Word came to me last night that John Milton Ladnier has been diagnosed with colon cancer. He will meet with a surgeon this Thursday. I have just told you everything I know about John’s situation. I am asking you to join me in praying for John, Teresa and family. John Milton is a really good guy, great church member and great neighbor.
The visitation with the Phillip Clark family will take place today from 11:00AM until the noon service. Pray for that service and for Phillip’s family.
I spoke to Pam Lewis yesterday. She will meet with the funeral directors this morning to make the arrangements for her mother’s celebration of life service. Pray for Pam.
Speaking of Pam, Danny had two biopsies yesterday. I did not speak to him to get an update but do ask that you pray for Danny. Danny is as good as they come!
Chuck Rockwell is keeping me updated on his wife’s (Beth) situation. They were to do a procedure yesterday to prevent a blood clot from moving to her heart or lungs. Pray for Beth and Chuck.
Keep praying for Myrtle Bowden as she continues to wait on doctor’s appointments.
Also, keep praying for Buddy Brewer.
I spoke to Linda McConnell yesterday. She is struggling emotionally. Pray for her. We are going to need someone to coordinate the meal for the McConnell family on Friday as Tina Wilkinson will not be available. Any takers?
Lisa and I went to the visitation for Pastor Lamon Forrest yesterday. We could not stay for the service as it conflicted time wise with the service for Evangelist James Messer. We were well received and very thankful to have been able to attend.
I went from Serenity to First Dawes. Mike Moreland came and sat by me before, and during, the service. He is doing well and is teaching an adult Sunday School class. Good for Mike! How about Janice Moreland? She was there but she did not sit with Mike and me. As a matter of fact, she did not even speak to me – what is up with that?
I also saw Music Evangelist Phillip Willis at the service for Bro. James. He is still going strong at eighty two years of age.
By the way, Lisa and I have a good day with my mama last Friday. Lunch at the Old Cook Stove and then supper from Southern Hickory Bar-b-que – heaven for me!
Sign up has begun for our children’s basketball leagues. Eddie Albritton is coordinating these leagues so contact him for the details. The first day of sign up (last Friday) was strong.
Here is an odd request – does anyone have one of those “fit bit” type watches for a man that they are no longer using? If so, I will buy it from you. Obviously, need one that works. I am asking for someone else (not a friend). If you can help, contact me, please.
I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus.
