Visited with Mr. Earl, Jennifer, and Craig this morning.  Craig remains in ICU and his situation is serious.  The doctor said it like this, “Craig is very sick.  Hope for best.  Prepare for the worst”  He is septic, is on a ventilator, is being restrained, and is basically being medicated to keep him at rest.  He did open his eyes during our visit but obviously cannot talk because of the tube.  Jennifer stayed with him throughout the night and said that he never slept a bit.  A doctor early this morning said that the next 48 hours will most likely tell the story.  Pray for Craig and his family.

Visited with Rob’s mother.  It was a delightful visit.  She has a very serious infection and needs our prayers.  Keep praying, please.

Happy second birthday to our granddaughter, Emmy.  She is out of town, cannot read, and, if she could read, probably would not read this blog so hopefully one of the eight readers will let her know that “pop pop” wishes her well today.

The visitation with the Curl family takes place tonight from 5:00 until 8:00PM at Radney’s Funeral Home on Dauphin Street in Mobile.  The service will take place tomorrow at 10:00AM.  I will be assisting (graveside) with that service.  Pray for John and his family.

The visitation with the Kelley family takes place tomorrow afternoon from 12:30 until the 2:00PM service time.  Everything will take place in Hattiesburg, MS.  Bro. Jerry Hovel will be preaching that service.  Pray for Mr. JB and his family.

Remember, tomorrow’s 10:00AM service has been cancelled.  The evening service/activities will take place as scheduled.

Craig Kirschenman is in ICU in a local hospital.  I do not know all of the details but I did get to speak with him last night during a visit.  Pray for Craig.

Rob’s mother, Miss Barbara, potentially has some tough days ahead of her.  I plan on visiting her this morning.

Continue to pray for those battling cancer.

If you plan on attending the Mother/Daughter banquet this Thursday night, 5/9, and have not signed up already, please call the church office by 5:00PM today.  This is important!

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