Becky Sellers met with the doctor this past Thursday and did not get a favorable report. As it stands now, she will be off treatments until early June. Plans call for her to go back to a medicine that they have used previously but Becky did not tolerate it well. Pray for Becky, Dave and family.
Jimmy Tagert told me yesterday morning that his mother remains in the hospital and will most likely be there for another week. She had another surgery last Wednesday and her body needs some recovery time.
If I understand correctly, Ethan Nelson’s sister, Shelby, will be discharged from the hospital today. I did not get a chance to talk to Ethan at church yesterday.
Lisa’s dad, Charles Clark, is having hip replacement surgery this morning. Pray that all goes well. I have rewritten his Will and plan on getting him to sign it after they put him almost out. It is the only way I will ever get in his will.
It was great seeing Oscar Petersen in Sunday School and our second morning service yesterday. What a great guy! Keep praying for Oscar.
Our GROW visitation tonight will feature our Adult & Youth Sunday School Departments. We will meet at 6:30PM in the fellowship hall and then meet back in the auditorium between 7:30 – 7:45PM. Once again, I am asking these department workers, staff, deacons, and other church leaders to join us for this ministry effort.
Our prayer time in the auditorium will begin at 5:00PM and will last until 6:30PM. Ideally, a person would come and pray and then join us for GROW. However, that will not be possible for everyone so if you cannot take part in GROW you are still encouraged to come and pray. Please enter/exit through the West side door.
We had a good day in our services yesterday. What a joy to recognize the mothers in attendance. Thank God for mothers! Our evening attendance was down somewhat but that is pretty normal for Mother’s Day. Jonny Gaston did a nice job of sharing the Word with us last night. I appreciate him and those who were faithful to attend.
Brad & Daphne arrived home safely from South Korea Saturday afternoon. They now await word for when they will go back to bring their son home.
I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.
