| WBT F.O.C.A.S. - Lake Norman, North Carolina |
|
 It
was hot in Lewisville Texas in May which gave Conny Jenkins an
idea. So for the next few weeks she made over 200 gel neck
coolers for the field of anglers in the Lake Norman North
Carolina. The 'Cool Hugs from FOCAS' were given out free along
with a Christian tract at the registration. Jen Carroll treated
the group to a solo and Susan Dameron shared her testimony.
Denese Freeman provided guitar music for the group praise songs.
 The devotion was given by Sunny Carpenter who gave away free
inspiration stones with various inspirational words etched in
each one. (Look for her story that goes along with the stones in
a future article.) The group is growing in membership and
attendance. Conny said she "knows God is working and blessing
people" through the FOCAS group.
Sunny Carpenter tells story about the
Inspiration Stones
The next FOCAS meeting will be at 5:30 PM immediately following
the registration. The membership patches and certificates are in
for those who joined in Lewisville. The patches will be
available for pick up prior to the start of the FOCAS meeting.
 Susan
Dameron's testimony follows:
Hello! My name is Susan Dameron. I am a co-angler with the WBT.
I am from Chattanooga, Tennessee. My husband, Don, and I just
celebrated 22 years of marriage, and I feel privileged to be
able to say that I know he loves me as Christ loves the church.
We have two wonderful teenage boys Drew, 18 years old, and
Derek, 15 years old. I am a housewife and have been a homeschool
mom for the last nine years. I would like to share with you all
how I came to know Christ as my Savior.
I
grew up an only child in a home plagued with the problems that
stem from alcoholism. My dad was a good man, a tough man, and
had high expectations. He was a workaholic and an alcoholic. I
never questioned my dad’s love for me. I knew he loved me, but
he couldn’t express that love easily so we were not very close
during my childhood. My dad was a Christian and would tell you
himself that he had made some poor lifestyle decisions. My mom
worked hard to keep our lives together as a family doing her
best to help my dad and I along in our relationship. I am
sharing this with you only because I wouldn’t have a testimony
without it. I went through my childhood with a constant hurt and
confusion, and when I was a Junior in high school my parents
finally separated and divorced. It was around this same time
that I was invited to go to Bible camp with a friend and
accepted Christ as my savior. I had been searching for something
to fill a great void that I had in my life, but didn’t know what
I was searching for until I heard of God’s love. I found the Dad
that I needed and had wanted more than anything. I had someone
to hold hands with during the fun times or when I needed
courage. I had someone who would nudge me out of my comfort zone
but be standing there with me to encourage me in case I failed.
I could close my eyes and imagine sitting in His lap with His
loving arms around me – a safe haven. I could talk to Him about
anything and when given enough time He would guide me with an
answer.
I could easily have turned to drugs and alcohol but felt that I
had already experienced enough of that. I was more excited about
having a Dad who could show me His love even though I couldn’t
really see Him – just the thought was enough to hang on to. I
knew in my heart He was real. As I began to study the Bible and
learn more about God and our relationship, I began to understand
what a wonderful thing had been set before me, and I had
accepted. I really had no idea in the beginning how good it was
going to be, but I chose to open my heart and my mind to
everything about Him. It wasn’t going to hurt to search through
it compared to the pain and disappointment that I had
experienced through my life. Some important things that I
learned about were unconditional love, honoring our parents, and
forgiveness. Because of these things, my earthly dad and I,
after many years of prayer and a silent love, were able to
finally have the relationship God created us to have as father
and daughter. Dad became a reformed alcoholic four and one-half
years ago and we were so very proud of him as he was of himself.
Tragically, he died in a car accident in October 2005. Because I
know that we both accepted Christ as our Savior, I can know that
we will see each other again one day. My prayer is that each of
you will find, as I have, the love, peace, and hope that comes
from a relationship with our heavenly Father.
