Regular schedule on our campus tomorrow morning and evening.  Friendship family, please be faithful to attend.

Steve Morris remains at home under hospice care.  He has been having a little trouble eating but the one thing that is not giving him problem is sweets!  My wife helped him yesterday by baking and sending him a pound cake.  Steve was a happy camper when he saw that sweet!  Keep praying for Steve & Virginia.

Spoke to Sammy Bowden and he said that Myrtle is doing well at this point in time.  Continue to pray for Sammy & Myrtle.

Sharon Jardee remains basically homebound and in need of our prayer support.  Keep praying!

Peggy Knighten will have surgery this Thursday, 12/22.  Pray for all to go well.

We will NOT have a Christmas Eve service this year as we will gather at 10:00AM on Christmas Day for our regular Sunday worship.  That service will be our only one for this Sunday meaning there will be no Sunday School or evening service.  My hope is that we will completely fill the auditorium for this special service.  Let’s celebrate the birthday of the King of Kings – Jesus!  O come let us adore Him!

My goal is for us to receive at least fifty (50) new orders this Sunday, 12/25, during our service for the t-shirts for JZ Baker.  All orders and payments must be received by Wednesday, January 4, 2023.  By the way, there will be a meal on 1/4 before the evening service with all proceeds going toward funding JZ’s trip to Guatemala.

Out of town reader but want a t-shirt?  Contact Bibbi Bosarge (bibbibosarge1@gmail.com) or Daphne Hutto (daphnehutto@gmail.com) via email to order and to set up payment.

The church office will be closed Monday, 12/26, and will reopen on Tuesday, 12/27.

Today is forecast to be a cool, wet day for Southwest Alabama.  The forecasted high for tomorrow is sixty degrees and then it climbs to sixty-four on Thursday.  Thursday night all is expected to change drastically.  The low on Thursday night for us is predicted to be twenty-three degrees.  Here are the projected highs/lows for the three days following:  Friday – 35/20; Saturday – 38/21; Sunday – 42/23.  If the weather folks are correct with these predictions then we will have some of the coldest weather we have had in several years.  Four consecutive nights in the twenties – wow!  So, get ready!

I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus.  Stay dry and warm!
