Pastor's Blog

We had a very good day in our services yesterday with the highlight being the licensing/ordination service for Ralph Rimmer.  I appreciate the 16 men (7 from 1st Loxley & 10 from Friendship) who joined me in making up the ordination counci.  Thanks to Pastor Bo Rice for brining a charge to Ralph.  Thanks to Sherry & all who helped with the fellowship.  It was all great! 

Steve Morris, Kathleen Henderson, Merle Phillips, & Jayne English all remain hospitalized.  I will give updates tomorrow but do know that Miss Merle is supposed to have a stent placed in one of her lungs tomorrow.  Pray for these folks along with Carla Kyser & Miss Joyce Bosarge. 

Olympic news that caught me eye – Team USA beat Canada 5 -3 in hockey yesterday.  I’m sure Mark Mast is aware of that fact!

We made our move in curling on Friday & Saturday as the men & women won their matches (are they matches or games?).  However, we stumbled a bit yesterday as the women lost two times (Canada & Sweden) and the Brits got the men.  Our men get a chance to redeem themselves today as they take on Canada & China.  We’ll “c” what they are made of! 

The Germans are making a move on the medal count too as the USA leads 24 – 18 with a full week to go.  I think the last time we won the overall medal count in the Winter Olympics was 1932.  I’ll ask Myrtle to be sure since she was there!

Joe David blogged Friday, Saturday, & Sunday – I am so impressed! 

Hope you have a great Monday with Jesus.
