THURSDAY, 3/1/12
Wow, is it really March already? Are you kidding me?
We had a blessed day in our services yesterday. Our “souper” “potluck with the pastor” went very well. Those folks brought enough soup to feed Carter’s army (I do not know who Carter is or how many folks are in his army but that is a phrase I have heard all of my life!). Marisa Felps, Caroline Ford, Ann Clark, and Lisa did an outstanding job of preparing the trimmings and the desserts! The fellowship was great! Our next “pwtp” will take place on 3/28.
Our prayers go to the four families who have men involved in the crash of the Coast Guard helicopter. We need to pray daily for the men and women of our armed forces.
Pastor Clint Landry and the folks at 1st Baptist Bayou La Batre also need our prayers as their auditorium was damaged by fire yesterday afternoon. I do not know the cause of the fire or the extent of the damage but it will most likely be significant.
Marisa Felps’ father, Mr. Frank Boykin, has been diagnosed with a malignancy. He will meet with an oncologist next Friday, 3/9, to discuss a course of action. Pray for him.
I am driving Dana & Gina along with two of their friends from school to Birmingham today to watch the Faith Academy girls basketball team and the boys basketball team play in the Final Four of the high school state tourney. The girls team has an excellent chance to win it all. The boys could but they probably have a tougher road.
I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
