FRIDAY, 2/1/13

Friday (actually Thursday night) greetings from Guatemala.  The internet service has been spotty at best tonight and I did not want to risk not having it tomorrow morning.

I have posted the arrangements for Merwyn Gunter’s visitation and service on a separate post.  Pray for the family.

Speaking of Merwyn, one of his two remaining brothers, Bill, had heart surgery and had a bleed afterwards.  That is all I know but do ask that you pray for him.

Shawn Burwell did good through his surgery.

Bro. Robbie has been diagnosed with a disease of the lung.  I will not go into details but there are no medicines to treat/cure it.  Pray for him.

How about some good news even if it is scary!  Chris & Courtney Cavin are going to be parents for the first time at some point in September!  What is scary about that?  Courtney, mother?  LOL!  She will be an awesome mother!  Folks, if you want to have children, just attend our Sunday School class!  We have four or five girls “with child” right now and Bo has not even announced her pregnancy yet!

Lord willing, I will return home Saturday and will be in the pulpit for all three services on Sunday.  I have sent a message to the deacons talking about the evening service.  We are going to have one but I am not sure if we will change the time.  Check back Friday night and/or Saturday morning for the final word.

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

THURSDAY, 1/31/13

Please keep praying for Merwyn’s family in this time of sorrow.  I believe that Merwyn was 91 years of age which made him our second oldest male member (I think).  Merwyn was a faithful member of the Friendship family in these latter years of his life.  It was my privilege to visit with him on basically a weekly basis during his time in the convalescent home.

Shawn Burwell (I hope I have that spelled correctly) will have eye surgery this morning.  He will be receiving a replacement eye

Robin Harris went home from the hospital yesterday.  Miss Gracie Lee was sent home under hospice care.  Kevin Woods remains basically the same.

Carla Kyser meets with the doctor tomorrow.  Dawn Baria’s vital signs surprised the hospice nurse this week.

We had a good Wednesday.  The 10:00AM and 8:00PM attendances were very good.  The Spirit in all of the services was excellent.

The Friendship family will be hosting Pastor Joe David Bailey and the student ministry from Danville Baptist Church for a mission trip the dates of July 13 – 20.  More details to come.

I saw Fred & Margie Blair in the Lighthouse on Tuesday.  They looked well and are living in the Northwest area of Mobile County.  Margie told me that she is a blog reader.  That puts us at 8 readers now – praise the Lord!

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

MERWYN GUNTER PASSES FROM THIS LIFE

Just received a message from Hilda Gunter via Andy Hamil that Merwyn Gunter has passed from this life.  It is just before 10:30PM.  Merwyn’s son, Russell, is in route to Mobile at this time.  Pray for him as he drives these final few hours and then makes the arrangements for the funeral.  I will post those arrangements once they are completed.
