The visitation with Jack Rice’s family will take place tonight from 5:00 – 8:00PM at Serenity Funeral Home. The service takes place tomorrow at 10:00AM from the Higher Ground Baptist Church.
The service for Caryn Suthoff went well. All four singers did very well. The Friendship family did very well in providing the meal for the family. The 20-29 SS class did very well in hosting the meal. As a matter of fact, there was so much food left over that we were able to bless a local ministry and they were extremely grateful. Thank you to each person who helped minister to the Suthoff family in any way. I am going to miss C tremendously!
Ray Baber’s mother has been moved to a convalescent facility for the time being.
As far as I know, no change in Faye Owens (Clara’s sister). Keep praying.
Keep praying for those battling cancer. Lisa Thompson and Gloria Morrison are in that number.
Regular schedule today/tonight. Next Wednesday we will have our Christmas Eve service and the following Wednesday, 12/31, we will not have any services. But, everything is on a regular schedule tonight, 12/17.
Two events have shaken me in recent days. First, I went to the fellowship hall during the visitation on Monday night as the 30-39 SS class was hosting a meal. Had to fix my own plate and my own drink! Where were the hosts and hostesses? Eating! I get no respect from that class. (I have not even mentioned their Christmas gathering where they totally ignored even inviting me!)
Second, I could not get my cell phone to charge on Monday morning. Lisa then tells me that she washed and dried my phone over the weekend. Told me to put it in some rice! Needless to say it is no longer! I have only had it since circa 1985. Devastating!
So, I am without a cell phone until at least this Friday which is my next off day. (I try to do personal business on off days only) If you call or text me then you will not get an answer or a reply. Flip phone or 6? Decisions, decisions! (A part of me wants to go with no phone!)
Then, I decide to watch the second half of the Alabama basketball game last night. Big mistake! They folded big time in the final six minutes. Looked like Kyle Bryant and Phillip Turner were coaching them! Wow!
I pray that you will have a great Wednesday with Jesus.
