Amen. Good morning and welcome. You can be seated. Thank you. I want to welcome those of you that are joining us online. We're so glad that you are. And trust that everyone will be blessed that they did. So before we get started, I want to provide you with an update on our ongoing Maui mission support.

I want to start with a text from Brother Mike Lau on the remaining containers for the benefit of those who may not know about these amazing stevedores there on the waterfront.

I want to give them another shout out, by the way.

These guys are, yeah, amazing.

And these are brothers, man.

These are brothers in the Lord, and God is using them

and has used them in a mighty way to make a way

to get supplies to those with the greatest needs there on Maui.

So I want to just share with you this latest update from Brother Mike.

He says, Aloha, J.D., the last batch of seven 40-foot containers were shipped to and have already arrived on Maui.

We are grateful for the outpouring of love by the amount of supplies dispersed in the last month.

God has been so faithful as he always is.

This is the last of the 50 plus containers we shipped over the last two months,

almost to the day when this happened, which was back on Tuesday, August 8th, and today is

October 8th, so two months to the day. Please thank everyone for all their prayers, for the Lord's guidance and discernment, and please continue to pray for the people of Maui.

Also, last week I updated everyone on Perry and Lori Allen, and as many of you know, Lori went home to be with the Lord a week ago on Friday after

succumbing to burns over 70% of her body. We've come alongside Calvary Chapel Westside and

Pastor Steve Santos there in Lahaina and we are providing financial support to Perry,

who is still here actually on Oahu.

And because of that, we're going to continue with the meal train for him while he's here on the island.

If you're interested, we do have the flyers with the information out front.

And also I mentioned this, first service.
