Otto may have been right! As he drove around Grand Bay on his tractor, he always said that computers would ruin the world. This morning I was prone to agree with him as I have been unable to get online until now and it is pushing 8:00AM. Sorry for the delay in posting. I have got to have Al check to see what is going on with this internet stuff. Where are Ben, Chris, & Dewayne when you really need them?
I told you that I can make mistaks – grammatically and otherwise! Yesterday I wrote that Tanya had attended the Nobles funeral service for us when, in fact, it was Tina Sprinkle who was there to represent the Friendship family. God knew who was there and I simply failed to get the message to Tanya in a timely manner. Sorry for any confusion!
The conference for the pastors in Guatemala has picked up steam really quickly. We have three pastors, one evangelist, and one teacher firmly committed to go lead this conference and a couple of other pastors giving it prayerful consideration. We need 100 scholarships for the Guatemalan pastors and we are giving the members of the Friendship family the first opportunity to fund these scholarships at $60 each. A scholarship will provide transportation to and from the seminary, lodging and all meals for three days/nights, and some help with the materials/books to be given to each participating pastor. After April, we will allow folks outside the Friendship family to help with the scholarships. We will be needing additional funds to cover other expenses related to the conference so there will be plenty of opportunities to help!
Today is a regular Wednesday at Friendship. Our morning service begins in two hours followed by all of the evening activities which begin at 6:00PM. I hope each member of the Friendship family will join us at some point today!
I pray that you will have a great Wednesday with Jesus!
