My heart has been heavy for BJ Parson and his family the past couple of days.  Would you join me in praying for them?  The visitation will take place tomorrow (Thursday) night and the celebration of life service on Friday.  Pray for Pastor Doug Chappelle as he will preach the service.

Shawn Grant will have surgery tomorrow.  Pray for all to go well.

Regular schedule on our campus today – morning and evening.  I am praying for a strong attendance.

Happy thirty-third birthday to our daughter, Hien!  I pray that she will have a great day.

My world was rocked yesterday when I received word from Deidra that Nicole Parson had unexpectedly passed from this life.  Nicole is the wife of Pastor BJ Parson and mother of Bethany, Hudson and Eli.  BJ serves at Thelma Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Doug Chappelle.  Pray for BJ and his family as they walk through this dark valley.

Jerry & Sharon Poiroux will leave Guatemala a bit early as Kevin Glover’s mother-in-law passed from this life.  Jerry & Sharon will fly into Huntsville in order to be there for the service.  Pray traveling mercies and for Kevin and his family.

Things on GRACE Mountain are going well.  Deidra is excellent at leading teams.

Good morning from GRACE Mountain.  Again, I am always thrilled to hear that the Lord blessed the Friendship family with good services and such was the case yesterday.  Bro. Abel sent me a good report and I also heard from my wife, Lisa, and Kayla Hatcher.  Actually, I watched last night’s service live and then watched almost all of the morning service late last night.  I am thankful for Bro. Abel’s preaching the Word and for God’s continued blessings!

Shawn Grant is scheduled to have a total shoulder replacement surgery this Thursday, 2/6 – ouch!  Pray for Shawn and pray for all to go well.

Bro. Abel has a coach’s meeting set tonight at 6:00PM for those folks coaching in our Spring soccer league.  Wow, our sports ministry is non-stop.

The Inspirations will be in concert at Friendship this Friday, 2/7, beginning at 6:00PM.  A love offering will be received.  Pray for this special service.  Support it with your prayers, attending and giving.  Invite others!

The team in Guatemala is doing well.  Evangelist Michael Mason brought a good word from the Word yesterday morning and then again last night.  He and Pastor Adan baptized six folks as a part of the morning service.  That was the first time we have ever been able to have a baptismal service on our campus.  Deidra purchased a portable jacuzzi and it was placed on the basketball court to be used as a baptismal pool.  Worked well!  God is good!

I pray that you will have great Monday with Jesus.
