Wow, one week from Christmas Day 2024!  Amazing!

I do not have an update on Eddie Brinkman but “assume” that he was discharged from the hospital yesterday.  The fault for me not knowing lies squarely at my feet.  I will get an update today.  Keep praying for Eddie & Lisa.

JoNell Barnes was transported by ambulance yesterday afternoon to the hospital.  She was finally admitted late last night.  It “appears” her problem is low potassium as all of the other tests came back good.  Hopefully, she will be discharged at some point today.

Speaking of JoNell brings to mind Tim Knighten’s brother who went to a Western state to have knee replacement surgery.  Unfortunately, he suffered a stroke behind one of his eyes a day or so before his surgery.  Not good.  Pray for Tim’s brother.  I think we will come back home later this week.

Pastor Clint Landry messaged me this morning to let me know that his father-in-law, Donnie Hughes, will be having triple bypass surgery on his heart today.  Pray for all to go well.

I left fairly early yesterday morning to go visit our friend, Decker Terry, in Montgomery.  Lisa called me about an hour into the drive to let me know that Decker had entered Heaven.  I call Sherry and made the decision to go ahead to Montgomery.  I arrived shortly after the the hospice nurse and was able to be there with the family and caregivers until they removed Decker’s body.  I am sad for Decker’s family and friends but I am happy for Decker as his prayer has been answered.  Arrangements pending.  Pray for the family.

Senior adult holiday meal today from 10:00AM until noon.  Looking forward to it!

Our Christmas Eve service has always taken place from 5:00PM until 6:00PM which will be the case again this year.  We will start promptly at 5:00PM and end absolutely no later than 6:00PM.  O come let us adore Him!

By the way, regular service on our campus this Sunday morning and evening.  Praying for a full house!

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