Today, February 9, 2022, marks the fiftieth anniversary of Edna Miller Holifield Glover serving as secretary for the Friendship family.  What a milestone.  I love and appreciate Miss Edna.  Congratulations, Miss Edna.

We will have a normal schedule on our campus today – morning and evening.

The visitation with the Morgan family takes place tomorrow afternoon, 2/10, from 3:00PM until 5:00PM at Serenity Funeral Home in Theodore.  The celebration of life service will take place Friday from Sweet Water, Alabama.  Pray for the Morgan family during this time of loss.

Bro. Abel tells me that our soccer number is now at two hundred and seven and that registration is closed.  He has all of the coaches and officials needed for the leagues.  Very nice. Pray for this ministry.

Pray for revival!  Our schedule this Sunday, 2/13, is as follows – Sunday School begins at 9:15AM, worship at 10:30AM and then worship at 5:00PM.  Please note that there will be NO early worship service (someone please tell Amy Switzer!) and no activities in the afternoon/evening outside of the 5:00PM worship service.  YAM!

Anyone interested in taking part in our June 16 – 23, 2022 GRACE Ministries mission trip must let me know via email no later than Sunday, 2/20.  This includes those who have already signed up!  The regulations have changed regarding the entering of Guatemala in regards to the vaccination which is having a negative impact on our participants.  Email me at pastor@friendshipfamily.net like yesterday if you plan on joining us.

Speaking of Guatemala, our team of six had a good day of ministry yesterday.  More dental, more building and house dedications all took place.  Our students sang for the team yesterday morning.  Our music teacher, Sabrina, did a great job of leading these students.

The team leaves this morning heading to the lake for a couple of days to just rest and relax.  I will head to the city in order to fly home tomorrow afternoon.  I have appreciated the ten folks who have ministered here these past two weeks.  Really great folks!

I also appreciate Bro. Jerry, Bro. Abel and our deacons for ministering in my absence during this time.  They have done great!

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