Vacation Bible School has been wonderful this week. Today, we had 125 children, plus the youth and adult workers. What a joy it was to participate in working with the children who made decisions to ask Jesus into their hearts today. Thank you so much for praying for the children as they received the plan of salvation today. Please continue to pray for them as they receive additional counseling and make professions of faith at our church and some other local churches.
The VBS family night program will be at 7:00 P.M. tomorrow night. Please plan to attend to encourage and support the children. There will be a fellowship time after the program.
This afternoon on the way home from VBS, I was involved in a fender-bender when someone missed a curve. Nobody was hurt. Thank God for protecting me today just as he protected David a few weeks ago.
From Laura Cutrer:
I would like to add the familes of Greg Fortinberry and Randy Fairburn to everyones prayer list. Greg is recovering from an automobile accident that accurred on Memorial Day and is still in the hospital and Randy is fighting cancer.
