MONDAY, 11/11/13

A big salute to all of the veterans!  Thank you for serving your country.  I made a huge mistake in the first service yesterday when I failed to recognize our veterans.  I had folks sit down near the end of the service in order to have the veterans stand and then completely forgot!  No excuses.  My mistake.  My apologies!

Thanks to those who took part in the ordination service for John Vickers last night.  Special thanks to the men who participated in the ordination council.  Also, special thanks to Cecil Guidry and all who helped coordinate the reception for John.  Obviously, many folks brought desserts and that is greatly appreciated too.  The clean up crew was spot on as well.  Neal & Mike did very nice jobs of bringing the Word.  John and his family have expressed their appreciation for every thing that took place last night.

Ruby Gulley is scheduled for a heart cath this morning.  Maxine Dupont was placed in the hospital last Friday and I suspect she is still in.  Lisa and I visited with her on Friday night.

Scott Eckert’s 16 year old nephew was tragically killed in an automobile accident over the weekend.  That funeral service takes place tomorrow afternoon at 3:00PM from the Lighthouse Baptist Church in Pascagoula.  Pray for the Eckert family.

Pastor Rodney Coleman’s father, Pastor James Coleman, passed away last Thursday.  That funeral service takes place today from Pastor Rodney’s church.  Pray for the Coleman family.

Phillip Marchand, Sr. passed away last Wednesday night.  That funeral service takes place today from the St. John’s Baptist Catholic Church in Grand Bay.

Lisa and I are on a plane bound for Guatemala.  We will be joined by 35 other folks in a week of ministry.  This team is comprised of folks from Alabama, Canada, & Michigan.  Pray for this team.  Caroline Ford was not able to join us on this trip due to a low heart rate (I did not know she had a heart!) and a low oxygen level.  Pray for her too!

The Grand Bay community Thanksgiving service is set for Sunday evening, 11/24, beginning at 6:00PM from the First Baptist Church.  The ministerial association has honored me by asking me to preach during that service.  I am looking for at least 200 members of the Friendship family to join me for that service.  Will you?

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