Testimonies
Our first testimony is actually in the form of a fairly long letter we received. Click on the

shorter, and can be viewed directly on our web site below.
Words cannot express our gratitude for giving of yourself to help God perform a miracle. To see
the building "Just Bloom" before our eyes was awesome, but to see the sweet spirit of all of the
team members was awesome as well. Our God is an awesome God and works in mysterious
ways. His wonders to perform and He allows those who are willing to get in on what He is doing.
So, thank you for who you serve, who you are and what you have done. We will never forget.

Let me tell you without any reservation that we could not have done our first building in the
time frame and cost factor without their help. However, the greatest treasure we will take from
the summer is not the building but the new friends and family that we have found.

Awesome work this group does! My first trip was this past June in Akron, OH. We did a lot of
work, all to the Glory of God! Looking forward to the next trip(s)!

Greetings in the name of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ! God Bless you all on a wonderful
and blessed job you've done on Heaven's Gate church. I live in Akron, Ohio and I was truly inspired
by all the people working together in the name of Christ. I was wondering how you decide who to
help build their church. I attend a small church that is falling apart and we've been praying and
praying that God blesses us with a newer bigger church. We know that nothing is too hard for God!
Builders for Christ I wish you all the blessing you have not room enough to recieve! You are doing
a good work, keep it up in the mighty name of Jesus! Thank God for you!

Builder's for Christ, I just wanted to tell you all again how great it was to work and have fellowship
with you all. We saw great work accomplished this week. I was very blessed by the experience of
working with the mechanical team, and I look forward to working with the other teams in the
weeks that come. With the help of God we will see this church finished to the end. Thank you all
again for your kindness and uplifting enthusiasm. Hope to see you all in Georgia next year.

I just wanted to write and say that I am blessed to see your tender hearts working in the name
of the Lord. Building churches to spread the word and working indefinitely for a greater purpose is
exciting. I drive past the current site you are working on (Heavens Gate Church in Akron, Ohio)
and I am blessed every morning. Continue in your steadfastness and the blessings will always
continue to pour out abundantly.

WOW! What an awesome week we had in Blairsville! It was wonderful getting our "family"
back together and with new additions. The HOP choir, Beloved, Living Proof, etc. were so inspiring
and revitalizing! What a blessing to share the week and the work with such wonderful people - all
to HIS glory! Can't wait to see you all next year!

I went on the trip to Waynesville Ohio and took my 9 year old son and a friend of his. We
enjoyed this trip very much. I have never felt so complete and fulfilled and I did this time I spent
with the Builders for Christ . I took my son so he could see what we are here for . The first night
we got back from Ohio, my son came to my bedside and touched my arm and said with tears in
his eyes, Momma I don't want to be here at home I want to go back to Ohio and sleep in the
church. I just grabbed him and hugged him and said ,I know I want to go back to and he laid down
beside me I just wrapped my arms around him and listened to him as wondered about his new
friend Bailey he had met and wondered if she missed us to? I knew at that moment taking him and
letting him see what the Builders For CHRIST were all about was the best thing I could have done
for him. Thanks for being exactly what you proclaim to be. "Builders for CHRIST". You are helping
to build more than just buildings.

To every volunteer who works all day in a hot and dirty place where not everything goes
perfectly. Thank you. To every volunteer who gets up tired the next morning and every muscle is
so sore and stiff because of hard work and difficult movements the hot day before. Thank you.
One day your "Well done faithful servant" will be a wonderful "Thank you."
Alwyn W.
Keep up the good work. Went to Warren, PA to help them build their church 20 years ago.
Enjoyed the experience and fellowship. Been with Bellsouth for 31 years. Will retire in less than
three years and plan to go with some Builders for Christ.
John W.
Wow!! I just returned from Tigersville, SC after the most wonderful time of my life. I would
like to thank God for the oppertunity to serve and help build His kingdom. The fellowship was truly
amazing and the experience was unforgettable. I pray for all the folks at Mount Pleasant Baptist
Church and I know God will use them to grow the body of Christ in awesome ways. I can't wait to
head to Sugar Valley Baptist Church next June to serve God's kingdom and help grow the body of
Christ even more. Get ready Sugar Valley 'cause here we come!!!!
Mike B.
You guys are such a blessing! Just from you coming to our church at Mount Pleasant and us
gathering as brothers and sisters in Christ was just such a blessing to me and my Husband! You
ALL always had a wonderful smile on your face the nights of revival (EVEN AFTER A VERY HARD
DAY'S WORK!!) I just wanted to say how much of a blessing that you have been to my family and
the Church family of Mount Pleasant! WE LOVE YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
Melissa B.
I am a member of Unity Baptist in Millington, TN. I just wanted to say thanks for everything
you did in helping our church. I thank God everyday for you all. I hope one day to be able to return
the favor.
Stacy H.
To see a building go up in 5 days is incredible.To see the way GOD uses his people is a
testimony within itself.I thank God for each and everyone that came that gave up a week of their
time to see a place of worship be built.God amazes me how good he is to his children even when
we go astray. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOR BEING WILLING TO COME.
Bobby M.
My dear brothers and sisters, thanks be to God for His gifts. You have shared yours and the
promise is that you are blessed in doing so. As the Pastor of the church in Millington, I have to say
that the time spent with BFC/ the Master's Builders was a time fo great encouragement to Unity
Baptist. My prayer is that God would continue to bless you and use you for His ends. He is over all,
and I have witnessed that He worked through you all. Soli Deo Gloria.
Shaun S.
Talk about high on JESUS!!! After spending several days with The Masters Builders, then
going on to a World Changers project in Muncie Ind. and being there with 151 teens from seven
states, working on twelve homes, and seeing sixteen people led to Christ, WOW it is great. I am
in awe at being able to see God at work, I pray I can maintain the high I am on.Thanks for letting
me be a part of the crew. I have had to cancel three projects due to an injury I recieved while in
Muncie, however I plan on staying in close touch with the people at these projects so I can still be
part of Gods work this summer. I thank my God for allowing me to serve Him and the people of
Unity Baptist and Muncie Ind. May He have all the glory.
Clyde K.
The week in Millington may just possibly be the event that will change my life forever. I went
there knowing that The Lord would teach me something but with no idea exactly what that would
be. I learned in my heart what I had always known in my head... that every part of the body is
important and that it is in exactly the place where God wants it to be. Thanks first of all to God and
then to all the folks at Summit who made this trip possible for me. A special thank you to Bobby for
his unbelievable patience with me. And just so that you will all know what an awesome God we
serve, once I surrendered and became content with my place on the ground, God not only let me
get up on the roof, but my final job was working on the steeple tower... the highest spot on the
entire job. A BIG thank you to all the people who showed me what true love can be. May God
Bless You All.
Stanley R.
The mission to Millington, TN just spiritually infused me. I believe that I have a better
understanding why Jesus died on the cross for us. Praise all the brothers and sister who participated
in this building of the body of Christ.
Jose P.
Just returned home from Millington, TN. What a spirit-filled week. Our brothers and sisters
there have a new church home and all who helped build it have been blessed, I know I have been.
I look with anticipation to next year's trip. May God bless all who have gone and will go on future
trips. Bobby and Becky Lunceford, thank you for all the hard work and spiritual leadership. God
bless both of you. In his mighty and awesome grip.
Sandy H.
Just a note to say that I have just spent the best week of my life in Millington, TN serving the
Lord. Thank you for letting me use my availability to serve Christ's will. I have emt and worked
with the Army of God in building His kingdom. My prayer is that we all use what we learned to
better serve Him in our daily lives.
Vincent B.
We have made several trips with the team to build churches, and received many blessings on
each trip. You can always receive more blessings than the church members do on these trips. May
God bless each one on the team and each church member that we have built a church for.
Helton and Jean H.
