The visitation (9:00 – 11:00AM) and the celebration of life service (11:00AM) for Martez Richerson take place today at Serenity Funeral Home in Theodore, Alabama.  Burial will be in Serenity Memorial Gardens.  Pray for Norman, his children and the entire Richerson family.

As far as I know, everything else is ok in South Mobile County.  I have heard of no more cases of the virus among our church family members.  I do not, and will not, list the names of those who test positive for the virus as that is a private matter.  If someone decides to post their own diagnosis on social media then that is their decision.  I still choose to not post names.

The team in Guatemala had a good Monday as they worked until noon and then headed to Antigua around 2:00PM.  They enjoyed a nice meal and great fellowship at Las Antorchas in Antigua.  Basically, five more houses were built leaving five more to be built today.  That means ten houses need to received concrete today.  Lord willing, those two things will happen.

I am proud of our folks on this trip and their attitudes.  Pastor Doug Chappelle should be equally proud of the folks from Thelma Baptist Church as they have been super!  We actually have three folks from Florida, one person from Minnesota and one person from Texas with us.  They have also have had great attitudes!  God is good!

My wife, Lisa, left Guatemala for home yesterday.  However, she only made it to Atlanta as her flight from ATL to Mobile was cancelled.  So, she spent the night in a hotel and is supposed to land in Gulfport, MS this morning.  Pray that happens!

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