MONDAY, 8/4/08
The Lord blessed and we had a good day in His house yesterday. We welcomed Davy Bosarge into the Friendship family by transfer of letter. The attendance in all three of our services was very good. The fifteen folks who were left in Atlanta on Saturday night arrived home safely around 11:00AM. Special thanks to Kevin Vice & Warren Guidry for driving to Gulfport to bring them home. Alisha Vice arrived in Gulfport around 10:00PM last night after her summer of teaching abroad.
Somewhat amazingly, Joey Switzer was present for the 10:30AM & 6:00PM services yesterday. We continue to praise God for His blessings in that situation.
Shirley Bosarge is on the telemetry floor in a local hospital and is improving. Linda Green’s sister, Rose, passed away this weekend. Vera Bosarge’s brother, David, is having five to seven by-pass surgery today and her niece is also having surgery. Clara Broadus will be having another surgery on her eye Wednesday followed by a third surgery on 8/27. Carla Kyser continues to receive her treatments. Pray for all of these folks and their families.
This Friday, Saturday, and Sunday will see us focus on our students as we host Kacy Benson from Austin, Texas. Kacy is one of the featured speakers at Wild Week each summer. He will be preaching at 7:00PM on Friday, 8:00PM on Saturday, and 10:30AM on Sunday. Pray for this weekend!
We will have the sign up sheets available beginning this Sunday, 8/10, through Sunday, 8/31, for next summer’s GRACE trips. We are asking folks to sign up and to pay a $100 non-refundable deposit. The exact dates have yet to be determined but will most likely be very close to the dates used this summer. We will not be using the Saturday to Saturday format – who ever thought up that idea?
I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.
