Pastor's Blog

I really can’t explain it but I must have been in a fog when I wrote yesterday’s entry as I forgot to mention the two salvations from Sunday morning’s services.  Praise the Lamb of God for providing salvation to Cameron & Westley.  Hallelujah!

I heard through the grapevine that Bobby Jack Felps is having a heart cath this morning.  Pray for him.  I really don’t have any other updates as my yesterday was consumed with meetings and other things that kept me in the office until late yesterday afternoon.  (I am trying to get on Joe David’s list of hardest working pastors) 

As I expected, the Friendship family responded well to the need for host homes for the MBI Chorale.  We only have three or four homes hosting four members of the Chorale with all of the others hosting two.  Thank you for being so gracious! 

Here is what we need now – desserts for the meal on Friday afternoon and five “pound cakes” for Saturday morning.  You can sign up tomorrow morning/evening or this Sunday, 3/7. 

Just found out yesterday that our student ministry has about twenty 2010 Scripture calendars for sale at $3 each.  First come, first served.  These are great calendars with beautiful photos.  They will be available tomorrow & Sunday.

The TOF takes place this Saturday, 3/6, from 5:00 – 7:00PM in the CAB.  Advance tickets are $10 each.  If you wait and buy them at the door, they will cost you $10 each so it is best to purchase them in advance.  Great food and even greater fellowship! 

As we “March to Easter” we need to put action to our commitments from this past Sunday night.  It is one thing to tell a staff member that you will support them but a whole different thing to actually do something. 

Our CAB renovation committee will share the first phase of this project in tomorrow services and asking the church to approve it.  I appreciate the work of Tony Hacker, chairman, and the whole committee. 

Al Gore wrote an op-ed for a New York paper this past weekend and stated that the unusually cold weather with the massive snow fall simply proves that global warming is indeed taking place.  The GW is causing more moisture to be in the air which leads to more snow.  So, there you have it! 

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