A really good Sunday!  God blessed and I am grateful!  Pastor Wes Bates did a really nice job of preaching the Word in our morning services.  I gladly gave the pulpit to him in order to remember his grandfather, Pastor L.G. Camp, Jr. as last Friday, 12/16, marked the fiftieth anniversary of Pastor Camp’s promotion to Heaven.  What a special time for Miss Kittie and the entire Camp family.  I am certain that Bro. L.G. would be very proud of his preacher grandson!

Bro.  L.G. would have been equally proud of his choir directing daughter, Jeanette Bates.  She did a great job of leading our adult choir as they led us in worship last night.  What a blessing to see the choir loft filled and to hear the musical praise lifted to God.  It was a worship experience for me!

Hats off to James Mareno for coming through in the clutch last night.  The South side of Grand Bay lost electricity just before 5:00PM yesterday.  Obviously, our church building is on the South side of town.  So, James got his sound system, his generator and borrowed lights from Jerry Graham (thank you Jerry!).  By 6:00PM, with the help of a good number of men, we were set up and ready for the service.  Yes, the constant rain and the lack of electricity affected our attendance but when all was said and done we had a really nice attendance.  The most important thing is that God was there and for that we are most grateful!  It was a real blessing that no one panicked and there were no negative words when the electricity went out.  Everyone remained calm and just did what had to be done in order for the service to take place.  Is that awesome or what!  To God be the glory!

Lisa Thompson will have a bone marrow test this morning.  It was a blessing so see Lisa in our service last night.

Carla Kyser remains in the hospital.  There is a possibility that she will be discharged today.  She is pretty upset with me that I have not visited with her yet.  I figure she will get over it but do have plans to be the first person she sees whenever she wakes up this morning!

Tommy Johnson’s mother, Miss Willa Dean, is back in the hospital battling pneumonia.  She is on a vent.  This is a constant battle for her.

Becky Sellers is having a tough time.  She and Dave need our continued prayer support.  There probably will not be anything new to report until she has scans in early January.

Tim Knighten was in our services yesterday.  He has lost weight.  He is still eating/drinking some although he told me most things have no taste and water tastes salty.  Tim has maintained a great attitude through everything up to this point.  A blessing!

Carol Lucky’s daughter is in the hospital.  I hope to get a report on her condition today.

Bill Kendrick is scheduled to have surgery tomorrow.  I am in hopes they can fix that “Ole Miss gene” in his brain and that he will come out of this thing cheering for the right team!  BTW, it is carpal tunnel surgery.

Ray Baber (hip replacement) and Elizabeth Martin (ACL repair) are both scheduled for surgery next week.

Regular schedule this Wednesday morning and evening!

Christmas Eve service from 5:00 – 6:00PM.  Lord’s Supper.  Much musical praise.  Going to be great!

Christmas Day service at 10:30AM.  No other services/activities on that day.

The Jack Lastorka/Rusty Suthoff challenge bowling fellowship on Sunday, 1/1/17, from 8:00 – 10:00PM.  This is a church wide fellowship as we have the entire bowling center to ourselves.

I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.  Share the Light!
