Canyon View Baptist Church

Michael Childers
Montrose, CO

We were still tired from camp on Thursday night, but the Lord blessed us with a great service at Bro. Childers' church in beautiful Montrose. The people there were so sweet and encouraging and we were so glad we went. On the way out of our hotel, we ran into a family that the Dustmans knew but had not seen in years. Dean Miller was a pastor in Colorado Springs for years, and recently his son, Matt took over the work there. It was him, his wife and four kids that we met and they were on their way to our service! Bro. Matt is good friends with Bro. Childers and he ended up preaching at Bro. Childers' request. He preached a wonderful message on the things that were less blessed to give than receive: criticism, revenge, and unkind words. Many were stirred by the message and nearly the whole congregation came to the altar afterwards. We thank the Lord for using Bro. Miller to encourage this wonderful Pastor and church.

Thank you Pastor Childers and church for your sweet spirit and kindness to us during our time in Montrose. We appreciated all the hospitality. We will pray for you when the Lord brings you to our minds.
