MONDAY, 4/12/10
Ouch! The first weekend of the public school system’s Spring Break caused our attendance to take a hit! The attendance in the early service was good and I was feeling “good” about it but then came the second service and I no longer felt so good! O well, it is what it is! Thanks to those who were present and I pray those not in attendance are enjoying some time away.
However, God was present in our services and that is always a great thing! Erik Blackwell made a profession of faith in our early service and then he & Hayden Collier followed the Lord in believers’ baptism as a part of our evening service. Praise the Lord!
I am not sure if Heidi & Matthew came home from the hospital yesterday or if they will come today. As far as I know, Martha Patrick & Jayne English remain hospitalized. Oscar Petersen came home on Saturday. Debbie Kendrick’s mother will have quadruple by pass heart surgery this morning. Pray for these folks and the others on our list.
The neighbors (actually just one – Sherry) have been complaining about the grass on our acreage behind Charles & Ann. So, Saturday saw Lisa, Soy, & me spend six hours getting it mowed. (Okay, Soy came for the last five minutes but at least he came!) Next news you know, Sherry will be wanting us to cut it again before June!
The church family approved last night for Tony Hacker to lead the repair work on the porch area in front of the office. That will be followed by a vinyl siding job and then all of the exterior areas on the buildings will be covered by vinyl siding. Pray that they won’t find “major” damage once they get into this project.
John Curl & Kenny Lingle have done a nice job of painting Phase II. Tena Hovel will begin painting the doors & chair rail today. Tony, Les, & Carl B. hung the doors & ran the chair rail this past Saturday morning. Bro. Benny McGath did the clean up. Thanks to everyone for their help.
Bro. Kerry and a group of our senior adults are headed to Louisiana today. Pray for them to have a safe trip.
I hear that the first 5K went well. Rumor on the street is that Stan Hatcher let up so his second son, Ryan, could beat his time.
I’m struggling as I make the move to this Mac. It will get better!
I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus!

Bro. Teddie, Mom is enroute home with daddy. Thanks to everyone who has prayed for my daddy. We are still battling the cancer, but the pnemonia is gone. We love you all.
Hi Bro. Teddie,
Gage has had a run of really good days. He continues radiation and chemo and they are keeping his prednisone dose up alittle higher than before to help with the pressure so that is why he is doing so good according to the drs. but, we choose to believe that God is at work here. Dr. Gilbert said last Friday that Gage was not a “horse” he was showing signs of being a “zebra”.. So many portions of his illness and symptoms are not typical for his age and they don’t really know how to explain how he is reacting to different things, but we are sure God is calling the shots here. So we are standing and knowing they will be even more dumbfounded when we do our next MRI and this thing is dying away.. Thanks for the prayers…
