“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.”  (Psalm 19:14 KJV)

Today’s Bible reading – Acts 9-10

Sharon Jardee’s surgery went well and the doctor was satisfied with the results.  I totally missed her surgery as she had been told it would take place in the afternoon.  However, they apparently took her first so when I got to the hospital at noon she was already in recovery.  I stayed in Mobile for a couple of hours and visited her once she got back to her room.  If all goes well, she will be discharged on Monday.

Our bus ministry workers will meet at 8:30AM today before going out into the fields to visit.  Tomorrow will be the annual bus ministry Thanksgiving meal which will take place immediately following the 10:30AM service.

Regular schedule tomorrow morning.  Lord willing, I will be preaching in both of those services.

Tomorrow evening, 11/20, we will gather at the First United Methodist Church at 6:00PM for the annual community Thanksgiving service.  All members of the Friendship family are encouraged to attend this service.

Our students will be traveling to Gulf Shores and The Factory after tomorrow night’s service.  This will be an all nighter for them.  Some sort of a trampoline park.  Pray for this activity which is being led by our student ministry intern, Josh Schlehuber.

Today is my least favorite Saturday of the college football season.  Alabama and Auburn both play lesser teams which is really no fun.  It is a good payday for the lesser teams but the games are generally boring.  I do look plan to catch some of the Florida vs LSU game.

Speaking of LSU, Rusty came over late yesterday afternoon for a visit.  However, Soy would not walk over and visit.  Rusty was visibly shaken as he seemingly did not realize how hurt Soy is over their break up.  Can you say “Peyton Place?”

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