FRIDAY, 5/11/18
“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)
Good morning from Grand Bay, Alabama – home sweet home! Lisa and I arrived home safe and sound just before midnight last night. It was tough leaving Deidra and the three grandchildren but it was also a blessing to know that we were coming home to five more grandchildren. Life sure was simpler when Soy, Deidra and the girls lived next door! However, we are not looking for simple but rather service to Jesus as the main thing.
Wendy Johnston contacted me early yesterday morning to say that her mother had passed from this earthly life. Wendy knows her mother is now in Heaven but she is struggling with the sting of death. Pray for Wendy, her siblings and their families during this time of sorrow.
Mac McGriff had a heart cath on Wednesday. All was good enough that they can treat him with medications. Praise the Lord!
Robert Baria spent a night in the hospital but is now at home. It “appears” that his was medicine related. Pray for Robert!
Laurie Chandler’s mother is having surgery this morning. Pray that all goes well.
Really important notice here – any member of the Friendship family wishing to take part in the December 1 – 8, 2018 GRACE Ministries trip needs to contact me via e-mail immediately if not sooner! Have found a really good deal on tickets and need to make the purchase now if they are still at a good fare. Fares can change within a matter of minutes. If you do not know for absolute certain that I have your name on the list, please contact me. As of this writing, I have seven members of the Friendship family who have signed up. So, let me know today if not sooner! Very important that I find out immediately! Pass the word!
Our next to last soccer Saturday takes place this Saturday, 5/12. Pray for this ministry!
We will be receiving an offering to “bless Tess” this Sunday in all three of our services. Please pray and then give as the Lord leads! Lisa and I have been with Tess for the past several days and we are impressed!
I pray that you will have a great Friday with Jesus.
