Yesterday’s (Saturday, 5/24) Bible reading – 2 Samuel 4:1-6:23 John 13:31-14:14 Psalm 119:17-32 Proverbs 15:31-32

This entry is being written shortly after 10:00PM on Saturday night and is intended to be Sunday’s entry.
The wedding ceremony for Matt & Alisha was beautiful.
The 100th birthday celebration for Miss Annie Rogers was well attended (at least when Lisa and I went early on). She, and her family, are so well known in the Grand Bay community.
Our second celebration service had 37 in attendance. (Actually, 37 7/8 as Nicole was there!) The band did well and Dale brought a good Word! We actually had some “new” faces which is encouraging.
We are on a regular schedule this morning and evening. Jim & Glenda Chinners will be cooking a “to go” meal that will be available immediately after Sunday School for those who attend the 8:00AM service and then after the 10:30AM service for all others. The cost is $6 per plate with the proceeds helping our students take part in the GRACE trips this Summer.
I know it is a holiday weekend. I pray that we will not forget those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice defending our freedoms. I also pray that we will not forget/forsake the assembling of ourselves together today as the body of Jesus. Yes, we have folks out of town but we also have a lot of us in town. Lets be faithful!
Remember, the church office will be closed tomorrow (Monday) for Memorial Day. I will be in town and available in the event of an emergency. Otherwise, the office will open at 8:00AM on Tuesday.
Lisa and I had the opportunity to fellowship with Pastor Roy & Rachel (my first cousin) on Friday night. We enjoyed ourselves as it is always good to spend time with such a fine young couple.
I pray that you will have a great Sunday with Jesus.
