We're Baaaack...

Broadway Church of Christ, one of Galveston's greatest "giving" churches, was BACK IN THE BUILDING! This past Sunday, Aug. 29, 2010, marked the first Sunday to be back in the building since Hurricane Ike hit. In 2008, the building at 17th and Broadway collected at least five feet of water, leaving the inside completely in shambles. Only the Lord's communion table was able to be salvaged. Due to extensive giving from brethren all over the world, rebuilding became a possibility. Since then, the Isbells, Mikey and Allen have graciously opened their home for worship. Allen, a practicing trial attorney, has preached for Broadway since 1977 and without accepting a paycheck. Despite some loss, the members are growing spiritually and enthusiastically, and even more loyal to Christ and one another. Plus, more new excitement, as Jason Freed, a full-time Missionary/Evangelist has come to live in Galveston with his wife, Natalie and two kids, Justin (15) and Krista (11) to work and worship with the church. Jason has brought his love for others, a fire for sharing the "Good News" and the Bible Satellite School program (Galveston Bible Institute) which will offer free to credited courses for every book in the Bible, starting soon. The homeless, was a primary mission for the Broadway congregation, serving at least 70 persons every week; participating and accepting a sack meal with accommodations. That great work will gladly resume again soon. In addition, the congregation serves and supports a local full-time prison ministry with Mr. Gene Rowe and several missionaries and mission organizations. Come worship with us this Sunday or any Wednesday evening at 7 or Sunday morning at 11. We will gladly share our love for you and God's holy word.

Loren Winters (16),
put the Lord on in Baptism today. He is one of Justin's friends and attends our Saturday Night Fellowship regularly. We are so thrilled to know this young man and ask that you please pray for him to continue on the right track as his father (one parent household) doesn't encourage his faith and walk with the Lord. Click here to view the video of his baptism. You might need to log in to facebook? Sorry if it is difficult to view. Please contact for possible technical difficulties. Thanks.
