    Hey Pastor Skelly, wow, I love the site. Really enjoyed reading about the conferences that you go to, seeing how God uses our Pastor is encouraging. Your current book sounds interesting, can’t wait for the upcoming review. Real bloggers don’t use their real names. lol

    Our family is making a trip to the property this weekend Lord willing. We saw the recent pics on the web site this morning. God has brought HBC a long way from a roach infected store front. Praise Him. He’s AWESOME

    Hi Preacher!! Just checking out the website and the progress on the building.
    WOW…Praise the Lord for the gifts and His Blessings!! Dan and I want to be there for the opening…any idea when that might be?? Have to plan now for our schedules to come together. We are praying for the ministries there and for you, Wanda and kids.
    PS: Our church in Duncansville had a Great week of VBS with 5 kids trusting Christ and 2 adults got saved that over the past year we have been praying for them. Praise God! It is exciting to see Him work in our lives!! Love to all…Dan and Donna

    Hey Kurt Skelley,
    I just wanted to give you and TREMENDOUS, HUGE, THANK YOU from the Valley Forge Baptist teen group, up in PA. You speaking at the winter retreat(skiing) was an answer to my prayers to see my youth group on FIRE for the Lord!! the change is just beyond words. and its great to see the change has lasted as it has for this long. and just as you preached, there are so many teens STANDING UP FOR CHRIST especially in some of the boys which is a huge step in our group..you have changed my spiritual life personally and many in my youth group. it is amazing to see the work that God has done through you. but of course “this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes!” just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU. and i hope to hear you again. you were a tremedous encouragement and i hope to see you speak at my graduation..btw (by the way) thats in 2012…haha that was just a heads up!! =)

    Hey! My youth group in Tennessee went to Triple S Camp in June the week you were preaching there. I just wanted to thank you for helping me turn my life around. Although I had been in a Christian family all my life, at camp I realized that I knew a lot ABOUT GOD, but I didn’t truly KNOW HIM.
    My family and I recently had a chance to visit HBC for the first time while we were in PA over the summer. We loved it! The church family was very warm and friendly. God is really doing a phenomenal work through this church!I am excited to hear about your building project! Looks awesome! May God continue to bless you all!

    Hello Pastor,

    Pastor Skulley,
    WOW. So sorry when we visited the Motes’ a few weeks ago we couldn’t make a service. I did ask Patti to see the new building on her way to school, and as we took off to return to CT, and we were forbidden to see the inside. Now from the website I can see why. This is amazing what the Lord has done through your life. And what is more I know IT IS ALL GENUINELY GOD’S WORKING. I’m sure you’ve been warned and will be, be sure to check pride at this juncture. It fells the best of us when we least expect it to pounce.
    I wanted to share a dvd with you of an excellent evangelist, and now I see it is online. Please take the time to investigate this. Like yours, his ministry is filled with excellence, and it is obvious when seeing his website. His recent composition is truly God-sent: “I’ll Pray Again”
    Especially take time to hear it. You will hunger to have him in your church either for a patriotic emphasis, or more significantly HIS MUSIC material. If you ask Pastor Rowley, or his son-in-law Pastor Harper (a personal friend, Ben said one of 3 above all others — and he has over 1200 on Facebook!) abaout the message on music he preached at our church, they will each tell you what kind of evangelist Ben Everson is!
    Here are the links, and if you’d like a copy of it as he preached at TBC just ask me for it.
    Ben Everson, http://www.biblerevival.com/ and his YouTube videos are at
    http://www.youtube.com/user/beneverson77 There are songs including the I’ll pray again” as well as his promotional one, but the place to watch it is at the biblerevival site.
    I use this email to get missionary prayer letters and requests for urgent prayers.
    Thanks for all you are in Christ,
    Br. Pat Ps 40:3; 19.9 http://www.glorycarpetcleaning.com/
