Need twenty five more folks to join this revival prayer ministry to put us at one hundred twenty different folks.  Will you be one of this one hundred twenty?  Call me at 445 5416 and leave a message.

Update – this came from Bro. Johnny Tucker and I think it refers to today: “Few words to give update and ask for prayers. Tomorrow will bring crucial decision. My Cardiologist is conferring with infection specialist about the best thing to do with my infection . Surgery to replace my defibrillator seems the best way to go. However, this will be a major ordeal because in placing a new defibrillator in new location means replacing my wires to my heart and this is a dangerous surgery because they will have to remove barbs from my heart walls and put more into my heart wall.” 

Our daughter, Daphne, will go into surgery early this morning.  It will be done on an outpatient basis so she should be home by late morning if all goes well.

Bro. Jerry’s GRACE team is scheduled to fly from Guatemala early this morning.  Those arriving in Mobile should do so early afternoon.  Pray for their safety in travel.

As far as I know, GO camp is doing well.

Yesterday was a very long day for me spiritually and emotionally.  I was at UAB at 4:10AM, left there around 7:00PM and arrived home at midnight.  Craig did very well sitting in the hospital all day.  He and I both got some work done – me on a mission trip and he on “his” work.  I was glad Lisa was with me for a multitude of reasons but especially when it came to driving the last two hours.  Special thanks to Craig & Jennifer Moss for their help yesterday too – it is nice to have friends!  Scott & Jennifer and Craig’s lives changed drastically when Earl passed last night.  A memorial service for Earl Kirschenman will take place at a yet to be determined date.

Copies of the proposed budget for 2014-15 were distributed last night.  They are available through this Sunday morning, 7/20.  A discussion meeting takes place at 4:00PM in the auditorium this Sunday, 7/20.  A vote, no further discussion, takes place as a part of the evening service.  Again, I am thankful to our Finance Committee members for a job well done in my opinion.

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