There will be a men’s breakfast this Saturday morning, 8/3, beginning at 8:00AM in the fellowship hall.  There is no cost and the purpose if for fellowship and prayer – especially relating to the revival services beginning the next morning.  Need more information?  Contact Jeff Holifield or Jim Chinners.

Revive us again!  That is my prayer!  I am praying for God to send a revival to me personally and to us collectively as a church family.  I ask you to pray for Pastor Jack Bailey as he prepares this week to share the Word with us.  I am also asking you to contact him either via e-mail (jack@danvillebaptist.org) or via card/letter at P.O. Box 70 Danville, AL 35619 to let him know of your prayer support.  If you send an e-mail, please copy me on it.  Thanks!  Pray without ceasing!

I need 27 folks who are willing to be a “pack a pew” leader for next Monday night’s 6:30PM service.  I need those folks in place by this Wednesday, 7/31.  You will be assigned a pew(s) and asked to invite folks to “pack” it for the service.  This basically means you will get at least 12 folks to join you for the service.  Let me know via e-mail if you will serve as a leader.

What a blessed Sunday we enjoyed yesterday!  The Spirit was very good in the morning services and it was good to see numbers of folks at the altar.  Last night’s service with Pastor Lance Nicholson and the folks from South City Church was refreshing.  Thank you for being faithful in your attendance!  You gave $1,228 in the offering.  We baptized three folks and South City baptized one.  We give God the glory for giving the increase.

Sonny Bates, Jim Chinners, and Raymond Wilkinson were elected to serve as deacons.  These are good men as are the other five nominees.  Pray for all of our deacons – Sonny Bates, Herbert Benefield, Jim Chinners, Bill Kendrick, John Milton Ladnier, Kenny Lingle, Carl Ray Moulds, Max Peacock and Raymond Wilkinson.  (Rob Nevin, Bernard Suthoff, and Larry Whitehurst rotate off 7/31)

As far as I know, Miss Kathleen Henderson remains hospitalized.  I will be checking on her this morning.

Lord willing, Lisa and I will be attending the funeral service for Martha Nell Floore today.  She and her family have been friends to us for many years.  Pray for the Floore family.

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