Tuesday

“For he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant.”

Luke 1:48a (NIV)

There will be an associational Lottie Moon Tea Saturday at East Fork Baptist Church at 2 P.M.  If you are a lady between 5 and 105, you are invited to come learn more about this great missionary and enjoy some tea cakes made using her recipe with a cup of hot tea or chocolate.  It will be fun and informative.  Call me if you need more information.  I hope to see you there.

From Action News 17 concerning Jon-Michael Williams

Williams continues to blink his eyes, move his toes, and give other indications that he is potentially aware of both physical and audio stimulus, sources told ActionNews17.com this week.

Friends and family breathed a sigh of relief after Monday’s perfusion tests came back with positive results for the teen, whom doctors say faces a long road to recovery but that with time it is possible.I have three obituaries today.  Please pray for the families.

Thank-you for praying for Jon-Michael as he had the tests yesteray.

I have three death notices today.
