MONDAY, 12/8/08
*A comment posted on 12/4 just came up today, 12/8. You may want to consider going back and reading it.
The Lord blessed and we had a wonderful weekend. The children’s choir did a very nice job of sharing the Gospel through their musical last night. I appreciate Kathy Wadkins and all of the adults who work with the children’s choir. Parents, I encourage you to involve your 1st – 5th graders in children’s choir beginning in January.
Our first weekend of Upward basketball league play seemed to go well too. Games will be played this Saturday, 12/13, and then we will break until January 3, 2009.
Our Junior High RA basketball team also began play this past Saturday and our 5th-6th grade teams begins play this Saturday. Pray for our Upward ministry and our RA ministry.
Carla Kyser gets her scan results tomorrow. Phyllis Bush continues to be at home as she battles her cancer. Joyce Bosarge is some better in her battle with cancer. Larry Thompson will have hip replacement surgery one week from today. Bro. Johnny Tucker goes back to the doctor next Monday. Pray for these folks and all of those who are battling their respective afflictions/sicknesses.
Our annual “Widow’s Nite” takes place this Thursday, 12/11, beginning at 6:30PM. Our deacons & their wives will host this night of ministry with an assist from the staff. Pray that this will be a night of encouragement for these widows and widowers.
Chris Taylor, Minister to Students, graduated from USA this past Saturday so congratulations are in order to him.
The Alabama football team lost this past Saturday for the first time this football season. I don’t keep up with it that closely but I do appreciate my friends from Michigan, Canada, & Guatemala who e-mailed or called in support of the Tide.
I want to go on record as saying that I will be pulling for Tim Tebow, the Florida Gators, and the SEC on 1/8/09. However, I also want to predict that the OU Sooners will win that game. Kevin Wadkins will owe me big time after that game!
I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus!
