THURSDAY, 8/26/10

The Friendship family now has a Pastor Emeritus – Dr. Robbie Howard!  This title was bestowed upon Bro. Robbie last night as a joint motion came from the deacons & finance committee and was unanimously approved by the church family.  It also allows folks to contribute financially to Bro. Robbie’s ministry by simply marking “2 x 2” or Bro. Robbie on the designated side of an offering envelope.  This is a proud moment in my life as a pastor to have Bro. Robbie recognized in this way.  We will be having a more formal presentation during one of our Sunday night services in September.

145, one hundred and forty-five! That is the number of students who were present for Bible study last night!  Wow!  We need to continue to get them involved in our Sunday School and Sunday services but we are very thankful that they are coming to this time of study in the Word.  Pray for Bro. Chris, Bro. Dale, and those who work with our students.

We almost had as many in our morning service yesterday as we did last Wednesday on our eatin’ meetin’ day.  Folks, our Wednesday numbers have been really good in recent weeks and, while I thank you for being faithful, I give God the glory for what He is doing!  It is great!

Of course, my day ended with a really good time with our young adults as we continue to study Radical.  Our first three weeks have proven beneficial.  Pray for those involved in this study!

Rob Nevin was taken to the hospital yesterday morning in severe pain thinking it was being caused by kidney stones.  The doctors decided it was not kidney stones and sent him home with medication.  James Davis and Martha Patrick remain hospitalized.  The funeral service for Larry Blackwell’s grandmother will take place today in Lake Charles, LA.  Carla Kyser has been put on a new medication in hopes it will improve her appetite.

Seven more days until the 2010 college football season begins – nice!  The Braves thought they were the Dodgers last night and the Cards continue to struggle.  Do you realize that Pujols or Votto (Reds) could possibly win the triple crown in the NL this year?  Hasn’t been done in the NL since the 30’s.  I would like to see one of them do it as that takes much more than just luck.

Hope you have a great Thursday with Jesus!
