SUNDAY, 5/13/18
“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)
First, I want to say congratulations to Scott & Nanette Fontenot as their second daughter, Kristin, gave birth to Micah Kelly Woods, on Friday night. He was exactly one month early but checked into this world at six pounds and four ounces. He is having some respiratory problems and “could” be moved to a more specialized hospital if he does not improve within the next day or two. Kristin should be discharged from the hospital today. So pray for Josh & Kristin and baby Micah. Obviously, congratulations also go to Kerry & Sherry Woods as they are the other set of grandparents.
Visited with Brooke & Tripp (Curtis was running some errands) yesterday morning. They were still trying to determine exactly what was wrong with Tripp. Pray for wisdom on behalf of the medical folks. Pray for Tripp.
Spoke to Wendy Johnston via the phone yesterday morning. The celebration of life service for her mother will take place this Tuesday, May 15, at 11:00AM in Kansas. Pray for Wendy and her family as they walk through this valley.
Regular schedule this morning. No DT or choir practice today. Special service at 6:00PM. Hope to be joined by many members of the Friendship family this morning and evening.
Remember, today is our opportunity to “bless Tess” financially. Who is this Tess? Glad you asked. You will meet her in our services today (electronically). Pray and the give as the Lord leads. Love offering above your regular offering.
If you want to take part in the December 1 – 8, 2018 GRACE trip and have not contacted me within the past day or so, please do so today. Trying to finalize those tickets.
Also, if we have three, four, five men who would like to travel to Guatemala a few days early (thinking Wednesday, 11/28 or Thursday, 11/29) to do some maintenance on our buildings/grounds then let me know today. Commitment will need to be firm as the ticket prices are good and will have to be purchased now. We could be flexible on the return date if need be.
I pray that you will have a great Sunday with Jesus. Happy Mother’s Day!
