Running a bit late this morning with this entry – sorry!  I made another mistake!  Can you believe it?  (At least my phone did not go off during the service last night – just saying!)  I listed the men who helped with loading the container yesterday and that list was correct.  However, I failed to mention that Eddie Albritton spent Monday night helping move boxes from place to place in order to be ready for the container’s arrival.  I call on Eddie often and he always is willing to help.  I knew that he could not be present yesterday morning due to work thus the call to help Monday night.  My apologies to Eddie.  (Actually, Eddie borrows money from me regularly and has not paid me back in full so that is part of how he pays – just FYI)  My only question is, “why did Tim Knighten not come help load the container? He is off work!)

No significant changes in the lives of those folks for whom we have been praying.  Just keep praying!

Thanksgiving lunch for our senior adults today.  Begins at 10:00AM and concludes at noon.  Everything in our CAB.  All senior adults from the Friendship family are invited to attend!  Thank you to those who helped set up last night, cooked turkeys, cooked the other foods, donated door prizes, et cetera.

Important news for the members of the Friendship family – this Sunday, November 20, we will once again have only one morning worship service which will begin at 10:30AM.  Our day will begin with Sunday School at 9:15AM and will conclude with our evening worship service at 6:00PM.  Please pass the word as there will not be an early worship service.

Our basketball leagues practices have begun and all is well.  I think we are going to have another great season.  Bro. Abel and Kristi Siker are leading this ministry.

I am loving these cooler temperatures – good stuff!

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

Special thanks to the following eleven men for their help in loading the container this morning – Keith Barrett, Joey Bosarge, Sammy Bowden, Tyrone Crawley, Abel Garcia, Jonny Gaston, Bill Kendrick, David McCarthy, Phil Morgan, Shawn Siker, and Dylan Westbrook.

I so appreciate folks who always answer the call to help!  What a blessing!

Today is Buddy Jones’ sixty third birthday.  There is not a week that goes by that I do not think about Buddy – precious memories!

Had the privilege of visiting with Steve & Virginia Morris yesterday morning.  Steve was in a much better place.  Still not sure what is next but do ask that you keep praying!  Steve & Virginia are a great couple.

I have not talked to Tim or Peggy since Sunday night but do ask that you join me in continuing to pray for Tim’s complete recovery.

Still praying for Myrtle Bowden.

Ditto for Shawn Grant.

Senior adults of the Friendship family, please join us in the morning from 10:00AM until noon for a Thanksgiving meal.  If you did not sign up, no problem – just show up at 10:00AM.

Regular schedule on our campus today – morning and evening.

Lord willing, loading a container this morning beginning at 8:00AM.  Help needed and appreciated.  West parking lot at the church.

Not surprised at all that Donald Trump has thrown his hat in the ring to be the next president.  Maybe by the time that election takes place, they will almost have the ballots counted from this past election!  Just saying!

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

I did not get knocked over by folks wanting to help with the loading of the container in the morning.  So, we are taking all comers beginning at 8:00AM (11/16/22).  Come one, come all!  McGyver cannot be there so we are running in mud from the beginning!  Can you spare an hour?  If so, just show up!  Thank you!  Blessings!

Todays marks Miss Kittie Camp’s 95th birthday.  Still hard to imagine her being gone but it is comforting to know that she is home with Pastor L.G. Camp, Jr.  Pray for Jeanette and family today.

Steve Morris remains in the hospital.  There is still some “confusion” as to exactly what the next step(s) will be for Steve.  Keep praying.

Myrtle is being given a couple of weeks break from treatments and such.  Pray for this to be a good time of rest, recovery and with her family.

Senior adults, if you have not let Bro. Jerry know yet, please contact him today regarding the meal this Thursday, 11/17.

Friendship family, if you can help load a container in the morning beginning at 8:00AM, please let me know today.  Should be finished in about an hour.

Regular schedule on our campus tomorrow morning and evening.

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

Bro. Jerry Hovel is hosting a Thanksgiving meal for the senior adults of the Friendship family.  This will take place this Thursday, 11/17, from 10:00AM until noon.  Thank you to those who have signed up already.  If you are a senior adult and have not signed up, please contact Bro. Jerry (251) 445 5412.

Also, I need some men to help load a container this Wednesday, 11/16, beginning at 8:00AM.  If you can help, please send me an email (pastor@friendshipfamily.net) or send my wife, Lisa, a text at 251 259 8072.  It would help if I could hear from those able to help by noon tomorrow (Tuesday).

We only have one hour to get the container loaded so we should finish by 9:00AM.  Nothing heavy this time.

Thank you!

What a great Sunday at Friendship!  The spirit was excellent, the attendance was very good and the fellowship was so sweet.  Our deacons, staff and their wives hit it out of park when it comes to hosting the supper (sure did miss Katelyn though).  Stacy Dyess was, once again, spot on with the meat and beans.  Jeanette and her “youth choir” were excellent!  God used Pastor Randy to speak a most excellent Word to us as a church family.  Just an all around great day of blessings by our great God!  Thank you Friendship family and glory to God!

What a huge surprise to see Tim Knighten in both of our worship services yesterday!  I was amazed!  Just amazed!  Keep praying for Tim!

Steve Morris has been moved from the rehab into a regular room.  Not sure what all of that means but keep praying for Steve & Virginia!

Obviously, Myrtle Bowden was missed in our services yesterday as she is such a huge part of the Friendship family.  We all know that if it were humanly possible Myrtle would have been present.  Keep praying for Myrtle & Sammy daily.

We are on a regular schedule for this Wednesday – morning and evening.  I hope to be joined by many members of the Friendship family along with guests.

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

Heard from Tim & Peggy around noon today and they were heading home.  Pray for them as they will most likely drive all the way.

Aninha’s cousin, Sally, passed from this life yesterday afternoon.  Pray for her husband and the rest of the family as they walk through this valley.

I made a mistake in my earlier entry today.  Imagine that – me making a mistake!  Anyway, Steve Morris did not have a radiation treatment yesterday.  They set everything up for one.  I misunderstood.  My apologies.  Keep praying!
