News around Florida!

Pastors are enjoying great Barbeque from Johnson’s at Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Plant City this past January 19th. Pastor Fred Harrold shared a stirring message about how we struggle with the flesh we live in and how to keep it in check!  Pastor Don Mason was a great host! About 40 attended.

Hawthorne Inn in Lakeland Florida hosted a Pastor and Wife luncheon for APP on January 26^th. Kim Broom and her staff were fabulous! The food was Gourmet Quality and the decorating was perfect! They offer these services to serve the community. We were blessed to see them treat the local Pastors/Wives as Royalty.

Ocala starts All Pro Pastors “Champions Tables” thanks to Pastor Phil Wade of Trinity Baptist Church who hosted a Pastors Luncheon on February 2^nd. He had great inspiration from Pastor Don Grant (who is our 2 time “Day of Play” golf champion). There were over 40 in attendance and 4 of their county commissioners joined us as well. It sounds like 4-6 Tables have already started. Please pray for Phil and Don as they connect many new Pastors together.

Pastor Bob Stone and Fellowship Baptist fed the Pastors a real home-made feast on February 16^th in Valrico Florida. Pastor Fred Harrold  gave another charged up message of challenge and encouragement and Billy Williams gave fresh quarts of strawberries out of his field, to everyone. We praise God for all the many people who  love Pastors and want to see them blessed and inspired to stay strong and healthy!

1^st Baptist in Eagle Lake hosted our February 23^rd Pastors luncheon and impacted the lives of all who there. Kevin Clark shared how his Champions Table is making a difference in his life. Pastor Don Satterwhite hosting the luncheon got started that day with a new Table. It was a tremendous blessing hearing several testimonies how God is moving in many Champion Tables!

Wells Funeral Home in Plant City Florida hosted a beautiful Pastors luncheon in their new Event Center on Thursday March 15^th. We were all amazed at how accommodating the facilities were for such an event. The staff there led by Verna McKelvin, went above the call of duty to make all the Pastors and their wives feel at home.

We want to again thank all the churches, event centers, pastors and directors for opening your hearts and facilities to your local Pastors and for giving the best gift of all, the gift of love. Thank you and God’s blessings be upon you! 

Africa on the Move

Pastor Peter Simwa the new APP Ambassador in Kenya has started 5 new Champion Tables in Eldoret.

This is Pastor Peters Champions Table. He also made a trip to Uganda in February and met with Pastor Patrick Ogoda who has already started 11 Champion Tables there. He has received requests from Congo Pastors as well to help them get Champion Tables started. Praise God!!

Pastor Rogatien Nze from Orlando made a trip to Libreville,Gabon (his home town) last year with a specific purpose to introduce All Pro Pastors to the Pastors. Last week I finally had an opportunity to visit with him along with Pastor Dwight Edwards. It was amazing to hear how the Pastors cried when he started sharing about the Champion Tables and the friendships that are started.  He shared that he would like for us to go there to help bring this message to the Pastors and to encourage them.

Bishop Ebenezer Sefah  from Takoradi Ghana came to a Pastors luncheon in Bartow in 2010. He later sent us an e-mail which said.  (It was a blessing meeting you at Pastor David White Church in Bartow Fl. I would like to inform you that we have started the Champion group in Ghana-Africa and it’s really helping the Pastors here, Thank you for introducing me to this idea. It really helps.) Bishop Ebenezer was back in the USA in January and reported all is going very well.
Pastor Olutunji Tom-Wright of Nigeria  brought in Pastor Mike Ayanbode from Nigeria to his church in Tampa. They came to our APP luncheon in Plant City and took a large amount of Champion Table brochures to take back to Nigeria with a commitment to start the Ministry there as well.

Each of these Pastors are hungry to see their fellow Pastors unite and build trust with one another. Many have invited All Pro Pastors to come to encourage, instruct and share God’s Word. Please pray for them and for God’s guidance for APP as we seek His specific will in how to best serve.
