Saturday

“You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.” 

~2 Corinthians 9:11 NIV~

 

 

 

Linda B. Williams requests prayers for husband, Jimmy.

Friends & Relatives, we are in need of your prayers, again. Following Jimmy’s hospitalization a few months ago after he had the heart cath, his prognosis wasn’t good. He never had recovered from the quadruple bypass surgery he had in 12/2018, and the coronary artery disease is severe. His doctor decided to have a Physical Therapist with his Home Health agency start seeing him and see if he could get his strength back. He did not progress and was discharged by his therapist. When he went to his doctor, she put the order in for Hospice so they can help Jimmy have the best quality of life possible. She explained the things Hospice can do for him that Home Health can’t. She also told us it did not mean he would only live for a certain length of time. It meant Hospice will provide services that will help make his life easier. There are no options left for treating his failing heart. He was admitted to Hospice today. Thanks in advance for your prayers for Jimmy and our family.

Operation Christmas Child

  • We will continue with painting the inside lids of shoe boxes today at 1 P.M. in the fellowship hall.  We had a good group last Saturday and look for a good group today.  When the boxes dry, we will fold and stack them for our packing party in five weeks.
  • Set aside the last Saturday of October for our Christmas packing party.  It’s amazing how quickly we can pack all those shoeboxes!
  • FBC, Kentwood will again serve as a collection site.  The hours of drop-off will vary from day to day, so check the OCC website or call the church office before you come to leave your boxes with us.
