Today’s Bible reading – Daniel 11:36-12:13 1 John 4:1-21 Psalm 123:1-4 Proverbs 29:2-4

Rusty & C are heading home today.  What did they learn at MDA?  Basically, the doctor wants to keep her on chemo but will tweak it some to help her not be so sick because of it.  They will continue to monitor her condition.

Miss Gloria Morrison was better yesterday.  She is scheduled to have a procedure done today.  Her sister passed away and that service will be held on Saturday.  Pray for the family.

Donnie Felps’ mother, Miss Earline, remains hospitalized as she battles pneumonia in one lung.

Ricky Benefield’s (Herbert & Peggy’s son) mother-in-law is in the hospital.  Visited with her yesterday afternoon and she seemed to be doing ok.

The wedding shower for Coley & Katelyn will take place this Sunday, 12/7, from 2:00 – 3:30PM in the fellowship hall.  Registered at Target and Bayou La Batre Lumber.

The monthly men’s breakfast takes place this Saturday, 12/6, beginning at 8:00AM in the fellowship hall.  I have dropped the proverbial ball on promoting this fellowship.  My apologies!

Upward basketball league play begins this Saturday morning at 8:00AM when my two (you read that correctly) teams play each other.  I have always known that Kristy did not like me and she has now proven it by giving me the earliest game possible!  Why not give it to the new coach, Phillip Turner?  I can handle my players.  It is the parents that concern me.  Can you say Amy Reynolds, Kayla Hatcher, Daphne Hutto, Cassie Lewis?

All Christmas gifts for the residents of the Grand Bay Convalescent Home must be brought to the foyer of the auditorium no later than this Sunday night, 12/7.  Imperative!

Our GRACE team leaves this Friday, Saturday and Monday headed to Guatemala to celebrate Christmas with the families involved in the Blaukamp Ministry Center.  I will be leading that team (arriving Monday) and am already regretting letting Carla K on the team – about to drive me slap crazy!

Good day in our services yesterday.  Lisa did her usual good job with the supper for the 7:30PM Bible study.  I married way over my head!

Nanette Fontenot was stalking me in the church parking lot last night.  Just saying!

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