WEDNESDAY, 5/7/08
We have had a very pleasant Spring but I think the times are changing! The early mornings for the past several days have been a little cool making it very nice. However, it seems that this morning the humidity is up and the temps didn’t drop as low as they have for the past several nights. Summer is most likely upon us! (I feel like Jack Bailey)
The service for Syble McCoy was a time of inspiration. Janice sang and also shared a testimony about her mother. Mike, Jr. read Scripture and also shared about his grandmother. Tom Freeman did a nice job of sharing Scripture and some personal words about Miss Syble. Bro. Kerry & Miss Jeanette did a good job of sharing through music too. Continue to pray for the McCoy family.
David Boutwell, Greg’s brother, continues to need our prayers as he remains hospitalized.
As of this writing, Aaron Burnett, Josh Mott, & Cody Povilonis are the only three high school seniors who have submitted their photos. (I am so disappointed in Diane Vickers & Deanna Wetterer!) We need each high school senior who will be present in the 10:30AM service on Sunday, 5/18, to get us those photos by this Sunday, 5/11.
My family and I attended Faith Academy’s Spring concert last night featuring several of their choirs. Our own, Hien Tran, was in the SSA Choir and Kourtney Wadkins was in the elementary choir. The choirs did a nice job but Kourt and Hien were the best!
I haven’t done a very good job this month in extending birthday wishes – I missed Melissa Brown’s & Gerald Poiroux’s on the 1st as well as Cameron Watson’s & Nolan Brown’s on the 4th. However, I didn’t want to miss Tena Hovel’s today! How old is she you ask? Well, mama taught me to respect my elders so I will only say this – Miss Syble McCoy was born in 1918 and rumor has it that she and Tena were in school together just not the same grade! Also, Bro. Johnny & Miss Judy’s daughter, Deidra, is celebrating her 38th birthday today! So, happy belated birthday wishes to Melissa, Gerald, Cameron, & Nolan and birthday wishes to Tena and Deidra!
I hope the members of the Friendship family will join us for one of our services and/or Bible studies today. Our young adults are encouraged to join us at 8:00PM tonight at the house for food, fellowship, and a time in the Word. The Milo Man, Sam Schjott, may even furnish the tea!
I pray that you will have a great Wednesday!
