The Bemidji Full Gospel Men’s Prayer Breakfast will be held Saturday, February 7 in the First Baptist Church Community Room (1555 Paul Bunyan Dr NW). Please park in the back and use the rear entrance. Starting at 8am, there will be a light breakfast followed by a time of fellowship and a testimony from featured speaker Larry Richter.
Larry Richter comes to us from Wadena, MN where he resides with his wife, Ruth and raised four children. He is the son of Don and Margaret Richter who was the former president of Wadena’s Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship.
Larry was raised in a home and believed his religion was enough for him until Christians spoke into his life. He was prayed for at a FGBMF in Alexandria, that changed his life forever.
He worked as a Dairy Route Sales Specialist for nearly 40 years until his retirement in 2020 when his health made it difficult to work any longer. He was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and von Willebrand in 2021. After a multiple prognosis and hard first year, the Lord and continued treatment has stabilized the disease.
Beast Feast! Feb 7th, 6pm at the church. All boys and men are invited, with Keith Cline bringing a message. If you would like to, you can bring a wild game, meat dish, or veggie dish to share! This is going to be a great night of God, food, and fellowship!
