THURSDAY, AUGUST 23

The Lord certainly blessed us yesterday with good services/Bible studies.  I appreciate those who take the time to pray, prepare, and teach our Wednesday night classes.  We have a lot of folks involved in the various activities on Wednesdays as we study the Bible, learn about missions, have choir rehearsals, et cetera and it takes a committment to staff all of these ministry opportunities.  Thank you for giving to the Lord!

They were not able to do the procedure on Carla Kyser as her bone is healing.  She will go for further consultation as to the next move.  Bea Unrue did well in her knee replacement surgery.  Dollie Trout continues to do well and should be home by the weekend.  Pray.

I got word via e-mail that one of my uncles in Michigan has prostate cancer and the initial report is not good.  This is one of my mama’s brothers and I would appreciate your prayers for him.  A bone marrow biopsy will be done to determine if the cancer is limited or has spread to any of his organs.  Please pray! 

Please remember that the musical group, Seraph, will be ministering in our 6:00PM service this Sunday.  All members of the Friendship family are encouraged to attend this special service.

Bro. Kerry will be taking the members of our student ensemble to Pelham this Saturday for a day of ice skating and shopping.  All members and prospective members are invited to attend this event.  You can contact Bro. Kerry for more details. 

We are looking for seven adults to serve on our senior high student ministry committee and seven more adults to serve on our junior high student ministry committee.  Interested persons should sign up using one of the forms which are in the foyer of the auditorium.

Due to the fire at the Chevron Refinery last week, we have a few openings on our November 23 – 30, 2007 GRACE trip to Guatemala.  We need to fill those immediately so, if interested, please contact me asap.  Also, we are hosting a medical trip the dates of March 1 – 8, 2008.  Space on that trip is limited and will be filled on a first come, first served basis.  If interested, sign up immediately. 

Today is Miss Judy Tucker’s birthday!  This sweet lady has had a tremendous impact on my life since I was an eleven year old boy and she was my pastor’s wife.  We used to do Saturday bus visitation together and she was my “mama” for a brief time as I lived with Bro. Johnny & Miss Judy.  Happy birthday Miss Judy! 

I think I understood correctly that Missionary Mark Mast is presently in Michigan.  If so, would one of our Yankee readers have him contact me today?  If he gets my voice mail, ask him to leave a number where he can be reached.  Mark is a regular blog reader but I don’t know if he has access to the internet this week.  (I am not even sure Michigan has internet access yet!) 

I hope you have a great day with Jesus!
