MONDAY, JULY 16
The Lord blessed us with a wonderful day in His house yesterday. Sueanna Bryant made a public profession of faith in our 8:00AM service desiring membership by baptism. We will be observing the ordinance of baptism as a part of our evening service this Sunday, 7/22.
Michelle Rolls did a nice job of putting together the power point presentation from our most recent GRACE trip and Brianne Woods did a great job of sharing what the trip meant to her personally. Thanks to these two and to all who were involved in the trip.
Speaking of GRACE trips – we will use the month of August to sign up for our Summer ’08 trips. As always, we will give the members of the Friendship family first opportunity to sign up. So, pray and then do as the Lord leads.
Keith & Melissa Brown and Doug & Diane Cordell gave the necessary funds yesterday to build a GRACE house in memory of their grandfather, Mr. George Brown. His funeral service will be at noon today and we will build that house, Lord willing, on our August trip. Thanks to this family and all who have given to build GRACE houses in memory/honor of a loved one or friend. What a great way to remember someone while making a tremendous difference in the lives of others. Brianne mentioned last night that one of the highlights for her was helping build and then dedicate the GRACE house in memory of her maternal grandmother, Karen Poiroux.
Wes Bates and Rebekkah Holley are next on the wedding calendar as they will be married this Saturday, 7/21, at 2:00PM in our church auditorium. Busy week for those families!
I need to get real serious about getting the contents of the container placed on pallets and wrapped. Our resident professionals i.e. Scott Fontenot, Troy Brock, whomever need to contact me so we can get this process started and finished. We will need lots of help!
I hope you have a good day in the Lord!
