The Lord blessed us with a good day in our services yesterday.  Our attendance was up especially in our first service.  The spirit was excellent in all three services.  Praise the Lord!

The evening service gave me the opportunity to share the state of GRACE Ministries.  GRACE Ministries has never been in a better place than it is right now is spite of all that has taken place over the past two years plus.  The facilities, the grounds, the staff, the school and the church are all doing well.  Twelve teams has used the L.G. Camp, Jr mission house thus far in 2022 and ten more teams are scheduled to do likewise July through December.  A good number of teams have already booked their 2023 dates to use the mission house.  God is good!

This Sunday is a big day for the Friendship family.  We will have one worship service which will begin at 8:00AM.  No other activities on our campus then until 5:00PM.

Our church wide fellowship will begin at 5:00PM and will feature barbecue cooked by Stacey Dyess and the sides (potato salad/chips, baked beans, and dessert brought by those attending) and our cake auction.  Rumor has it that Miss Vinnie Brewer will be baking a cake for the auction.  One person told me last night that she plans on buying Miss Vinnie’s cake – not so fast my friend!  Just saying!  More details to come.

Steve Morris has had some better days as the doctor has taken him off his medication.  His voice is stronger and he is swallowing much better.  Pray for the doctor as they try to determine a plan of action moving forward.

Myrtle Bowden continues to battle her sickness but is growing weary.  Please keep praying for Myrtle.

We are on a regular schedule this Wednesday morning and evening.  I hope to be joined by many members of the Friendship family and guests.

Dale Ellerman and his family have expressed their profound thanks to the Friendship family for ministering to them during their time of loss.  I join them in saying “thank you” folks for a job well done.

Coach Mark Hubbard’s youngest son, Bray, has committed to play football at the University of Alabama.  Congratulations!

Also, congratulations to the Ole Miss baseball team – World Series champions!  How about that!  SEC, SEC, SEC!

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