Pastor's Blog

Korie Fontenot saw the eye doctor yesterday and he said the eye (vision) appeared to be okay.  The facial reconstruction doctor decided to hold off on surgery to see if the fractured bone can heal itself.  If so, to God be the glory.  If not, there is a two week window where he will decide whether to proceed with surgery.  He did say the fracture is significant so it will take a miracle to be corrected.  I appreciate Scott keeping me updated.

By the way, Nanette (Korie’s mom) is upset with me because I did not miss church Sunday night and come to the hospital.  She angrily muttered something about our dating back in the day and how we almost got married.  She just cannot let go of the past!

Adam & Shelley Johnson lost everything they own in a house fire this past Sunday morning.  It is my understanding that Cecil Guidry knows the clothes sizes for the family.  Contact her if you can help.  Thanks!

“Potluck with the Pastor” takes place tomorrow morning immediately following the service.  Lisa and I providing the roast beef, rolls, and drinks.  You are asked to bring the trimmings and desserts.  This is always a good time of fellowship so I encourage you to join us!

We need our retirees and others to join us this Thursday, 3/29, beginning at 8:00AM to help get the grounds ready for the Easter weekend.  We will finish before noon.  We need to work the flower beds, rake leaves, mow, et cetera.

Speaking of Easter, Bro. Dale has asked that you help with the children’s ministry by bringing plastic eggs and candy to be used on that Saturday.  You can bring those to any service between now and 4/7.  Thanks!

Do you know how long it takes to build a witness/testimony?  Years!  Do you know how long it takes to lose it?  Seconds/minutes.  A couple of things were brought to my attention yesterday where folks greatly damaged/lost their witness/testimony.

I am taking a vacation day as I have an appointment with the ENT doctor.  Katie Tillman’s sister, Amanda, has been so kind to help me get appointments, to remind me of when those appointments are, et cetera.  With Amanda sweetness, it makes one wonder what happened to Katie?   (Knowing their mom, it is hard to believe either one could turn out to be sweet!)

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