“A special “Thank You” to the Friendship Church family and friends for an awesome 50th Anniversary recognition as church secretary. Thank you for all the calls, cards, gifts, and most of all your love though the years. It has been such a wonderful experience working alongside Bro. Robbie, Bro. Teddy, Bro. Jerry, Bro. Abel, and Miss Kittie whom I greatly appreciate as they are all servants of God.

A special “Thank You” also goes to Katelyn Johnson and her crew as she/they planned and put together my Anniversary fellowship. “Thank you” to all of you who came and took time to make this day special for me.

I am humbled and grateful for the lovely necklace/pendant given to me by the church family. It’s absolutely beautiful!

I am looking forward to continuing my serving and walking with the Lord as He leads!”

Love,

Edna Grace Miller Holifield Glover

This entry is late.  No excuse except to say that Jamie Jordan had asked to write today’s blog entry but I cannot wait on her any longer!  Just saying!

Dale Gaulden is seemingly at death’s door.  I noticed a huge change when I visited him yesterday morning.  Honestly, I expect a message any moment to say that he has passed from this life.  My plan is to visit him again as soon as our morning service is over.  Pray for Dale.  Pray for his wife, Grace and the rest of the family.

Yesterday was “get out of the hospital day!”  Miss Ida Mae Jowers, Ann Clark and Carter Busby were all discharged yesterday.  Praise the Lord!  Thank you for praying!

Tim & Peggy Knighten became grandparents again yesterday as Kara gave birth to Carter Jay Phillips.  He checked in at seven pounds and four ounces and is twenty and one half inches long.  Mother & son are doing great!

Speaking of Tim, he has a meeting with his oncologist tomorrow.  Pray for that to go well.

Steve & Virginia made it to Iowa.  They will return home on Saturday even though the service for Virginia’s mother will not place until next Monday.  Steve has a biopsy on Monday and it really does not need to be delayed any longer.  Pray for Steve & Virginia.

I continue to pray for Jeanette Bates in her recovery.

All is well in Guatemala.  The economy will boom today as Lisa is in Antigua all day!  (Lee Fore and Joey Switzer – how about helping a brother!)

Regular schedule on our campus this morning and tonight.

Deacon ordination for Eddie Albritton this Sunday evening, 4/3, at 6:00PM.

I think the winner of the UNC vs Duke game will win it all.  While I am not a fan of Coach K, it would only be fitting for him to go out on top.  (It hurts to write that!)

I pray that you will have a great Wednesday with Jesus!
