It is a blessing to have you in worship with us today. We trust that you
will witness the presence of God among us and join us in lifting up the
name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Our hearts desire to grow disciples to reach a needy world with the love
of Christ. Thanks for being a part of this effort through your prayers,
giving, and Christian service.
May God richly bless you.
Pastor Robert J. Anderson, Jr.
To the Colonial Family from Jenine Melton, and the Chance/Melton
family:
I would like to thank my Colonial Baptist family for your support during my
18th month deployment in Afghanistan. Your cards, care packages and most
importantly your prayers were very much appreciated. It means more than I can
ever express in words. There were many times that I had to request “SOS"
prayers due to the frequent efforts of the enemy forces to destroy the compound
where I worked and resided. I Praise God that the attacks were thwarted and that
God put his shield of angels around the compound. He redirected their bombs
every time. Hallelujah !! The Colonial family truly demonstrated love in action.
It is my prayer that the Lord will richly reward all of you for your many acts of
loving kindness and that he will continue to use the Colonial family to reach the
world for Christ.

2
Blessed be the name of the LORD
from this time forth and forevermore!
3
From the rising of the sun to its setting,
the name of the LORD is to be praised!
4
The LORD is high above all nations,
and his glory above the heavens!
5
Who is like the LORD our God,
who is seated on high,
6
who looks far down
on the heavens and the earth?
7
He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
8
to make them sit with princes,
with the princes of his people.
Together
9
He gives the barren woman a home,
making her the joyous mother of children.
Praise the LORD!

Thank You! The Chance/ Melton family also join our daughter in expressing
our sincere thanks for your faithfulness, words of encouragement, support
and constant prayers which will continue to be our greatest weapon. Words are
inadequate to capture our appreciation and thanks. There were many tense
moments during Jenine's deployment, but God answered the many individual and
corporate prayers of the saints. As the word says in James 5:16 the effectual and
fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Again, we thank you and thank
our lord for allowing us to be a member of a loving and caring church. We are
living witnesses that Colonial's motto is true " Colonial is a place where Jesus is
exalted, the bible is explained, people are loved and disciples are made"
Hebrews 6:10 " For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love
which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the
saints, and do minister." In His love, The Chance and Melton Family
