THURSDAY, 7/14/11
What a blessed Wednesday we had in our services/Bible studies! I do not know about the student ministry numbers but the attendance in our morning service and two evening services was excellent. Our 7:00PM folks sat in the dark since the electricity was out but no one complained (they are used to bad preaching!) and we had a good study. Betty Creech’s cousin, Becky Thompson, from Arkansas sang in the morning service and did a very nice job. We praise God for His continued blessings on the Friendship family.
Bro. Jerry’s team leaves the church at 11:30AM today bound for Guatemala. They are excited and have already had to use that flexible mindset. Pray that they will have a blessed trip.
We will have something new in our 8:00AM service beginning in August. That something is that we will offer extended care for 3, 4, & 5 year olds. The concept is Bro. Jerry’s. Stephanie Dunkley has graciously agreed to be the teacher. She will teach, attend Sunday School, and then take part in our 10:30AM service. This will give young families more options as to the morning services. Pass the word!
I mentioned a story in last night’s service about someone trying to locate someone from her childhood days who had been so kind. She located her yesterday afternoon via the internet. (Thanks Al!) She had not made contact but at least knows where she is now. Great story of compassion and giving! Who does God want you to minister to today?
USA! USA! USA! I am so pumped over the women’s soccer victory yesterday morning! What time is the game Sunday?
I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
