These have been exceptionally busy days! We are seeing a lot of people coming to our Retreat Centers for times of refreshing and instructions. We had a family and a large group of leaders from Sam Houston State University here during the Lone Star Shoot Out Tournament. They were afforded special consideration from our County Commissioner to have an event on the Front Beach and several of the students had never been in salt water. The following week, we had a group from Fort Worth here and they had a great time fishing and relaxing to renew their bodies and spirits for special activities they had planned.

This past weekend was a very busy but rewarding one. On Friday, we observed our  youngest grandson’s, Layne’s Birthday – he turned four (4). The great party was scheduled and attended by about 30 folks and was a lot of fun! They all wanted to see Grandma’s new car.  Pastor Joane now has the car of her dreams – a 2019 VW Beattle! When you see this pretty, blue VW running around here, give her a big “howdy!” She has told me for years that she wanted one and now she is enjoying!

We had a smaller Retreat with some leadership ladies from San Houston this past weekend and they enjoyed an inspirational instructive time on our campus. One of the ladies told me that she will never forget POC because she had never seen such a beautiful cross. We have learned that it can easily been seen from the Island as well as the Big Jetty. Again, we sincerely appreciate all who have contributed to the Cross project and when we complete just two (2) more steps, we will have a big dedication.

The months of September and October are quite busy with planned events. There are several Retreats scheduled, some business trips planned, and spiritual renewal conferences to attend. Your continued love and supportive prayers will help us continue this important work.  Yes, we are still gleaning fish and giving away food to needy families – the pantry is alive and very active. We continue having fellowship meals for the community each Wednesday at 7 PM. We are committed to making Port O’Connor the best community we can!

Fisherman’s Chapel is an interdenominational congregation. We celebrate Jesus each Sunday at the Bible Class at 10 AM, the Morning Service at 11 AM, and the Sunday evening service at 6 PM., and on Wednesdays. as previously mentioned, at 7 PM. One will always find a warm welcome at the Chapel and all are urged to, “Come Grow With Us!”
