SATURDAY, 9/7/19
“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.” (Psalm 119:11)
The visitation and service for Miss Kathryn Butler takes place today. Visitation begins at 10:00AM and lasts until the noon service time. Pray for the family. Those bringing food to help minister to the family need to have it in the fellowship hall no later than 11:00AM today.
Tracy Smith, the cousin of Jason Taylor, for whom we have been praying due to her battle with cancer passed from this life yesterday afternoon. She was fifty five years of age. Pray for the family as they walk through this valley.
Paul Brown, brother-in-law of Elaine Brinkman Brown, passed from this life and his visitation/service also takes place today. Visitation begins at 11:00AM and lasts until the noon service time. Everything is at the Heritage Funeral Home in Escatawpa, Mississippi. Pray for the Brown family.
Regular schedule on the Friendship campus tomorrow morning and evening. One very exciting addition is that we will begin our AWANA ministry at 5:00PM. They will initially gather in the auditorium before dividing into their respective groups. Pray for this ministry and pass the word!
Evangelist Johnny Tucker and his wife, Miss Judy, will be our guests tomorrow morning. Bro. Johnny will preach in our two morning services. Yes, Lord willing, I will be in attendance but no preaching.
Faith Academy, Mobile Christian, Resurrection and Theodore all won last night. Bryant was not able to join that group but hopefully they will win a game soon. By the way, Danville won last night which was their first win in like two years.
We survived Bob! LOL! We delivered Bob to his sister early yesterday afternoon. I then headed North where I was able to spend some good quality time with my parents. Dad was a very happy camper as he had been to the doctor and the catheter is no more – hallelujah! Dad looked and sounded better to me than he has in months. He is not using any aid in his walking. His blood pressure is a bit low but otherwise I think he is doing good. He asked that I say “thank you” to those who have prayed for him. He is grateful. I am grateful to my brother, Eddie, and his wife, Sue, for all they do for dad and mama.
Are the Braves hot or what? Leslie Hacker has them dialed in right now! They beat Bobby & the boys again last night. Do not look now but the Diamondbacks are making a hard push for one of those wild card spots in the NL.
There will be a few good college football games today/tonight. Alabama & Auburn will not be involved in those. USM vs MSU; A&M at Clemson and LSU at Texas should be good ones. Lisa, the girls, Jayden and I plan on joining Bob at the Bama game – it is going to be hot!
I pray that you will have a great Saturday with Jesus.
