Pastor's Blog

I was not planning on writing an entry until Monday morning but Nanette Fontenot is worrying me sick as to why I have given an update on Korie.  So, here it is – Korie did well through the surgery and if she can see with no problems then her life becomes “normal” again i.e. she returns to the softball field.  That is good news and we give God the glory!

Visited with Miss Exie this morning.  She was better to the point of about to be discharged but then had a coughing episode.  The doctor said she will be in the hospital for a few more days.

Bro. Chris’ dad said he was doing “okay” and that was about it.

Talk about awkward – Scott, Nanette, Marie Brooks and I are sitting in the surgery waiting room during Korie’s surgery.  A guy sits two chairs away from me and we strike up conversation.  Either Nanette or Marie tells the guy that I am a preacher/pastor.  Then, out of nowhere, Nanette proceeds to tell him that we used to date.  His response was, “this is a little different” and he kind of did not talk to us any more.  Now, I was so shaken by this turn of events that my recollection could be off on one or two points but this is how I remember it happening.  Wow!

P.S. – Korie is looking for a husband!  Her requirements are pretty tough – he must have a pulse!

This entry is late due to the fact that we did not have internet service during the night.  I have promptly filed a complaint with Al’s office!  (Actually, I have asked Dr. Jack Bailey to speak to Al personally on my behalf as they communicate regularly)

Korie Fontenot is set to have surgery at 11:00AM today.  I had an “ah ha” moment last night when it dawned on me that Jason Husband lives very near the hospital where Korie will be having surgery.  I think I will just go get Jason to join me as we sit in the waiting room with Nanette – o my goodness!  LOL!

Miss Exie Woods was not feeling well when I visited her yesterday morning.  However, her daughter, Betty, said the doctors felt once the antibiotics began working she would improve greatly.  I will visit her again today.

Bro. Chris’ dad was admitted to the hospital yesterday.  I plan on seeing him today.

Terry Lucky was doing well following his surgery.  He was thinking that he would go home yesterday once they got the lab work back.  I do not know if that happened.

We are on a regular schedule this Sunday.  The Personnel Committee (Glenn Cooper, Anna Carol Bosarge, Greg Boutwell, Clara Broadus, Andy Hamil) is asked to meet at 5:00PM in my office.

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