It is shortly after 12:30PM on Monday, 4/3.  The medical folks feel that Mama may actually still be having a heart attack per the various tests.  So, the doctor is moving her to Huntsville Hospital with the hopes of doing a heart cath late this afternoon and then they will decide what is next.  Lisa and I will decide our next move once Mama gets to Huntsville.  We are simply waiting on the ambulance to come transport her.  Thank you for checking on her and for the prayers.

This will be short and sweet – explanation coming.

Terrel Brooks was taken to the hospital by ambulance last night.  Low oxygen and low blood pressure.  They have sent him home and a nurse will see him this morning and they will set him up for oxygen at home.  Keep praying for Terrel & Marie.

Bill Kendrick was not able to attend our services yesterday.  Keep praying for Bill as he recovers from home.  Pray for Debbie as she provided care during this recovery time.

I do not have an update on Michelle Fore’s mother but do ask you to join me in continuing to pray for her and the family.

Dale Ellerman is schedule to come home tomorrow.  Keith & Aninha will travel to Birmingham to bring Dale home.  Continue to pray for Dale.

Sammy & Myrtle have an appointment with the oncologist today.  Pray for wisdom for all involved.

At 2:00AM my brother, Eddie, called to confirm that our Mama has suffered a heart attack.  How severe?  Unknown at this point in time.  She is being hospitalized and the doctor says a plan will be in place by morning.  If needed, she will be moved to Huntsville Hospital.  I do not think this is a “life or death” situation at this point but her fifth favorite child and his wife are quickly making ready to leave as Mama is eight-four years old.  Pray for Mama and pray for Lisa and me to have traveling mercies.

The church auditorium will be open today from 4:00PM until 7:00PM for a time of prayer.  Come and go.  The West side door will be open.

Bro. Jerry, Bro. Abel, Bro. Dylan and our nine deacons stand ready to assist with any ministries needs that may arise in my absence.  We “plan” to be home tonight but that is not written in stone.

If you need to contact me, text Lisa at (251) 259 8072.  Her phone is always on while mine is the total opposite.  Just FYI.

I wanted to be more detailed in my thanks to those who worked at the church the past Saturday but suffice it to say a huge “thank you!” for now.  You guys did an awesome job!

Regular schedule on our campus this Wednesday morning and evening.

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