Monday

“The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous,

and His ears are open to their prayers.”

~1 Peter 3:12a, NKJV~

Two sweet ladies from Amite (Written by their sister, Virgie Vining Morgan)
Dear friends and family, I really need your prayers this week. My 2 remaining sisters will be going through some surgical procedures in the next few days. Gloria will be having her carotid arteries cleaned tomorrow. The Dr. told her this would be very serious surgery for someone her age (85). Edwina will be having heart cath and endoscope on Wed. She is 81. Both will be under anesthesia which is risky to some extent. Prayers are really appreciated at this time.
Harrell Family
Jimmy said his mother broke a rib.  Pray for the family as they care for his mother daily.

Doug is doing so much better.
He is medically stable!
He does physical therapy twice a day Monday-Friday.
We still desire your prayers for complete healing. Thank you all for prayers and kind actions. Will update in a few weeks. I return to teaching August 3rd. I will teach second grade at Tylertown Primary School.

As summer comes to an end, I’m so thankful for all the Vacation Bible Schools is our area. Each one touched young lives.  It blesses my heart to learn of all the baptisms that were done in various churches as a result of all the Vacation Bible Schools this summer.  As Bro. J.P. Miles would say, VBS is our greatest ministry and outreach of the year.  I’m so thankful for all the churches and individuals who have invested extra time in our children this summer.  Your efforts have eternal results!
