Tim heard from the doctor late this afternoon and the biopsy confirmed that he does indeed have a malignancy.  It appears the next step will be PET scan next week.  Keep praying for Tim, Peggy and the family.

Glenda Chinners has extended the deadline for “adopting” a child from the angel tree.  The deadline is now this Sunday, 11/6.  Contact Glenda for more information.  Her number is 458 7493.  You can fully “adopt” a child or give any amount toward this ministry cause.  All families receiving gifts through this ministry will be required to be in our Christmas Eve service and then will get their gifts after the service.  This will give us the opportunity to share the Gospel with them.  Sponsors can also be involved when the families receive their gifts.  So, if interested, please contact Glenda.  Thank you!

Today’s Bible reading – Matthew 19; Mark 10

Tim Knighten is supposed to receive a call from the doctor today with the results of the biopsy.  Someone shared a FB post written by Tim and it was amazing.  He has such a positive outlook.  Let’s pray that the doctor was incorrect and he biopsy comes back good.

Sara Thornton’s husband, Tom, will have hip replacement surgery this Wednesday.

Carla Kyser was in our services yesterday and was her usual cheerful self.

It was also good to see Miss Kittie Camp in our morning service yesterday.

I had two meetings yesterday afternoon so I did not get to the Hallelujah Festival until around 6:30PM.  I was amazed at the number of vehicles in the parking lot and the CAB was teeming with people.  I am told that between 5:30 – 6:00PM you literally could not get in the CAB due to the sheer number of people.  Amazing!

TJ & Lindsey Vice did a nice job of coordinating this ministry opportunity and they had tons of helpers.  Thank you to each person who helped in any way with the set up, the games and the clean up.   Thank you to those who gave candy!

Want to hear the greatest news of the night?  Two young men prayed to receive Jesus as their personal Savior!  Much evangelism was done and Jonny Gaston led that ministry.  We give God the glory!

Prayer time in the auditorium tonight from 5:00 – 7:00PM.   Use the West side door to enter/exit.

Cubs win! Cubs win!  Cubs win!  (Disclaimer – I am not a fan of the Indians or the Cubs and did not even watch last night’s game)  Will the Indians close the deal tomorrow night?  If so, Pastor Jack will be ecstatic!  If not, Pastor Wes will be.  Regardless of who wins this thing, I will have at least one happy fellow minister.  Me?  Focused on Baton Rouge this Saturday night at 7:00PM!  LOL!

I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.
