Today’s Bible reading – 1 Kings 6-7; Luke 20:27-47
Word came to me late yesterday afternoon that Mrs. Irma Hamilton, Maria Wainwright’s mother, passed from this life. She fought cancer for a long time and was very valiant in doing so. She was lovingly supported by her husband, her son, and her two daughters along with the rest of the family. Arrangements are pending but there will be something in Louisiana as well as something in Grand Bay. Pray for the family as they walk through this valley.
Word also came to me that Karla Teasley Bosarge’s maternal aunt, Jan Woods, passed from this life yesterday. She lived in New York. Pray for her family.
Phil Sims is in a regular room and tells me that his doing good. I know Phil and he is no ready to be discharged. He is thinking tomorrow but I am thinking maybe Monday or Tuesday. We shall see.
Jimmy Tagert’s mother remains in the hospital. Keep praying.
Keep praying for Becky Sellers in her battle against cancer.
Anna Arrington sent me a message late yesterday afternoon saying that she passed the Praxis. (I think that is a small Toyota hybrid car but I am not for certain!). What does this mean? It means that she will now get to student teach this Fall and graduate in December with a degree in Spanish education. Congratulations Anna!

“Thank you” to each person who helped with the service for the men from the Mission of Hope last night. There was food aplenty. Randall, Rita, Adrianna & Sophia did a very nice job of sharing in song. (Actually, Sophia carried that group in my opinion. Just saying!). Good service.
Regular schedule tomorrow morning and evening. Lord willing, I will be in the pulpit all three services. Buildings & Grounds Committee will meet at 5:00PM in their regular place. Student movie night in the youth building following the evening service. SNBA in the CAB following the evening service.
The group traveling to see the replica of Noah’s ark will depart from the church parking lot at 12:30PM tomorrow. Pray for them as they travel.

Spent hours riding the weed eater yesterday. More to do today. John Milton called me over to give him some help/advice with his garden. He is learning!
