SATURDAY, 9/26/20

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” (Psalm 46:1)

This entry is being written on Friday night from “container central!”  I have relied exclusively on the blog to notify the men of the need to be here at 7:00AM tomorrow (Saturday) in order to load the container that will set sail from the port of Gulfport on Monday, 9/28.  Some folks do not read the blog (let that sink in for a minute) so please pass the word!

How long will it take to load the container?  Great question.  I truly believe we can walk away completely finished by 9:00AM if enough guys show up to help.  Please pass the word!

On Friday afternoon Rhett “they call me McGyver” Butler led a crew of five men from the Mission of Hope in basically unloading the existing container and getting almost everything outside and placed in order to be loaded.  Rhett & crew finished their task in less than one hour – impressive!  Can the loading crew beat that time?  Nope.

Curtis Richmond graciously loaded the skids onto the existing container in late August or so.  He has agreed to come, on his off day, tomorrow to unload them and then put them on the container that will go to Guatemala.  How nice is that?  The guys at MAECO Fabrication located across the street from our church campus have always been so helpful whenever we have asked.  I am thankful to Curtis and the others at MAECO.  By the way, Curtis will be using a front end loader.  Did not want you to think he was lifting those things by hand.  Just saying.

So, with almost all of the contents of the container outside, we have had to put a security guard in place for the night.  Just being proactive.  He is armed and dangerous much in the mode of Barney P Fife!

Regular schedule tomorrow morning and evening.

SEC football begins today at 11:00AM – hooray!

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

FRIDAY, 9/25/20

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” (Psalm 46:1)

Short and sweet today.  We need the men who signed up to help load the container to be in place by 7:00AM in the morning.  We ask that you park your vehicles on the East side of the auditorium or on the back forty.  Please do not park on the South side of the CAB.  Once again, if you did not sign up to help but want to come join us, come on!

Well, I was wrong.  I thought the UAB vs South game last night would be competitive but it was not.  Maybe the Jags can right the ship before the Trojans come to town on 10/3.

The real college football season begins tomorrow morning at 11:00AM.  SEC!  SEC!  SEC!

Regular schedule on our campus this Sunday morning and evening.  Our AWANA ministry begins at 5:00PM followed by children’s choir at 6:00PM.  Parents, involve your children in these ministries.

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