Forgot to mention two things in my first entry today.  Another mistake by me – imagine that!

Tonight from 5:30 – 8:00PM Marcus Albritton & Eddie Hatcher will be in the CAB for basketball sign up and evaluations.  Our leagues are for boys and girls in the first through sixth grades.  Contact either of these guys for more information.

Second, Cecil Guidry tells me that the folks who have agreed to cook turkeys for the senior adults Thanksgiving meal can get those from her this Sunday, 11/11, at the church.  Please make sure that you only get your turkey from Cecil – no one else.

Also, those bringing sweet potato casseroles, fruit salads and cakes need to have those things at the church no later than 9:00AM on Thursday, November 15.

The CAB will be closed on Wednesday, 11/14, in order to set up for the meal the next day.

Please help pass the word about these matters.  If each of our readers contact one other person then we will reach thirty two people.  Thank you!

“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)

Let me begin with some amazing news!  (I like good news)  Aaron Chinners is in medical school at the University of South Alabama.  Yesterday, he was awarded a scholarship.  Ok, lots of folks get scholarships so what is the big deal?  Try a $160,000 scholarship!  Not $1,600 or $16,000 but one hundred and sixty thousand dollars!  Congratulations to Aaron!  To God be the glory.

Side note on the scholarship – one of the major reasons Aaron was awarded the scholarship is because of the mission trips he has taken to Guatemala.  Just saying!

I encourage all thirteen of our readers to go vote today.  I think you should stagger your times so as to not overwhelm the poll workers.  (By the way, if anyone anywhere has any questions, comments, complaints, et cetera about voting then just contact Kim Tillman – the lady knows it all when it comes to voting whether it is in Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, Washington, wherever!)

McKemie Place tonight.  Everyone invited to attend.  If you need more information then contact Randall or Rita Broome.

Ok, Aaron Chinner’s mother, Glenda, is about to drive me crazy!  (But hey what else is new – LOL!)  Glenda coordinates the angel tree ministry for the Friendship family.  She has a list of needy families and now needs sponsors.  Pleas contact Glenda to volunteer to help or for more information.  (I tried to tell her that we only have thirteen readers and five of those are out of town folks!)

Looking forward to hearing Pastor Wes Bates this Sunday morning in our services.  Pray for those services.

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