James E. Davis passed away late this afternoon in a local hospital.  The family will go to the funeral home tomorrow morning to make arrangements.  We will post those arrangements here once they have been finalized.  Please pray for Imelda, Matt, Mark, Anna Carol, Brenda and their families.

Good Wednesday.  Good group yesterday morning, good group at 7:00PM, and a very good group at 8:00PM.  God is good!  We give Him the praise!

Tena Hovel’s sister had surgery yesterday and did well.  She should go home today.  James Davis remains in a local hospital and is not doing so well.  Lois Kirschenman goes back to the doctor today.  Larry Whitehurst is having a nuclear stress test this afternoon.  Tony Barnes his having knee replacement on Monday and Sonny Bates will have the same on 10/25.  Louise Morris’ son, Phil, will be having surgery soon too.  Miss Joyce Bosarge is not as sick and Carla Kyser got a better report from the doctor yesterday.  Mr. Compagner remains hospitalized.  It was good to see Lewis Jackson in the service last night.  He looked better than he did this past Sunday.

Don Larsen pitched a perfect game in the 1956 World Series which was before my time.  Yesterday, Roy Halladay, pitched a no hitter in the first game of the playoffs to join Larsen as the only two MLB pitchers to accomplish such a feat.  Wow!  I did not watch it but it will probably never happen again in my lifetime.  The Braves take the field today.

I missed seeing another record last night too.  Bro. Chris, Rusty, Stephanie D., and Dunnam played the card game, hearts, after the late Bible study.  Low score wins and high score loses.  The absolute highest score one can have is 125.  Lance Nicholson is the only person I know to have reached that milestone – until last night.  Bro. Chris sent me a picture of the score sheet and Dunnam is now in that exclusive 125 club thanks to a “run” by Bro. Chris on the last hand!  Stephanie D was playing for the first time and she beat Dunnam!

I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
