July 20: Tom & Carol Lee Bell, Blodgett Mills, NY
Blodgett Mills is just below Cortland, NY, about halfway between Syracuse and Binghamton. The area is one of rolling hills and dairy farms. Cortland is an old manufacturing city, but some of the industries have closed.
Blodgett Mills is just a little village, and the Church of Blodgett Mills is the only church in the village. We are not that far from lots of other churches, but the ones we are seeking would not go down the road to visit a church outside the community.
Praise the Lord that in our 3½ years here, the church has been able to make quite a few improvements to the church and parsonage. We want to keep things up to attract new people and be a good testimony in the community.
Pray that our people will be a testimony to their friends & neighbors. Pray for more involvement in the life of the church.
