FRIDAY, 2/28/14
Today’s Bible reading – Leviticus 22:17-23:44, Mark 9:30-10:12, Psalm 44:1-8, Proverbs 10:19
Willie & Jodie Johnson’s son, Brice, will have surgery early this morning. I am about to head to the hospital to pray with him and then sit with W & J during the procedure.
Bro. Jerry visited J.L., Carolyn and Miss Bowden yesterday. J.L. is now in a regular room. Miss Bowden was doing good. Carolyn is not sure when she will be going to the rehab facility. (BTW, Trish did not send me an update via e-mail! Wait, Trish is always late so yesterday’s update is probably coming tomorrow! LOL!)
The visitation with the Tony Barnes family and the funeral service takes place tomorrow at the church. Visitation is from 12:00PM until the 2:00PM service time. The family asks that in lieu of flowers donations be given to GRACE Ministries in memory of Tony. All donations will be used to build a house(s) in Tony’s memory on a November 2014 GRACE trip. Pray for Miss JoNell and the family.
Mission of Hope service tonight at 7:00PM. Bus leaves the church at 6:15PM for those interested in riding.
The wedding of Aaron Akridge and Taylor Sprinkle (Kevin & Tina) takes place tomorrow afternoon, 3/1, at 3:30PM in Eight Mile. All members of the Friendship family are invited to attend.
The students will host a spaghetti dinner (take out only) this Sunday, 3/2, with plates for a suggested donation of $6. All proceeds help defray their costs on the GRACE trips this Summer.
Pastor Ted Traylor will be our guest on Thursday, March 13, 2014 in a special service beginning at 6:30AM. This service takes top priority over everything else on our church calendar. Please pray, attend, and bring others with you. I am praying for a standing room only crowd.
We are on a regular schedule this Sunday, 3/2. The southern gospel group, The Revelations, will be our special guests in the 6:00PM service. I am told they are good. I pray that the Friendship family will support that service very well.
Our friend’s, Mandi Fortner, grandmother in northern Louisiana is not doing well physically. Your prayers would be appreciated by her, Mandi, and us. Thanks!
Dana, Gina, & I had a great road trip yesterday. Thanks to Craig Moss and Joe David & Lori Bailey for their help. They were a blessing to us!
I pray that you will have a great Friday with Jesus.
