WEDNESDAY, 9/20/17

“As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” I Peter 4:10

Today’s Bible reading – Ecclesiastes 4-6; 2 Corinthians 12

The visitation with the Art Elliott family takes place this morning from 10:00AM until the 11:00AM celebration of life service.  Per the family’s request, the service will be brief.  Everything takes place in our church auditorium.

Since we are not having a typical morning service then I will not be preaching from the regular series tonight.  Our focus will be on prayer.  I am asking all members of our leadership team i.e. staff, deacons, et cetera to attend the 6:30PM service even if they are present for Art’s celebration of life service.  Those in places of responsibility during that hour need to fulfill their responsibilities.

Nancy Brunken was admitted to the hospital yesterday.  Heart concerns.  Pray for her.  I want to say “thank you” to Linda Green for transporting Nancy to the doctor/hospital.  Those ladies in Miss Kittie’s class really know how to minister to each other as well as to others.

Roseanne and family have pretty much gotten it narrowed down to where they would like to place Robert for his extended care.  Just need to do some paper work stuff I think and it should be settled.  Pray that Robert will adjust well.

As many of you know, Little Lane Zirlott, age 11, passed from this life on Monday, 9/18.  Lane is a nephew of Jordon & Jennifer (nee Wetterer) Zirlott.  The visitation with the family will take place tomorrow night, 9/21, from 5:00 – 8:00PM at the Bayou La Batre Church of God.  The celebration of life service will take place on Friday, 9/22, at 11:00AM also from the BLB COG.  Pray for the Zirlott family during this most difficult time.

Praying for those folks in the path of Hurricane Maria!

Regular time schedule today/tonight.

You might want to avoid coming around this hill!  Titus has fractured his left arm and will most likely get a cast today.  He has a splint now.  This is pretty crazy but really it is life.

Our family was blessed with another wonderful meal last night.  I am not going to try and list the folks bringing the meals each night because I will leave someone off inadvertently.  Just know that we are very thankful, fat and happy!  Remember, Daphne is our meal coordinator.

Let me honest here (with a wink) – Nanette Brooks has been bringing a meal each day since Lisa’s injury.  However, she is only bringing enough for me.  Her only comment to me has been, “at least I do not fall off a treadmill!”  Folks, this is a weird situation!

Joey sent Amy with a meal Monday afternoon thinking it would throw Alexander off the trail.  No such luck!

Bobby and the boys won again last night.  The Dodgers need to win two more to wrap up their division.  Would love to see the Nationals gain home field advantage throughout the playoffs but not sure if that is going to happen.  Would be nice for them.

Something else I learned last week that I could not share because of the blog being down.  I have heard the question, “who let the dogs out” like a thousand times in my life.  I now know the answer – Bob Evans!  He and I were eating lunch together one day last week when he said, “I have to go let the dogs out!”  Now you know!

This entry has been too long.

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