“As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” I Peter 4:10
Back in the day, I used to post birthdays but stopped that practice many years ago unless it is immediate family. I will not go into the reasons. However, today I am breaking precedent and wishing a very “happy birthday” to Craig Kirschenman! Craig is no longer able to join us in our services but what a blessing he has been to so many of us for so many years. You may wonder how I know it is Craig’s birthday? Because he has only told me like twenty two million times over the years – LOL!
Edwina Perkins did not have a heart cath done yesterday. She has an issue they want to address before they will do a cath. She is in good spirits. Pray for Edwina.
The arrangements have been finalized for Miss Ica Walley. The visitation with the family will take place this Saturday, 12/9, from 9:00 – 10:00AM at the Heritage Funeral Home on Highway 63 in Moss Point, Mississippi. The service will begin at 10:00AM. The Friendship family will be feeding the family in our fellowship hall following the service. Tina Wilkinson is in Guatemala so we will need someone to coordinate this ministry if not one has already assumed this opportunity. Contact the church office for more information or to volunteer to help with the food.
Friendship basketball leagues will play again this Saturday beginning at 8:00AM.
The team in Guatemala is now minus four members. Daphne & our niece, Jamie, left for home yesterday and arrived home safely. Stephanie Bryant & Betty Creech left this morning and should be home this afternoon. Thanks to Willard Garnett for taking them to the airport at 3:00AM – beyond the call of duty!
The team is having an excellent week. The program put on by the children at the feeding center yesterday was precious – Tina W cried! The block party for those children was a blast. Everyone on the team is doing great. More details later.
I am away and the folks in South Mobile County are enjoying my kind of weather – not fair! Temperatures in the low forties during the day with rain – perfect! Oh well, it is what it is!
I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
