PASTOR’S PARAGRAPHS:
While on a short-term mission trip, Pastor Jack Hinton was leading worship at a leper colony on the island of Tobago. A woman who had been facing away from the pulpit turned around. “
“It was the most hideous face I had ever seen,” Hinton said. “The woman’s nose and ears were entirely gone. She lifted a fingerless hand in the air and asked, ‘Can we sing Count Your Many Blessings?’”
Overcome with emotion, Hinton left the service. He was followed by a team member who said, “I guess you’ll never be able to sing that song again.”
“Yes I will,” he replied, “but I’ll never sing it the same way.”
There is a lot wrong with the world. We all have a lot we can complain about. This election seems to only augment the reality of what bad shape our society is in. But in the midst of it all, we are so blessed! Let us never forget that, and let us always remember to give honor, glory and thanksgiving to our God and to His Son, Jesus Christ. Our relationship with Him alone is worthy of daily songs of praise. May we “count our blessings” not only this Thanksgiving, but every day of our lives.
With Love, Pastor Scott

Thank You note from Bev Dawson
Dear Spinning Road Family,
I am writing again with my right hand, but am just beginning therapy on my shoulder. Thank you for all your prayers as I recover from this unexpected detour. How great to know that this didn’t surprise our Lord, and that this is His path for me!
Thank you too for your faithful prayer and financial support for so many years. Please continue to pray that Wapishana speakers will grow deeper in their understanding of God’s word and His plan for their lives. I appreciate your prayers for me as well that I will know which need to fulfill here at Wycliffe JAARS Center where I am basing.
In Christ’s Fellowship, Bev Dawson
