THURSDAY, 9/29/11

Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?  Christmas ’11 will be here tomorrow!  Wow, September ’11 is gone!  Being “as slow as Christmas” might not be too slow after all!

Read online this morning about the illness associated with the cantaloupes from Colorado.  Basically, if you have purchased a cantaloupe recently and do not know where it came from originally then throw it away.

Pray for the pastor in Iran who has been sentenced to death simply because he has refused to recant his faith in Jesus Christ.  It may not happen as the pressure is on Iran from other countries to not allow it.  However, you have to admire the steadfastness of a 34 year old man who has refused to turn his back on Jesus.  As I understand it, he has a wife and two sons.

Louise Morris is about the same.  Judy Brooks has been moved from the ICU to a regular room.  Laurie Chandler continues to recover at home.  Blo Joe Guidry is in the early days of fifteen weeks of PT.  Pray for these folks.

Martha Patrick’s step-son, Jimmy, passed away yesterday.  He was 78 years old.  There will be a visitation tomorrow morning, 9/30, from 10:00AM until noon.  A service will be held at noon.  Everything will take place at Serenity.  Pray for the Patrick family.

We had a good day in our services yesterday.  We began chasing a Goose in our 8:00PM Bible study.  The 7:00PM auditorium crowd was down a bit which I guess was because of the rain.  I do thank God for rain we received yesterday.  Our potluck with the pastor went well.

Next Wednesday, Rita will lead a Spanish speaking Bible study in her home beginning at 7:15PM.  This is a nine week study on the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

Ladies, please remember the wedding shower for Thea Whalen.  It is this Sunday, 10/2, from 2:00 – 3:30PM in the fellowship hall.  Thea is registered at Walmart & Target.

I am having a hard time believing that the Braves & Red Sox both missed the playoffs.  The Braves are the first team in the history of MLB to lose an eight game lead in September.  Incredible!

Lisa and I are going to be away for a couple of days.  Most likely, I will not post again until Monday, 10/3.  Lord willing, I will be in the pulpit for all four services this Sunday, 10/2.  I am doing the wedding for Shea & Brandon on Saturday night.  By the way, the members of the Friendship family are invited.  It begins at 5:00PM at the Promise Land in Irvington.

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