The Lord has literally brought us through fire and water – come and celebrate with us 118 years of the Lord’s blessing upon the Whosoever Gospel Mission!

Dear Friends in Christ,

Even though we re-opened our men’s dormitory on November 24th, 2008 after rebuilding from the catastrophic arson fire of February 25, 2006, today (September 15th) marks the one year anniversary of operating at our full 50-bed capacity; for safety and staffing reasons, we operated at a reduced capacity until September 15, 2009.  This past year has been a year of challenges and blessings.  But in all things, the Lord has been faithful and good to us!  Your support and friendship are certainly part of His goodness to us.

Please accept my heartfelt invitation to attend our ministry celebration banquet on Saturday, October 23rd at Williamson Restaurant in Horsham, PA.  We’ve moved our banquet to Saturday night to make it easier to attend, and we’ve even lowered the price to $25.00 to encourage as many people as possible to attend.  Our banquet begins at 6:45 p.m. and will end on or before 9:30 p.m..  All of the banquet details are on the banquet invitation posted here on the web.  It would be wonderful to see you at our banquet.  Even with a great meal and program, the one thing that would be missing is you!  Reservations can be made by calling the Mission at (215) 438-3094 x.0 until Monday, October 18th.

Our theme this year is God’s Amazing Grace! Come on out to see and hear firsthand how the Lord has touched and changed forever our graduates, current residents, staff and volunteers with His amazing grace.  Your support and prayers have made you partners with us in the work of the Gospel here in Germantown.  How sweet the sound of God’s amazing grace – you too will enjoy the sweet sound of God’s amazing grace at our banquet.

Your friend and co-worker,

Robert A. Emberger, D.Min.
Executive Director
