SATURDAY, 3/31/18

“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)

I did not make contact with Larry Whitehurst yesterday regarding his MRI as I was basically “disconnected” from the world on Good Friday.  I plan on talking to Larry this morning.

Marie Brooks spent Thursday night in the hospital.  She had an episode that they later determined (as far as I know) to be vertigo.  She was discharged from the hospital yesterday morning.

Big weekend for the Friendship family begins this morning with our buses running their routes followed by Sunday School at 9:15AM, Preschool Church & Children’s Church at 10:10AM and then all egg hunts at 11:00AM.  Things should end around 11:30AM or so.  Pray for this morning.

I need some guys to meet me at the church at 6:00PM today to either set up the chairs for tomorrow’s 6:30AM service or at least to have them ready.  Then need some folks to arrive a few minutes early (6:15AM or so) to make sure the chairs are ready/dry for the service.  The low for tonight is expected to be around forty nine degrees so keep that in mind regarding the 6:30AM service.  If you are cold natured, have a cold, et cetera then you may want to attend one of the later services.  I would suggest a jacket for those attending the early service.

Our 8:00AM service tomorrow may or may not be an outside service.  We will make this decision in the morning but we will definitely be having a service at that time.

Our 10:30AM service will definitely be in the auditorium.

I encourage the members of the Friendship family to be faithful in every area this weekend – praying, attending, giving, et cetera.  We tend to have strong numbers on Easter Sunday but our offerings are not always as strong.  That has always puzzled me to a degree.  We will celebrate that fact that Jesus gave so it seems that is the least we can do on this special day.

By the way, we are getting real close to offering online giving.  Details soon to come.

We are going to have a “blue moon” tonight!  What?  We had a full moon on March 1 and will now have a second i.e. “blue” full moon tonight.  February did not have a full moon this year.  Last time that happened was in 1999 and the time before that was 1980.  The next time February will not have a full moon will be 2037.  Someone remind me to post that in my February 1, 2037 blog entry.  (You can see a month having a full moon twice every three years or so)  Folks, what other pastor has this kind of information in his blog?  Just saying!

Bobby and the boys won opening game of the season yesterday.  Can they go 162 – 0?  Stay tuned!

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