Today’s Bible reading – Ezekiel 47:1-48:35 1 Peter 2:11-3:7 Psalm 119:49-64 Proverbs 28:12-13

Carla Kyser continues to be sick.  The doctor tried to admit her to the hospital yesterday but she wiggled off the hook.  In my opinion, her only problem is that she is hard headed!  And she is too hard headed to admit that she is hard headed!

I did not get an update on Eddie Whitmore’s visit to the doctor yesterday but will try to do so today.

Caroline Ford is sick.  She is at home but has been really, really sick.  She will be mad because I put this on the blog but she will get over it.

They have diagnosed Melba Schafer as having a severe case of Crohn’s disease.  They have begun treating it and she is better.

Lisa’s aunt, Virginia, is in the hospital.  We need to visit but she is not happy at being there and wants someone to get her out so we probably need to stay away for the time being.

Prayer time tonight from 5:00 – 7:00PM.  Actually, the auditorium is open much earlier for anyone wishing to come before 5:00PM.  I am thinking we will suspend these prayer times during the month of December.  Will make a definitive decision by Sunday.

Remember, we will have a Thanksgiving service tomorrow from 10:00 – 11:00AM.  Nothing in the evening i.e. service, classes, Bible studies, et cetera.

Nanette Fontenot called yesterday and wants us to have Thanksgiving together.  Are you serious?  Says she wants it to be like “old times!”  (Folks, we have never had Thanksgiving together but please do not tell her or she will explode!)

I think the fence company finished installing the fence around the playground yesterday.  Looks good.  I am grateful.  The new playground has already proven to be practical and beneficial to our preschoolers.

Iron Bowl week.  When I was younger, I used to read every article, listen to the radio, et cetera all of the week leading up to the “big” game.  I find myself now just wanting Saturday to come and let the game be played and be over.  Too much media coverage for me.  I like college football but enough is enough.

My Upward team will practice today, Lord willing.  I am predicting that we will not lose a game this season!  How can I be so confident?  Well, I do know the two guys coaching the other team!  (Only two teams in our league)  Just saying!

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