A whole lot of scooping

Communication is not easy in the best of times, it seems more difficult right now than normal.  If we get something wrong or out of place we appreciate kind corrections. If we leave something out there may not be a reason, so, again, let us know, TJI@TheJenkinsInstitute.com. Jeff and I have spent the last few days together working on a number of exciting upcoming efforts that we hope will bless ministers everywhere. Please keep this in your prayers.

Before we head to scoops this quick note from the Lakeshore church in Holland, Michigan is in need of a Large Print Songbook "Praise For The Lord.” These songbooks are currently out of print and our bookstores don’t seem to have them. If anyone has this specific large print songbook, they need one and will pay for it. Please email Mike Scholten lakeshorecoc@yahoo.com or call 616 795-5225.
