One of the three teens involved in the off road accident Wednesday afternoon remains in the hospital and will have surgery today.  It is not a life threatening surgery.  Pray that all goes well.

Danny & Pam Lewis seemed pleased with the service for Pam’s mother yesterday.  I pray that God was glorified.  I appreciate Warren & Cecil Guidry and Sammy & Myrtle Bowden for attending that service.  (Miss Vinnie was also going to attend but I gave her other duties which prevented her from attending).

The visitation with the Larry McConnell family will take place today at Mobile Memorial Funeral Home Chapel from 1:00PM until the 2:00PM service time.  Thank you to Miss Vinnie Brewer and those who are helping feed the McConnell family today.  What a trooper Miss Vinnie is!

John Milton Ladnier will have a scan done on Tuesday, 10/19.  If there is no cancer present elsewhere in his body, surgery will take place the following Tuesday, 10/26.  Pray for good results from the scan.

No real updates/changes from the others for whom we have been praying.  Just keep praying!

Keith Barrett had a visit with his doctor yesterday and got a good report.  His and Aninha’s ticket situation for the trip to Brazil was resolved – praise the Lord!  Their friend, Mary, is responding well to treatments which is a God thing.

We need folks to step up to the plate regarding the Trail of Truth and Treats.  What does that mean?  Host a booth, trunk, whatever from 4:00PM until 6:30PM on Sunday, 10/31.  This can be families, SS classes, deacons, staff, whomever.  Contact TJ or Lindsey Vice or Bro. Abel if you will help.  Time is of the essence.

I will meet with Eddie Albritton this morning to discuss the basketball sign up schedule.

Read an interesting article regarding the Amish community in Lancaster, PA.  They did not go into a lockdown and even took communion from the same cup.  Yes, they had the virus among them but they reach “herd immunity” and had no catastrophic loss of lives.  Interesting!

There will be some most interesting football games in the SEC tomorrow.  The best games are early (11:00AM) and then late (6:00PM and later).  Someone told me this week that Alabama got beat last Saturday night but I refuse to believe that – LOL!

Regular schedule on our campus this Sunday morning and evening.

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