Family! What an amazing day this past Sunday was! If you missed it, we baptized seven people. We are continuing to reach people with the life changing reality of Jesus Christ. I know there are still more people out there that want to get baptized. Please send an email to info@wellsbranchchurch.com to be included in our March baptisms. Many of…
February has been an incredible time. We experienced an amazing Flag football tournament on Super Bowl Sunday. Thanks to Grayson Dzialo, Ben Dion, and the host of others who made that all happen! This past weekend, we ventured out to prison in Lockhart. The band played and people wept as for a moment lonely souls fraught with disappointment were transported…
by Chris Plekenpol You heard the testimony of Duche this weekend about how someone visited him while he was in prison. It was incredible. I promise you, you will have interactions with people like Duche that need Jesus. Last April we did the same thing, and I was able to lead 5 people personally to a decision for Christ. Please…
By Chris Plekenpol Over the holidays I was asked this question. How can someone say, “You are going to Hell and I love you in the same breath?” I think that is a common question. How can anyone be so arrogant to say that another person is going to Hell and then have the audacity to say, “I love you.”?…
Just a reminder that we have a couple Potlucks to attend this weekend. Tonight (Saturday November 17) from 6-8 at the Rec Center. We have an opportunity to engage all of Wells Branch and invite them to our church the following day. Meat will be provided by Branch BBQ. The WB MUD encouraged everyone to bring a dish to serve…

by Chris Plekenpol We had an exciting day, yesterday. Several WBCC members had been praying for our friend Tom specifically, and yesterday was his day of salvation. It all started a couple weeks ago when Brawn Lide (one of our esteemed elders) were having coffee outside of Kenny’s on Friday morning after an elder meeting. We were talking about websites,…
Tom Dahm and I were at Starbucks about to leave, when a woman noticed I was wearing a Live For More! shirt. She stared at me and I wasn’t sure if I had something on my face or what, but then she pointed in my direction and exclaimed, “Who are you? Your shirt. What is your shirt?”
by Chris Plekenpol In our culture and probably many others, lying is an art form. I’ve told many a grandparent or relative that I loved something they gave me for Christmas, while wondering what decade the sweater had been warped from. Even wrote thank you cards for it. I have lied about how well someone sang, spoke, or played. I…
by Chris Plekenpol I hate being lost. Especially when I’m late. I’m not sure if I hate asking for directions more than being lost. It’s not that I’m overly bashful, it’s more that I don’t trust someone that I don’t know to give me good directions. I think, “That guy will never see me again, what’s to say he won’t…
