Please note that the container is NOT going to be here in the morning, 2/9, meaning that we can’t load it!  This drastically changes our plans but we are going into the flexibility mode!  It appears we will be loading Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of next week but that is not a definite yet.  Stay tuned! 

I was a bit premature in saying that Vaughn Womack was on the upswing as he has had a pretty tough week.  He is doing better but the doctor seems to think it will be Monday or so before he really begins to feel better. 

Dominique Wilcox, 10, was admitted to the hospital yesterday.  He burned his foot/ankle about three weeks ago and it has become infected.  He will be in the hospital for about two weeks as they rid his body of the infection and then do a skin graft. 

The ladies and a couple of guys finished the gourmet apples yesterday.  Thanks for a job well done!  Students who sold them need to contact Becky Hatcher to pick their order up in order to distibute them.  T. Garrett, I need your address!  Bret, you are supposed to have one coming! 

A couple of our young adults are weighing their seminary options as they are completing their college studies.  Wes Bates visited Southwestern Seminary in Ft. Worth earlier this week and will go to Southern in Louisville at a future date.  Alisha Vice has visited Midwestern in Kansas City along with the New Orleans seminary and is visiting Mid-America this week too.  Pray as these young adults seek God’s will for their lives!

I spoke to Gene Davis, Texas, via the phone yesterday afternoon and he is doing well.  He will be having knee surgery followed by shoulder surgery in the fairly near future but otherwise he is okay.  He and Gena have made some changes but out of choice and not necessity.  He and Gena send their regards to everyone!  (Gene, the letter and DVD are being mailed today!) 

I think Luke 14:18A is the verse of the week for the Friendship family!  We will be unloading the contents of one container into another container beginning at 8:00AM tomorrow morning.  The Friendship folks are the greatest and I know we will have sufficient help. 

Ken Freeman called yesterday and he is ready to get here and preach the Word!  Pray, attend, invite!  Lord send a revival! 

Our missionary friend, Mark Mast, will celebrate his birthday tomorrow!  I think this will be his 61st birthday but I could be wrong!  LOL!  Mark, I hope you will have an awesome day!  Mark Mast and his family are so awesome in their service to Jesus! 

I hope you will have a wonderful day with Jesus!
