WEDNESDAY, 5/11/16

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.” (Psalm 19:14 KJV)

Today’s Bible reading –  2 Samuel 10; 1 Chronicles 19; Psalm 20

Carla Kyser’s scan results showed stability in every area except her liver.  She will start on two different drugs next Tuesday, 5/17, with one of them being something she has taken previously.  Neither drug is supposed to have harsh side effects.  Keep praying for Carla.

Becky Sellers gets her scan results today.  Pray big!

Eddie Albritton will learn the results of his MRI next Tuesday, 5/17.

Gloria Whitmore is scheduled for surgery this morning.  Pray that all goes well.

Regular schedule this morning and tonight.  All of our students will meet together in the CAB with this being Bro. Chris Taylor’s last night as our Minister to Students.

Speaking of Bro. Chris, the Friendship family will host a reception for him this Sunday evening, 5/15, immediately following our evening service which will begin at 5:00PM (please note the earlier starting time).  Marisa Felps, church hostess, is asking folks to bring casseroles and desserts for this fellowship.  All of our staff members and active deacons are asked to go to the CAB immediately following the 10:30AM service this Sunday, 5/15, in order to set up for the reception.  There will be a card/gift basket available at the reception.

I am looking for a maximum of three folks to share no longer than three minutes during the evening service about what Bro. Chris and his ministry have meant to them personally.  First come, first served.  E-mail will be the official way to contact me and that address is tcturrentine@gmail.com.  All volunteers must do so no later than Friday afternoon, 5/13, at 5:00PM.

Mother’s Day is always celebrated on May 10 in Guatemala.  Talk about a celebration!  First, the vast majority (if not all) mothers are given the day off work.  The restaurants, malls, parks, et cetera are literally teeming with people.  I have never seen anything like it in my life.  Lisa and I stopped by Burger King at 9:00PM last night to get food for some locals and the place was literally packed with people.  They have even brought in extra tables and chairs and they were filled too.  Absolutely crazy!

Our 30 – 39 year old Sunday School class sent money with us to take a local pastor and his wife grocery shopping.  I wish the members of that class could have seen the look on their faces when we told them and then watched them shop – what a delightful scene!  They were so humble and so very grateful.  Good job by this Sunday School class of being givers!  A need was definitely met!  God is good!

Lisa and I began our day yesterday having breakfast with Lazaro & Glendy Suruy.  It was a wonderful time of food and fellowship.  They are doing a great job of working with the seventy five (presently seventy four) children in the feeding center.

Today, Lisa and the girls, along with Haley Rae, will enjoy Antigua.  Me?  Lord willing, I will enjoy the peace and quiet of the GRACE mountain.  I hope to join them for supper at Las Antorchas tonight.

BTW, the fare for tonight’s 7:30PM Bible study will be pizza from Pizza Hut in the bayou.

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