Our fifth grandchild, Nora, celebrates her second birthday today! Happy birthday, Nora!
Today’s Bible reading – Nehemiah 11:1-12:26 1 Corinthians 10:14-33 Psalm 34:11-22 Proverbs 21;14-16
Max Peacock only checked into the hospital to get a cup of coffee. I decided to call yesterday morning before driving to Mobile and Max had been discharged Friday afternoon. I spoke to him via the phone and he was doing well.
It is a little after midnight as I write this entry. Bro. Chris and crew left Danville at 9:00PM. I expect they should arrive in Grand Bay around 3:00AM. If you happen to be awake over the next three hours or so, join me in praying for them to have a safe trip home.
Danville’s Block Party had to deal with rain yesterday but it did not rain during the actual party. They had over 1,100 folks come through the gate and, with the workers added, had around 1,300 in attendance. Dr. Jack said Bryan Drake did great! He was also very complimentary of our folks who helped.
Bro. Wade was supposed to arrive around 11:00PM last night. I can only assume he did. He knows what time our services begin so I expect him to be present. Will you? I am praying for a packed house.
I heard from Dale yesterday. They spent the week in Texas where they saw 38 salvation decisions, 35 rededications and 3 answer the call to ministry. That does not include any decisions made last night in Danville at the Block Party. Praise the Lord!
Members of the Friendship family have until August 31, 2015 to sign up for next Summer’s GRACE trips. The two that I will lead will be at capacity plus on 9/1. That is already guaranteed. I do not assume that anyone is going. The only way to sign up for the two trips I lead is to send me an e-mail. Telling me at church does not count! Going on the trip led by Bro. Jerry? Send him an e-mail.
I pray that you will have a great Sunday with Jesus. Go to church!
