TUESDAY, 11/17/09

It says something about “the best laid plans” and that applied to me yesterday.  My “plans” were to blog from the plane as we were enroute to Guatemala City as I had been assured the plane had WiFi – wrong!  Sorry about that!

I was encouraged by the day we had this past Sunday.  I appreciate the men who came to the ordination examination council for Bro. Jerry Whitmore.  Of course, laying hands on him as we ordained him in the evening service was special.  Pray for Bro. Jerry & our entire deacon body. 

Thank you to Bro. Benny & Julie McGath for coordinating the “surprise” 50th birthday party for Buddy Jones on Sunday night.  Thank you to everyone who came, prepared food, gave gifts, et cetera to help him have a great day.  I pray that God will bless you for your kindness.

I know that we received over $1,000 for our Lottie Moon Christmas Offering but I don’t know an exact total.  I hope to update you in tomorrow’s post.  We have two Sundays to reach our $30,000 goal by month’s end.  God can use us to do it!  Will you help?  Thanks!

Miss Betty Taylor went to the oncologist yesterday, Miss Kathleen Henderson had a surgical procedure done, Mr. Fore was supposed to be discharged from the hospital, Anna Carol continues her recovery at home and sees the doctor today and Miss Vivian had a bad night on Sunday but a better day yesterday.  Carla Kyser & Miss Joyce Bosarge continue to battle their respective cancer.  Miss Kathleen Richards also has a malignancy and needs our prayers.  She is our oldest church member at 97 years of age – what a sweetheart.  Pray for these folks!

Ted Ezell’s son, Thomas Hughes, receives a huge “thank you” for arranging our airport parking for the bus yesterday. 

Did I mention the weekend was good?  UT & ND lost their respective games while Bama won – does it get any better than that? 

You can keep up with our GRACE team’s ministry by reading the GRACE entries.  I plan on blogging here daily too as I am given information from home. 

I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus!
