“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.” (Psalm 119:11)

This entry is late.  Courtney Cavin told me at our Christmas Eve service that she would post for me today and that would be her Christmas gift to me.  I told her it had to be posted no later than 6:00AM and she assured me it would.  Well, it is almost 7:30AM and no entry!  I am ok with that because she told me that if she did not follow through on her pledge then her daughter, Blakeley, would say “Roll Tide” the next time I see her at church – sweet!

The church office is closed today and, as normal, will be closed on Friday.  However, I am in town and available, if needed.  FYI, the office will only be closed on Wednesday of next week which means it will be on regular hours Monday, Tuesday & Thursday.  There will be no activities on our campus New Year’s Day.

This Sunday, 12/29, we will only have one service on our campus and that will begin at 10:30AM.  The buses will not be running their routes, no early service, no Sunday School, no Discipleship Training, and no evening service.  I am in hopes of having a packed house for that one service.

I want to remind folks to consider, if necessary, to check your giving record to the Lord through the church for 2019.  It is very common for some folks to use the last few days of a calendar year to make significant financial contributions.  Remember, you can give online at any time.  Obviously, we will receive an offering in our service this Sunday.

Also, we are still in hopes of having the salaries for all fourteen teachers/administrators in Colegio JET covered for 2020.  The base salary is five thousand dollars for the entire year.  If you want to use this as a tax deduction in 2019 then your check must be dated no later than 12/31/19 or your online gift must be given by 12/31/19.  Need more information on this?  Contact Deidra or me personally.

Speaking of Deidra, she and Soy will leave in the morning driving to Atlanta for their return flight to Guatemala.  The girls will stay here until January 6, 2020.  It has certainly been good having Deidra and the girls here.  They will be greatly missed!

Christmas Day 2019 on the hill consisted of two family meals and lots of fellowship.  It was a good day.

A quick look at the ten day weather forecast shows us getting no cold weather – not what I wanted to see!

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