Today’s Bible reading – 2 Chronicles 21:1-23:21 Romans 11:13-36 Psalm 22:1-18 Proverbs 20:7

Robin Corley passed from this life on Sunday afternoon.  There will be a visitation at Serenity Funeral Home this morning beginning at 9:00AM until around 9:45AM.  A graveside service will then take place at 10:00AM in Serenity Memorial Gardens.  The arrangements were Robin’s request.  Pray for the Corley family.

Edna Pearl Morgan will have knee surgery today at noon.  It will be done with a scope and she will come home later today.  Pray that everything goes well.

Ashley Crawley was in church and Sunday School on Sunday.  She was admitted to the hospital on Sunday because of pain and an inability to breathe freely.  The medical staff found a blood clot in area somewhere near one of her lungs.  Tyrone said that she would most likely be in the hospital through today.  I will visit again this morning and will get an update.  Ashley is a very sweet young lady!

Visited with Brian Amonett’s parents last night.  Brian continues to be on that proverbial roller coaster.  Just keep praying for Brian and his family.

Carla Kyser had scans done yesterday and will have more done today.  Pray for her.  (Carla is a sweetheart but please do not tell her that I said that as she might get the big head!)

Eddie Whitmore has the week off from chemo.  Becky Sellers continues to be her positive self.  Lisa Thompson is hanging in there.  Pray for these folks.

Prayer meeting tonight from 5:00 – 7:00PM in the auditorium.  Please use the West side door to enter/exit.  We are praying for revival.  I am in hopes that at least thirty folks will take time to come and pray this afternoon/evening.  Will you join us?

We are changing the dates of our June 2016 GRACE trip to Thursday, June 23, through Thursday, June 30.  Another team requested the dates we have used for a few years and we decided to accommodate their request. I have changed my trip dates several times in the past as it is not about us but about what is best for the Kingdom’s work.   Friendship family members can sign up during August for that June 2016 trip as well as the Thursday, July 28, through Thursday, August 4, 2016 trip.

Speaking of Guatemala, still no water on the mountain.  I think our neighbors still have some in their reserve tanks but the mission house, the apartments, and the feeding center are bone dry!  Pray that this situation can be remedied today.

Dr. Rex, please check your e-mail this morning and send me a reply.  Thanks!

Charles Suthoff saw me out weed eating this past Saturday afternoon and noticed the extremely unusual amount of sweat that was pouring from my body.  He had compassion.  Bernard saw me too but just basically ignored me with no offer to help or even to bring me something to drink – wow!  Are they really brothers?

I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus.  Remember the Corley family in your prayers this morning.
