Saturday

“Glory be to God, who by his mighty power at work within us is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of—infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes.”

~Ephesians 3:20 (TLB)~

Deborah Bales is at home. She is blessed and thankful her health is improving. Please continue to pray for her.

Charles Warren is making small steps in the “getting better” direction. Please continue to pray for him, his family, and the medical staff caring for him.

Mr. “Cete” Dillon has been moved to a room next door to “Miss” Ruby‘s room at North Oaks. They hope to see each other now. They both continue to improve.

Pat Hendry of Chesbrough passed away Friday night at Tulane, the only hospital that had room for him. (Pat’s mother and David’s mother were sisters.)

“Shoeboxes”

Plans are underway for OCC 2021 at FBC, Kentwood. This is a year-long project. The focus is on needy children around the world. Not only do we try to supply some needs, toothbrushes, soap, etc., but we also focus on introducing the children to Jesus. Join us in helping.

I would love to encourage those of you who have not participated before to join in this year. You can work with our church or any other church or organization, or simply pack the shoeboxes on your own. I am available to give guidance based on my experiences and training.
