MONDAY, 5/31/10
Yes, it was a holiday weekend but we had a really blessed day in our services yesterday. Nanette Stevens came forward during the 10:30AM invitation and accepted Jesus as her personal Savior. Awesome! Lamar Mills followed the Lord in believer’s baptism last night as a part of our evening worship service. I appreciate Lee Sessions’ assist in doing that baptism. God gives the increase and we give Him the glory!
The members of the Friendship family responded beautifully to the fellowship. Our attendance was very good and the fellowship was great! Again, I really appreciate Bro. Benny & Julie McGath and Dale & Karla Bosarge for leading the effort in cooking the burgers, hot dogs, et cetera. A big thank you to everyone who brought food, attended the fellowship, or helped in any way.
Anna Carol Bosarge continues to have health problems but they don’t think they are related to her recent surgery. Pray that they can find the source of her problems. Jayne English’s situation remains unchanged.
The church office is closed today for Memorial Day. Take some time today to say a prayer of thanksgiving for those folks who have given their lives in order that we might enjoy the freedoms we have as Americans. Thank God for our military!
There were somewhere around 100 deaths in Central America over the weekend due to Tropical Storm Agatha. All is well in the area where the mission house is located. Pastor Danny hopes to get out of CA through El Salvador today. It appears the airport in GC will open tomorrow. Our summer teams are going to have an even greater opportunity to do ministry because of the damage done by this storm system.
Dana & Gina have gone to Danville for the week, Lisa is at the island, and I am headed out the door to eat some weeds at my in-laws. I do have to give credit where credit is due – the last two Saturdays have seen Charles help me cut the grass. He mows our five acres while I cut the yard grass and he is only charging me $50 per hour – awesome!
I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.
