SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST

Dr. Kirk Tyler and his wife, Sue, are good friends of the Friendship family and GRACE Ministries.  They have helped us lead two medical mission trips to Guatemala for GRACE.  Kirk will be in court beginning today for something that happened about three years ago.  Please join me in praying for Kirk, Sue, their family and this situation.

MAY 1

The Friendship family certainly believes in missions giving and going so that is why I am asking you to join me in praying for Bro. Johnny & Miss Judy Tucker as they leave today for a month in the Philippines leading two separate teams.  They are scheduled to return home on May 28. 

Speaking of missions, we will soon begin to promote and receive offerings for our 2007 Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for international missions.  I am praying about what the Lord would have our goal to be for this year.  Would you begin to pray now about this matter and what the Lord would have you to give? 

Jay Black, Rick Bradley, Troy Brock, Dirk & Dillon Johnson, T.J. Vice, & Raymond Wilkinson did a great job last night in getting the tile work started in the fellowship hall.  As with most projects, getting started is a slow process but they did well.  Simply moving all of those boxes of tiles into the building was a major chore.  The most asked question of the night was, “Where’s Glen?” 

We will have another work night tonight and we could use some help especially if you have any experience in doing tile work.  Of course, we always need folks to mix mud, carry tiles, et cetera.  You also always need the Troy Brock’s to stand around and talk while the others work. 

Jay Black said he can’t come tonight because Paula Deen is going to be in town talking about food.  I assume this is Jimmy Dean’s wife?  Personally, I think the JD sausage, pancakes on a stick, et cetera are okay but I wouldn’t go to a show to learn about them when you can buy them in your local grocer’s freezer!    Of course, Jay did show up last night which is more than can be said for Deacon Dewayne!

Speaking of food, our daughter Daphne tells me there is some guy in our church who cooks various flavors of cheese cakes but she can’t remember who he is.  Do you know?  If so, please let me know as she needs cheese cakes for an upcoming wedding function.  Odd request I know but she asked me to ask – I’m thinking Brandon Lee, Nate Blaylock, or Chris Taylor.  I don’t think she would discriminate and would take a lady too!

Several folks have asked about getting copies of Mike Blaylock’s books.  You can go to www.buildingwinnersforlife.com to learn more about Mike and the resources available.  I would encourage our out of town friends to prayerfully consider having Mike in to speak to your church family.  As Dick Vitale would say, “He’s awesome, baby!” 

Ladies, please don’t forget the baby shower for Tiffany Bowden Fox this Sunday, 5/6, from 2:00 – 3:30PM in the fellowship hall.

Our children’s choir will present their Spring musical on Sunday evening, May 13, beginning at 6:00PM.  I am indebted to Kathy Wadkins for arranging this change of date at my request and I hope you will make plans to be present for that special evening. 

Burney Barnes was moved from the ICU to a room yesterday.  Melinda Eckert’s dad was still in the NICU as of late yesterday morning.  Josh Taylor will be having some surgery in the late afternoon today. Please pray for these folks. 

I am off to get a wet saw to cut tile.  I pray you will have a blessed day!
