WEDNESDAY, 2/9/11

Lisa and I visited with Merwyn Gunter yesterday and he was supposed to be moved from the CCU to a regular room.  Not sure if that happened.  We also visited Ted Ezell in SICU but he was sleeping hard.  The good news is that he was not on a ventilator.  He looked good considering he had major surgery the day before.  We also stopped in and prayed with Mr. Andrew Jackson, Teddy Ray’s dad.  They are supposed to put a stent in his leg this morning and are praying that will work.

Mr. & Mrs. Douglas remain hospitalized too.  Pray for Dee Dee and her parents.

The funeral service for Sheila Taylor will take place this morning at 10:00AM.  Pray for Arlene and Pastor Anthony Langley as they minister to this family.

Bro. Jerry tells me there were 34 folks present for the first evening of GROW last night – awesome!  He plans a make up session for those who could not be there.  Contact him for the details.

We have a “new” team that arrived in Guatemala yesterday under the leadership of Dave & Donna Westhouse.  Dave & Donna just got home from leading a Moline team and now they are leading a team from Reeman.  Some of these folks have gone with Moline in past years but now their church is having their own trip.  Praise the Lord!  You can follow them at www.reemanteam2011.blogspot.com.

The renovation work on the lower level of the CAB continued yesterday as Sammy Bowden is doing the electrical and Tony Hacker is preparing to stand up new walls.  Pray for this project.

Our next “potluck with the pastor” takes place next Wednesday, 2/16, immediately following the morning service.  Lisa and I will provide the meat (ham) and drinks.  You bring the trimmings and desserts.  Great food and even greater fellowship.  Join us!

Regular schedule today.  I hope many members of the Friendship family will join us.

Our June 16 – 23 and July 21 – 28 GRACE trips are full.  Folks can still sign up for the July 14 – 21 trip being led by Bro. Jerry.

Now is the time for members of the Friendship family to sign up for our November 14 – 21, 2011 GRACE trip and/or the January 28 – February 4, 2012 (medical) GRACE trip.  You have until March 15 to sign up and then we will fill the openings with folks outside the Friendship family.  I can already promise you both of those trips will be at capacity as soon as they are opened to others.

Did it bother me to see UT get beat in roundball last night?  What do you think?  I do not care an awful lot for UK’s coach but that bright orange jacket that Pearl wears is killing me!

Speaking of pearls, think Valentine’s Day and our 2011 Lottie Moon Christmas Offering!

FYI, our Easter cantata will take place on Saturday, April 23, beginning at 6:00PM.  We will not have a service on Sunday evening, 4/24.  This is a new approach for us but one we believe will be best for our choir members and church family.

Today is Miss Edna Glover’s anniversary as our church secretary.  Is it 84 years?  Something like that!  Congratulations Miss Edna!

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