The visitation with the Millie Spiller family will take place on Sunday, 1/13, from 5:00 – 7:00PM.  The funeral service will take place on Monday, 1/14, at 10:00AM.  The visitation and service will take place from the auditorium of Friendship Baptist Church.

Interment will take place in the Serenity Memorial Gardens.

The visitation with the Morris Dupont family will take place on Saturday, 1/12, from 10:00AM until noon.  The service will begin at noon.  Both the visitation and service will take place from the St. Vincent Catholic Church on Three Notch Road in the Tillman’s Corner area.

Interment will be in the Machpelah Cemetery in Pascagoula, Mississippi.

Millie Spiller’s family will go to the funeral home today to make the arrangements for the visitation and service.  I should be able to post them either later today or tonight.  We are going to need help feeding the family after the service.  If you can/will help, please call the church office today between 8:00AM – noon or 1:00PM – 5:00PM.

I will visit Maxine today in the hospital and will perhaps learn the arrangements for Morris too.  Pray for Maxine’s well being physically and emotionally.

Lord willing, I will travel to Agricola, MS this afternoon to visit with Betty Carol Neal.  I try to stay out of MS as much as possible but today is sort of a “worse case” scenario as I will be going to Pastor Rodney Coleman’s (Pentecostal) house and he is a MSU fan.  The saving grace is that his wife, Rhonda, will be there but that is cancelled because Rita Vice will be there.  Wow!

Speaking of the Vice family, Mark arrived safe and sound in Uganda yesterday afternoon.  Way to go Mark!

The college football season is over (I do not count the all star games as part of the season) and that is sad.  I watched a replay of the Bama/ND game last night and asked Rusty to stay and watch it with me.  He refused!  I will watch some of the NFL games now remembering that Joe David Bailey says they are better than the college games.  He is so wrong!  (I have to remind myself that he is Dr. Jack’s son!)  Spring games do not count either so August seems like a long way off but it will come quicker than expected.

I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
