Friday

“I pray this: that your love will keep on growing

in knowledge and every kind of discernment.”

~Philippians 1:9 HCSB~

J.D. Smith has had another procedure this week. Pray for good, long-term results.

Wanda Smith has shingles. Pray it will be a light and short-term situation for her.

Earlo Labauve, father of Sharon Martin, has fractured his hip and is in North Oaks.

Pray for David as he has another follow-up appointment on the eye that had the cataract removed. He also has an appointment Monday.

Third Thursday – It’s night to have guests for supper and such wonderful fellowship and music to bind us all together on a night with impending bad weather. We had three new guests and at least eight churches represented. We are so blessed.

Friday Morning Bible Study – We will begin at John 6:16 this morning. Feel free to join us.

Operation Christmas Child – You are welcome to visit the church today to get cards from the OCC wreaths. Each card gives a specific need for the shoeboxes we will be packing and will probably cost $10 or less to make the purchases, depending on where you shop. Additional cards will be added the first Sunday of June.

How does God what us to “do” what we read about in the Bible? Be still and listen. He will tell us.
