FRIDAY, 10/31/08
This will be a busy day/evening with the final preparations for the Hallelujah Festival and then the actual activity itself. Thanks to all who helped yesterday and will help today and tonight. Thanks to Bro. Benny & Miss Julie for leading this ministry!
Soy & Deidra will host a skating fellowship for the college/young adults tonight beginning at 9:30PM. If you need more information just contact either of them.
Kristen Whitehurst broke her nose a couple of weeks ago and had surgery yesterday to repair it. She did well through the surgery and is now on the road to recovery.
Shea Childress was diagnosed with Hodgkins disease yesterday afternoon. Obviously, the family was shocked by this news and needs our prayer support. Shea will see an oncologist next week and will begin chemotherapy treatments in the very near future. Pray for Dave, Dana, & Shea during this time.
The visitation with the Hanson family will take place tonight from 5:00 – 8:00PM from the Mobile Memorial Gardens Funeral Home. The funeral service for Steve will take place tomorrow afternoon beginning at 2:00PM. Pray for Bro. Sonny & his family during this time. Pray for Bro. Jerry as he will be preaching that service.
I remind you that the visitation & service for Willie Mae “Grandma” Dunlap will take place this Sunday, 11/2. Visitation takes place from 2:00PM until the 3:30PM service time. The visitation and service will take place in our auditorium.
We are going to delay our staff/deacons meeting by one week because of the funeral service. We will meet next Sunday, 11/9, at 4:00PM.
Our senior adults arrived home safely last night and we thank God for watching over them in their travels.
Don’t forget to “fall back” one hour tomorrow night. I just heard on WCSG that the rate of heart attacks decreases on the Monday following “fall back” Sunday each year. So, that extra hour of sleep appears to be good for your heart!
I pray that you will have a great Friday with Jesus!
