Neal Holmes passed away this evening, 12/20, shortly after 6:00PM.  He passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his family.  Pray for Carolyn and the rest of the family.

It is about 9:45PM and I just returned from meeting with the Holmes family.  No arrangements have been solidified but the family is leaning toward a Saturday visitation and service.  Again, that is not definite.

As I mentioned in our service last night, we are going to need the members of the Friendship family to step up and help with the food for this family.  I will post the details once we know them along with a contact person and number.  Thank you in advance for your response!

We had a pretty good day in our services yesterday.  Our young adults who attend the late Bible study really enjoyed their Christmas fellowship.  God is good!

Tiffany & Peyton Fox came home from the hospital yesterday as did Pattie Suthoff.

Lindsey Vice’s surgery was quick and successful.  She should be discharged this morning (TJ thinks if he can get her out before the twenty four hours are up then he only has to pay for one day.  He is thinking the daily rate should be hotel like – say $99 or so per night)

Kevin Woods was in surgery all day yesterday.  I am told the surgery went well.  Keep praying for him.

I was called to the home of Neal Holmes yesterday afternoon as they thought he was passing.  He pulled through that episode but is very low physically.  Pray for Neal and his family.

Attempted to visit Betty Carol Neal yesterday afternoon but they busy doing something in her room.

Jerry Whitmore told me last night that Miss Gloria is going to have eye surgery in early January.

I remind the Friendship family that we are on a regular schedule this Sunday, 12/23, with the exception of no DT.  Also, remember the Christmas Eve service from 5:00 – 6:00PM.

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