“You can be sure that God

will take care of everything you need,

His generosity exceeding even yours

in the glory that pours from Jesus.”

~Philippians 4:19 MSG~


Mr. Walter Green Harper continues to progress since his heart surgery last week. Plans are being made for rehab when he is ready. The family is hoping he will be in Hammond for that. Continue to pray for Mr. Walter Green and “Miss” Maxine.


Ellen Trappey is taking a group for a former college where she was on staff to Equador. Pray for them as they travel.


Don Denton

Good morning! Sorry for the delay on update with Don. Once we arrived home from St. Louis, I went into “warp” speed mode to get the house ready and the party ready for birthday.

It was an exciting event for us. We had ballons everywhere and Joshua had one of his buddy’s over during the day. The time came for the party and we ended up having about 37 people arrive for the party. It was a celebration in many ways I should say. A celebration most important of Joshua’s birth. And then to see the faces of dear friends was the icing on the cake for me.


We are working toward getting back into routine again. It takes time to finally get unpacked and situated again. Don is very tired as expected. He is very weak with being in the hospital for the length of time that he was.

I hope to get him back into rehab again. His meds are not working to the level that we hope they will. It will take another week or two before that happens. Please pray that these meds will help Don with his dizziness.

I am working at getting more sleep these days. I have allot going on with getting back into routine, working and keeping everything running so to speak.

It is beautiful here. I love Spring and the weather just does something to me. I love it.

We have several doctor appointments this week. Pray that Don will be able to get back into rehab soon.

I will post soon.

“At the name of Jesus every knee should bow…” (Philippians 2:10).
Mike Benson, Editor
NOTHING IS WORSE than the memory of a mistake…
It is like a haunting specter, hovering over your shoulder, constantly whispering one word in your ear: “Shame.” You find it hard to laugh, to hope, to dream. You know what you did. You know the pain you have caused. You cannot believe what you have allowed yourself to become.
Well, God has promised to set us free from our past and allow us to say, “I am JUST-IF-I’D NEVER SINNED!” Read Romans 3 and 4 and focus on this blessing and the two essentials that make it possible. (Dan Winkler)
“But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed,
being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,
even the righteousness of God,
through faith in Jesus Christ,
to all and on all who believe.
For there is no difference;
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
being justified freely by His grace
hrough the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood,
through faith,
to demonstrate His righteousness,
because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins
that were previously committed,
to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness,
that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
Where is boasting then?
It is excluded. By what law? Of works?
No, but by the law of faith.
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith
apart from the deeds of the law.
Or is He the God of the Jews only?
Is He not also the God of the Gentiles?
Yes, of the Gentiles also, since there is one God
who will justify the circumcised by faith
and the uncircumcised through faith.
Do we then make void the law through faith?
Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.”
~Romans 3:21-31~
Continue to pray for Mrs. Catherine Kuss and her family. Some of them will be traveling today.
