“As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” I Peter 4:10

Sorry this entry is late.  No excuses.  I also did not post anything for the past several days.  Was unexpectedly out of town on Friday with our oldest twin, Dana, and then expectedly with Lisa, Daphne, Titus, Emmy and Nora on Saturday.  Was able to visit family in Hartselle too so it was all good.

No prayer time tonight.  No GROW tonight.

Let me go back to last Thursday, 11/16.  The annual community senior adult Thanksgiving meal was, once again, a huge success.  Many thanks to each person who helped in any way to make that day special.  Dale Bosarge did a very good job of sharing the Word and doing an illusion.  One sweet lady, age 90, told me she is going to live long enough until she is the oldest person present for that service.  This year’s oldest was 96 years old (two ladies).

We were blessed with a very good day in our services yesterday morning.  Thanks to Bro. Jerry Hovel and those who helped with the food baskets.  Did not have any public decisions but did have some folks talk to me afterwards about decisions they need to make.  God is good.

Last night’s service at the GBCOG was good too.  Al, Brad, Jeanette & Randall all did a nice job with the music which included our choir and the COG praise team.  Associate Pastor Jamie Passman did a nice job of sharing the Word.  The attendance was good and I am thankful for each member of the Friendship family who attended.  The offering went to the “Faith By Works” ministry which is a local ministry here in Grand Bay.

Bro. Jerry Hovel is on vacation this week.  I respectfully ask that he not be contacted about any matter.  I am in town and available all week long with the exception of 2:30PM – 6:00PM on Saturday!

Last night’s weather was great!  Open windows night!  I love it!

Friendship family – no services/activities/classes this Wednesday.

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