MONDAY, 1/5/09

2009 – are you kidding me?  Where did 2008 go?  Mama always said that “time flies when you are having fun” so the older I get the more I must be having!  Obviously, I haven’t posted since 12/26/08 and I did have one person, Vera Bosarge, tell me she missed my posts.  So, it appears my blog readership is now down to one which leads me to have a new year’s resolution to get that number back up to five!

I attended the funeral service for Mark Mast’s grandfather, Andrew Boeve, last Monday, 12/29.  Mark did a good job preaching that service.  Mike Blaylock, Nate’s dad, passed away and his service was Friday, 1/2.  I did not make it home in time to attend that service but did speak to Nate via the phone.  Pray for these families. 

Edwin Williams’ father, Ralph Williams, entered heaven around 7:00PM last night.  Of course, Ed’s sister, Arlene Weaver, was a member of the Friendship family before moving to Georgia.  Pray for this family as they walk through this valley. 

Terri Emmons, 32, passed away and they will have a visitation for the next two nights and a funeral service on Wednesday morning.  Terri used to ride a bus to church at Friendship and I helped preach her mother’s funeral service back in the 80’s.  Pray for her dad, Roger, and the family during this time. 

Lillian Brinkman will have surgery tomorrow morning, 1/6, and Brittan Gillespie will have surgery on 1/21. Amy Huhn’s mother, Gloria Morrison, was diagnosed with cancer last week and will see an oncologist this morning.  Miss Joyce Bosarge is some better in her battle with cancer and Carla Felps Kyser continues to take her treatments.   Pray for these folks. 

Carmen Reyer and Larry Thompson were in the 8:00AM service yesterday and Helen Ruth Brinkman was in the 10:30AM service – it was good to see these folks.  Continue to pray for them!

2009 – The Year of Renewal.  Our focus yesterday morning was on spiritual renewal and my prayer is that God will renew us personally and collectively in these days. 

I have joined Lottie’s Legion @ Friendship and invite you to join too!  Simply put, we need 100 folks to join which means a commitment to give $1 a day between February 1 and November 30 as we reach of 2009 LMCO goal of $30,000.  You will have the opportunity to join during the month of January.  BTW – our final total for our 2008 LMCO was $25,817.91!  Praise the Lord and to God be the glory! 

We are collecting vitamins, Tylenol, Motrin, Advil, et cetera for our Februray GRACE trip to Guatemala.  I made the announcement yesterday morning and received the first bag of these items last night.  You can bring these at any time between now and January 25.  Thank you! 

Faith Academy beckons!  I hope you will have a great Monday with Jesus!
