I spoke to Eddie Albritton earlier this morning and the arrangements are still pending for his brother-in-law, Charles Keyes.  Everything will take place in the Laurel, MS area at a date TBD.  Keep praying for Wendy and the family.

I did not visit with Jason’s dad yesterday.  Either Bro. Abel or I will do so today.  Laura tells me that he is doing well and “may” be moved to a room at some point today.  Keep praying!

Regular schedule on our campus today – 10:00AM & 6:30PM.

Special offering for our Refresh project this Sunday, 1/25.  Tired of hearing about this offering?  Me too.  Let’s give and reach our goal and I will say nothing else except “to God be the glory!”  This is in my letter for this week regarding this special offering, “You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. ‘For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.'”  (II Corinthians 9:7 NLT)

I spoke with someone yesterday about our special day on Sunday, 2/15, and it got me excited just thinking about it!  I can tell you that it does involve food and that makes even a Baptist shout!  Just saying.  Details this Sunday, 1/25.

Proposed budget presentation this Sunday, 1/25, beginning at 4:00PM.  Affirmation of budget’s adoption during our 5:00PM service.

Evangelist Dan Lanier will be with us Sunday, 2/22, through Wednesday, 2/25.  Pray, pray and then pray some more!

The dates of January 18, 19 & 20 are significant to me as nine years ago Miss Mary Lee Owen’s passed on the 18th, Miss Kathleen Henderson passed on the 19th and then Carla Felps Kyser passed on the 20th.  Death stings even nine years later!  Pray for these families!

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