Baptist Church
Llano, Texas
"In the Hill Country of Texas"

In the heart of the "Texas Hill Country" and under
the vast Texas ski, Llano finds its roots and great heritage. With
a population of around 3,700, Pastor Dale Strawn has labored for the
work of the Lord for over 11 years. The membership has entered
into and completed a challenging building program with a new building of
approximately 12,000 sq feet and paid in full.

From a humble and outgrown facility, the church has
relocated and built one of the finest buildings you can image for the
work of the ministry.
I had the most wonderful joy, thrill and privilege
of being here for the dedication of this work. In the past I have
stood on the barren ground, then on the cement slab under the red iron.
Then to stand in the finished building was nothing short than seeing the
hand of God's goodness.
Vacation
Bible School
2010
It is just about an annual thing to do the
Vacation Bible School at Bible Baptist Church. It was a great time
of fun and spiritual joy in the Lord. Usually when we think of VBS
we think of children. But here VBS is FAMILY VBS. Young and
old alike joined in the games, the singing and Bible lessons. How
exciting to meet new folks since the last time I was here and to see
many of the faithful still in service for the Lord.

This church was made for preaching!! A
comfortable auditorium, adequate lighting and well equipped sound system
combined with a people whose hearts the Lord has touched, made the VBS
and Sunday Services very special. Souls were saved and baptized.
The weather was good -- a bit on the warm
side as it was 100 degrees each day. Not too far from us it did
hit 113. So was nice to be in the cooler zone.

The church over looks the city and is at one
of the highest points in the area. You can't help but wonder how
many lost souls will die and never know the love of the Lord nor of His
saving grace.
It is the vision of Pastor and people to
reach this needy area with a strong witness and testimony.
Each
night before I preached Mrs. Souza told a missionary story related how the power of God was seen in those lives surrendered
to Him in far away places.
Mrs. Souza has a very special way of telling
a story that keeps the interest of all ages. I am always glad to
have her be part of my ministry.

A few other churches came and joined us in
reaching out to lost souls and strengthen believers.

The bus was put to good use during VBS.
The VBS ran from Sunday Night to Friday
Night. Several were saved in response to the preaching of the Word
of God.
Many, both child and adult, were at the altar
and the Lord touched deeply within our hearts. Amid the tears were
smiles of joy as lives were changed.
I guess now is as good as
time as any to admit that once again the GIRLS won the Penny
March. But the Boys were close - We won some battles but lost
the war. Right up the end the Boys had the lead ... but
girls had a great come back!!
Wait until NEXT year!! |

Each night, those who came, brought their Bible, said their
memory verse or brought a guess got to earn "Bible Baptist Bucks" which
could be redeemed at the prize table each night.
All the children worked hard to earn as many "Bible Baptist Bucks" as
they could to buy the things they wanted.
