WEDNESDAY, 5/3/17

“As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” I Peter 4:10

Today’s Bible reading – 1 Kings 14-15; Luke 22:31-46

Sarah Thornton is scheduled to have one of her knees replaced early this morning.  Pray that all goes well.  Her husband, Tom, will be with her at the hospital.  In the meanwhile, Tom’s mother, will be having surgery at the same time in Birmingham.  Pray that surgery goes well too.

I received the following in an e-mail from Ethan Nelson yesterday afternoon regarding his sister, Shelby:

 “So the total is 1-shattered right shin, 1-broke left ankle, 1-cut tendon in the left hand and 2 broke bones in the right hand. She has surgery tomorrow to add a rod to her shin and hopefully put the pins in her hand. If the pins don’t go in her hand then they will do another surgery Thursday. She can’t feel the toes on her right foot, but she can move them.  The doctors are optimistic about her being able to keep her right leg. They said that she has a VERY long recovery ahead of her. We really appreciate the prayers and support from everyone in the church family.”

Obviously, Shelby needs our prayer support as does her family.

Debbie Kendrick’s mother is not doing well.  For the past couple of weeks Debbie has been telling me of her mother’s downward turn physically.  It seems she has more or less given up.  Pray for Debbie’s mother and all those involved.

Jimmy Tagert’s mother remains in the hospital with the possibility of being discharged this week.  I will visit with her today.

Phil Sims continues to be a happy camper at his house on the river!

There is a visitation tonight in Louisiana with the Irma Hamilton family.  Tomorrow, 5/4, there will be another visitation that will take place in our church auditorium from 10:00AM until the noon service time.  Carol Lucky is coordinating the feeding of the Hamilton family after tomorrow’s service.  Big family.  Lots of help needed.  Contact Carol if you can help.  Thank you!

It seems the arrangements have been set for Oscar Petersen’s son but I am going to hold off publishing them until it is definite.

As far as I know, the travelers are doing great.  I do not do social media so I am sure most of our blog readers (that would have to be at least seven since we have thirteen) know more about their adventures than me.  I am good with that.

Regular schedule this morning and evening.  The fare for the 7:30PM Bible study is cold subs.

A call for help from the Friendship family – Maria Wainwright is our custodian.  She will be in Louisiana tonight with her family.  We need help cleaning the auditorium and fellowship hall immediately following tonight’s 6:30PM service.  This is a “calling all hands” type of thing as it should not take long if enough folks help.  What can you bring?  A vacuum cleaner would be sweet.

Brad & Daphne are scheduled to leave this Friday heading to South Korea to meet their son.  Pray that all goes well.  In the meanwhile, Lisa and I will have their other three children so we definitely need prayer support!  LOL!

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