FRIDAY, 9/9/16

“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.”  (Psalm 19:14 KJV)

Today’s Bible reading – Ezekiel 40-41

Terrance McGaster came through his surgery very well.  I appreciate Bro. Jerry Hovel going to pray with Terrance before the surgery and being with the family during the operation.

Just found out that Randy Collins has been admitted to the hospital – again!  Wow, Randy has really been through it.

The breakfast with our senior adults went well too.  Sherry Schlehuber did a nice job of cooking with an assist from Cecil Guidry.  Bob Evans graciously helped with the clean up.  A decision was made to move the next two of these gatherings to Wednesdays since our folks are at church on Wednesday mornings for the service.  So, the next senior adults breakfast will take place on Wednesday, October 12, at 9:00AM in the fellowship hall.  Folks who attend the breakfast will be expected to remain for the service at 10:00AM.  In November we will either do another breakfast or may do a “potluck with the pastor” following the morning service – TBD.

Our TNBA went well last night.  Our next gathering will be on Sunday night, 9/18.

We are on a regular schedule this Sunday morning and evening.  Our evening service will be a special prayer service for our nation featuring prayers for our local officials, state officials and national officials.  The choir will be singing two specials and we will have a special guest to sing “The Star Spangled Banner” too.  My hope is that many members of the Friendship family will attend this special service.  Josh has a fellowship planned for our students following that service.

Pastor Jack Bailey does a daily blog at brotherjack.org.  He posted an article yesterday written by a Wesleyan pastor from San Diego.  The article concerns the upcoming presidential election.  In my opinion it is a good read.  It is the very last thing on Pastor Jack’s blog for Thursday, 9/8, if you are interested.  Or, I can send it to you as an attachment if you let me know you would like to receive it.

I did not watch the first game of the NFL season last night but read that the Broncos won which surprised me a bit.  Like him or love him, Cam Newton is a player!  The guy is good!  I have much more interest in the college games this weekend as opposed to the start of the NFL season.

The yard is calling my name.  I pray that you will have a great Friday with Jesus.
