Thursday

“Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications,

prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks

be made for all men,

for kings and all who are in authority,

that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life

in all godliness and reverence.”

~1 Timothy 2:1-2, NKJV~

 

Mr. Bobby Simpson broke his food Monday while working at the family cemetery.   Yesterday, the doctor said it was a clean break of a small bone in the side of his foot.  Today, they will learn what will be done to help correct the break.  Please be in pray for Mr. Bobby.

Nancy  Carruth was admitted to a hospital in Baton Rouge last night.  She had a couple of kidney stones that she would like to be rid of.  It may be necessary to have some stents today.  Add her to your prayers today.

Pray for Betty Taylor as she sees her eye doctor again today.  Thank God she has a doctor who will help her maintain her vision.

Pray for Andy’s sister, Cindy Juban, as she continues her battle with a tumor.  She is slowly losing her vision.

I asked Cheryl Santangello for an address when we can send cards to her son, Johnnie “Lil Man” Santangello.  The good news from the family is that Johnnie and Megan will be getting married this week.  You can send cards to him/them at Post Office Box 294, Independence, LA 70443.  Please continue to pray for the Johnnie and the family.

“Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.

Cleanse your hands, you sinners;

and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”

Macy Gueldner’s family is celebrating an anniversary this week.  It’s been a year since she was diagnosed.  The lives of each family member have been greatly changed, but they certainly “stepped up” and did all within their power to support Macy in her big battle.  I thank God for the grandmother who reached out to us for prayer and for the faith and faithfulness of the family during this difficult year.  It’s been my honor to pray for Macy and the family this year.

Mr. Jay Hugh Young is in rehab in Hammond.  Let’s pray he will soon be well enough to return to the Sixth Ward.

Disaster Relief Work in the West Monroe area yesterday:

  • The La. Baptist Children’s Home had thirty trees down.
  • “There were 51 volunteers today (Tuesday) completed 20 jobs assessed many others, with three injuries
    One fell and broke his hip, one fell and broke his arm and one passed out due to being overheated and a diabetic.
    Pray for their recovery.”

(Information via Dr. Gibbie McMillian)

  • Of course, in addition to the children’s home, there were churches, homes, businesses, etc. that had damage.  Many people are without electricity.  Many people cannot move around easily because of the number of trees down.  Let’s lend support in any way we can.  Thankfully, we have our Baptist Disaster Relief workers willing to step in and do all they can.  What a great program!

I hope you are making plans to attend our Third Thursday meeting tomorrow night at the cabin.

Yesterday, at Hope Center, I talked with one of two ladies there that I did not know. It turned out they live in my neighborhood.  It was good to meet them and to begin a new friendship through our ministry at Hope.  Hope Center is doing well in bringing like-minded people together and in providing a service that is needed in our association.  Thank-you to each person who helped with the vision, the opening process, or the daily operation there. May God  richly bless you for your concern for the needs of others.

Operation Christmas Child – We will be packing the shoe boxes November 1st.  It’s not too late to bring in a few more items for the children.

“God, hear my prayer;

Thank God for all those who safely came through the bad weather last night.  Pray for emergency workers as they work in areas, such as West Monroe, where there was extensive damage.  Pray for LA Baptist Disaster Relief Teams, especially the chain saw teams, as they work to help people recover from the storm.  Be thankful for people who are trained and willing to help others in need.

Continue to pray for Mr. Earl Dees and his family and Mrs. Anne Ellzey and her family.  Thank God and pray for those who dedicate their lives to helping care for those with medical needs.

Pray for those on the front line in the fight to save others from Ebola.  Thank God for people such as Dr. Kently Brantley and Nina Pham, nurse, who work with those who are so ill.  May God watch over each one who gives their lives to helping those who are ill.

  • “I have 3 grandchildren, so I do 3 shoeboxes. The whole family is in on collecting items for the boxes all year. It warms my heart when one of my grandchildren puts a Sonic toy or some other small item on my desk and tells me ‘it is for the boxes’. At the time I pack them I add a Christmas card and a Birthday card for that child. The birthday card can be an avenue to start the conversation about Christ’s birth. I’ll never know what impact my boxes have on anyone but I know I have done what my heart felt lead to do to share Christ’s LOVE.” – Peggy D.

Family Update – David and I made emergency flights to Richmond and kept our grandchildren so their parents could be in Texas with family members during  a difficult time.  We were so blessed by that experience.  We got to witness their everyday life both as grandparents and parents.  I am so thankful we had that time together, especially because their parents were much needed in Texas.  We got home last night and look forward to learning what we missed and getting back in our routine.  Home always looks extra good after being away.

Thanks for your faithfulness to God, family, friends, and total strangers through your prayers.  One prayer I have had lately is for more prayer time and more depth to my prayers.  I’m sharing it with you so I will be more diligent to do that.  You will be my accountable partners.  Thanks, friends.

Macy Gueldner

By Mary Catherine Gueldner — 20 hours ago

Little miss Macy has clinic today, but during her break, she’ll be in a commercial shoot for Our Lady of the Lake. As I type (while on my 15 minute lunch break,) she’s getting hair, makeup, and wardrobe done. Ha! I told them that it wouldn’t take long for hair, since she has none!

She had a bad week after her last LPIT, Vincristine, and steroids (which is her norm.) She recovered and had a good week last week.

We’ve been super busy (and TIRED,) but things have been going okay.

I hope to get some good pictures to show you from the Sunday tea in Memphis. We had a REALLY nice day! Company D danced, which is a dance group of young adults with Down syndrome (I cried through their beautiful performance.) A violinist and harpist performed solos, and the Germantown choir sang. It was all so very nice! Macy didn’t wear her crown for long, but she stood on the smaller stage (by herself) and took it all in, while twirling and dancing.

Our princess Macy has had a busy week, she may need a personal assistant soon to organize her appearances and shoots 🙂

Please pray for “Lil’ Man” and his family as the doctors try to figure out the recent tests.

Thank you for your prayers for my family. Your prayers were answered as my dad was healed today, by the Great Physician in Heaven. He passed away at home this evening.

Thank you for so many kind words, prayers, and love for our family. The memorial service for my father will be Friday, October 10, at 2:00 PM, at First Baptist McKinney, TX. Visitation will precede the service at 1:00 PM. Jennie and I will return to Richmond on Saturday.

Operation Christmas Child

  • 5 Years ago, Pastor Sosa organized a small distribution for some children in a remote community in Belize. Most of the children were immigrants whose parents worked on the citrus plantations in grueling conditions. After the distribution, the children kept coming back to the area where the boxes were given out. Pastor Sosa began to organize Sunday Schools for the children in the yard of one of the parents. A church congregation grew out of the outreach. He later moved to the area and today the church meets under a thatch shelter in the front of his yard which was erected with the help of some of the parents. He plans to continue ministering to the community and to obtain land on which to erect a permanent facility.

“A word aptly spoken

is like apples of gold in setting of silver.”

~Proverbs 25:11~

 

Today, let’s pray for categories of people.

  • Those who do not know Jesus as their Savior.
  • Those who are hungry or lacking housing and other basic needs.
  • Those who have difficult family or work relationships.
  • Those who are lonely (sometimes even though there are many people around them).
  • Those who have major decisions and lack the knowledge or judgment to make good decision.
  • Those whose lives seem to be a series of poor choices.
  • Those who live in the past or present, but cannot relate to both.
  • Those who are hurting, seemingly without relief.
  • Those who are homebound.
  • Those who do not have relationships/conversations with other people all day.
  • Those who have sent a loved one away to college, a job, etc.
  • Those who are family caregivers.
  • Other situations as they come to your mind….

God love each of these people.  He has placed us here on earth to fill in for Him to minister to these people.  Let’s find ways, daily, to help others.

Operation Christmas Child

  • Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. – Psalm 4:1 (NKJV)
  • “This is the beginning of our “sort”, just getting things in the appropriate aged boxes, next step to actually pack them so all the goodies fit inside nicely! There are 35 here and we probably have enough stuff to do a lot more. Feeling blessed to be able to share these with kids all over the world!” – Kari B.
  • Sophia, the daughter of a Pastor in Belize, received a shoebox gift in her church 5 years ago. Sophia was then a young teenager and was excited to be receiving a gift. Sophia saw her parents organize the event and saw the impact on the children. She became more involved in her church eventually helping to lead the youth ministry. This year when OCC came back to her community, she was the main coordinator for the event in her church and also encouraged and assisted her parents to mobilize other churches in the community to participate in the program. She is now actively involved in community activities and is doing her degree at the local university so that she can bring change to her community.
  • After his life is spared, a boy comes to faith in Christ when he receives a shoebox gift from Operation Christmas Child.
  • If you like to include a picture in your shoebox gift, … (a) DIY frame would be a fun addition! Encouragement, comfort, and support go a long way in helping people get through the difficult days of their lives.  
  • “Super proud of our family’s “stash” for Operation Christmas Child!
    We have everything from school supplies, toys, clothes, and hygiene products! We set a goal to fill twice as many boxes as last year and I’m pretty sure we’ll end up packing more than that!” – Dora L.

Frozen Food for the First of the Month

If you have not put up some frozen food to share this month, it’s not too late.  You can also send small packs of vegetables/fruit you froze when the food was harvested.  Another option is to purchase suitable frozen food. Think about different food groups,  What would you want to eat?  Some other ideas would be breakfast foods, desserts, and cooked meat.  Be sure to package or purchase small quantities.  There will be only two people in each of the families we are sharing with this month.

Bring your food to my Sunday School classroom before class this week.  The food will be delivered Sunday.

Thank-you to those who have shared.  You certainly have been a blessing to those who cannot or no longer could prepare good meals for their themselves and their loved ones.

Hope Center
First, let me say I’m so thankful for volunteers who have signed up to help.  There were four more from my church today.  I know they will be blessed each day they volunteer.  Our volunteer list is up to fifty, but that we will need and be thankful for more volunteers as new services are added.  Next week, that will be the food delivery to people who qualify.
Today, applications will again be taken for our first food delivery.  Applications will be taken at Home Center in Roseland from 1:00 – 5:00.  It is a simple process.
The first delivery of food to the center will be some time Monday.  Volunteers will be needed Tuesday – Thursday to organize the food and to pack the boxes.  Other volunteers will be needed to assist in the delivery of food on Friday.  Let me know if you can be one of these volunteers or call 247-2235 and leave your name and day/time with them.
God blesses!  That’s a guarantee!
If you have volunteered, let me compliment you on the way you talked and worked with those who came into Hope Center.  You have each displayed a tender, Christian heart of service.  Others have been blessed each and every day!
I need to share something else that touches my heart every day.  There is a large magazine rack of Bibles and other Christian literature that is free to anyone who chooses to make some selections.  I have seen this happen each and every day I was there.  I always had it provided by my family and my church, but that is not true for some people.  That’s another ministry of Hope Center .

I trust you are enjoying the new format.  I am.
