Our Spring work day begins this morning at 7:00AM. I am about to go get the biscuits (out of the oven?) while Lisa goes to Sugar Rush for the sugar fix. We need as many hands on deck as possible. We will finish no later than noon.
I need a few men to leave the work day and help me with a ministry project today. Pole saws, lopers, weed eaters, rakes, et cetera are needed. No riding mowers needed. John Milton Ladnier got a jump on this ministry project yesterday. I appreciate that so much!
The Friendship soccer leagues begin play today at 8:00AM. All games will be on the middle school campus. Thanks to all who are helping with these leagues. We have well over one hundred children involved. Pray for this ministry.
Regular schedule tomorrow morning and evening. Deacons meet at 4:00PM. Missions Committee meets at 5:00PM. SNBA at 7:00PM.
The celebration of life service for Lisa Davie Thompson takes place at 2:00PM tomorrow, 4/1, from the chapel of Serenity Funeral Home. Visitation with the family one hour prior to the service. Pray for Britnie, Mr. Jack, Brenda and all of the family.
Greg Boutwell was discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon. Hooray!
Sharon Jardee remains in the hospital and, as far as I know, so does her sister, Ruby Gulley. Pray for these ladies. I am going to try to squeeze in a visit this afternoon.
Deacon Bill Kendrick visited with Oscar Petersen yesterday afternoon and said he is doing really good. Still a bit unsteady on his feet but otherwise is doing well. Keep praying for Oscar.
Rusty moved out at 11:59PM last night. I said, “why are you leaving so late?” to which he replied, “getting as much out of my rent as possible!” I said, “you have not been paying rent which is why you got evicted!” No reply. He did tell me that he cranked the air conditioner unit down to sixty as he was walking out the door? (Just wanted to awaken Charles this morning!).
Was able to get the garden plowed yesterday. A very, very good friend gave me a basically brand new tiller and it is sweet! I am very grateful!
SEC, SEC, SEC! First, I did not even know the NCAA women’s tourney semifinals were being played last night. Just being honest. Second, I did not know that South Carolina and Mississippi State were in those games. However, when I saw that State upset UConn I was happy for them. An all SEC final. Sweet! I want to commend UConn’s coach, Geno Auriemma, for the way he handled himself following their first defeat since 2014 – 111 consecutive wins! In my opinion, he was all class.
Looking forward to hopefully catching some of the men’s games tonight. Depends on what I get done today following work day. I am going with USC & Oregon to win tonight.
Here is a progress report on my chicken coup being built by Soy –
I pray that you will have a great Saturday with Jesus.
