisburg, PA for a concert Sunday evening. I can’t wait to see what God has in store for us there.
Again, the tour has been a blessing so far. Meeting more of God’s family is always a blessing. Spending time with the guys has been like old times. We have enjoyed doing ministry together once again. The greatest reward has been seeing the altar filled with people seeking hope and truth.
I would like to thank “Not of This World” for the endorsement. This is a wonderful Christian Company that I am very fond of. They have some awesome clothing. They have kept me in style on this tour with some great shirts. I thank the Lord for a company that truly witnesses for our Lord. I urge you to check them out.
Please pray for the bus. We are having some heat pump issues. (Maybe a fan?) Regardless, God is taking care of us. Continue to pray for him to watch over us and the bus. Pray for protection for the other bands as they travel as well.
We also have to praise God for the 220 plus people who gave their lives to Christ during Mortality Room (House of Martyrs) at LampLight Theatre. There were also over 600 Christians that renewed their walk of faith. God used this drama to stir up hearts to be bold in their witness.
Stay tuned for updates from the tour and back at home. Thanks for the words of encouragement and prayer. We need you to continue as we share the gospel.

Love ya…
Billy Wayne

Pray for my dad and his siblings as they have lost their sister, Pauline. They do have the promise of seeing her again, but the loss is still hard. I wish I could have been there for them during this time of loss, but they have been so encouraging and understanding of what I am doing. I have a great family. God has brought us a long way.

What wonderful testimonies about what the Lord is doing in the lives of his saints. I will continue to lift you all up in personal prayers.
Great things are going on here in Hinton. My friend Rita and I will be installed as Pastors of New Beginnings Intercessory Ministries of Hinton on December 15,2008 at 5:00 pm. The scripture says "Do not despise the days of humble beginnings" I am honored to be in God's service whether he uses me in a small way or in a great way.
