Sunday

 

You, LORD, are my lamp;

the LORD turns my darkness into light.

~2 Samuel 22:29~

 

Jordan Hawkins, a football player who was injured Friday night, is better and back at home Saturday afternoon.  I’ve always been happy to hear that those who left a campus in an ambulance were able to return home with less serious injuries than first considered.  Thank you, God, for Jordan’s good report yesterday and for those of all schools who had such injuries.  Seeing both sets of players gather in one hurdle and praying speaks highly of the schools, the families, the coaches, and the players.

 

Please pray for Gloria Gill again.  Her A-fib has returned.

 

Rev. Wendell Rhodus will be preaching this morning at FBC, Kentwood at 10:30.  I’m looking forward to hearing him again.

 

Tonight, there will be an associational meeting for Two Rivers at FBC, Kentwood at 6 P.M.  Everyone is invited to come to FBC, Kentwood tonight for 6 P.M.

 

Tomorrow morning, the Two Rivers WMU will meet at Spring Creek Baptist Church.  All are invited to come hear Rev. Don Meadows of Taylor Creek Baptist Church speak about the Two Rivers compassion ministry.  Come get some hints for your church.

 

Thursday night, at 6:30, we will gather at the cabin for our monthly Third Thursday gathering.  If you have not been before, I invite you to come join us.  For more information, you can contact me through this site or you can call us.

 

Pray for me as I share missions with the children who are new members of FBC, Kentwood.  Pray I can teach them in an informative, yet fun way.  Mainly, I pray they learn information about missions that will stick with them and influence them for the rest of their lives.

 

“Beneath the Cross of Jesus”

 

Read the Bible – Acts 21-22 & Psalm 129

Thursday

I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere,

lifting up holy hands,

without wrath and doubting.

Rene Terrell of Osyka had a 99% heart blockage that was repaired with a stent.  She is home now and feels thankful.  You can join her in thanking God for a successful procedure.

Jake Fowler broke his right thumb in the Sumner football game.  He required surgery, which was yesterday morning in Covington.  I called Wendy yesterday and found her mom was there with Jake as he rested.  The break was worse than everyone first thought.

Dominic Terrese, a classmate from Amite High is hospitalized following a hear attack.  As you pray for him, please also pray for his wife, Jane, and other family members.  Dominic and Jane live in Loranger.

George Cutrer had a post surgery check-up.  All seems to be going well.  Thank God for George’s good report.

Donna Fay Miller was able to return home late yesterday afternoon.  I’m sure she is so thankful to have her procedure done and be back at home.  Thank you for praying for her.

~James 5:16b, NKJV~

Remaining Faithful

School has been underway for at least a month, just long enough for students to get settled in to new routines, teachers, and classmates. Many missionary kids (MKs) are homeschooled, some attend local national schools, and others go to boarding school. College-aged MKs are usually thousands of miles and oceans away from their families. Please pray for MKs as they face unique challenges like extraordinarily slow internet, homesickness, or adjustments living in a different culture than the one where they grew up. Pray that they will remain faithful to God as they grow in knowledge of Him.

(This came to my computer this morning.  Since I have four MKs, one a college freshmen and three in an international school at home (Europe), I felt it might encourage others to pray for children who live in cultures and environments different to what children around here do.

 

Operation Christmas Child – If you are interested in making some purchases this week, please check out the blue page on the black clipboard on the table under the stairs to the balcony.  Sign the page for items will will purchase.  Thanks!

Monday

But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back.

Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

~Luke 6:35~

 

Shelbie Travis is scheduled to return home today and a long stay at two different hospitals.  She will have home health checking on her twice a day.  Thank you for all your prayers for her.

Donna Fay Miller will have a heart ablation early this morning at OLOL.  Pray for Donna Fay to know God’s peace as she goes for this procedure.

Maddie’s Miracle points our the current needs for Mattie, the granddaughter of a high school classmate and friend.  The family certainly appreciates your prayers.

Barbara Battles is hospitalized with an infection.  Let’s pray they get this cleared up quickly.

 

Last night, I had the wonderful opportunity to speak with the youth from FBC, Kentwood about Operation Christmas Child.  Then, they folded 200 shoeboxes in about 20 minutes.  I must tell you they were wonderful listeners and hard workers.  They even moved the boxes to the room we will use for our packing party on November 4th.  Those who work with them regularly and their parents can be very proud of the fine young people they are.

 

The Senior Adult Revival begins this morning with coffee and choir practice at 9:30 with the meeting at 10:00 followed by lunch.  Bro. Randy from Mt. Nebo will be the speaker.  This is always a wonderful opportunity.

 

Thursday is “Take Your Bible to School Day”.  I think the name explains itself well.

Thanks to all who have contributed to the Georgia Barnett Offering for Louisiana missions and the shipping charges for the “shoeboxes“.

Thanks to those of you who brought items for Operation Christmas Child this week.  We are getting close to having all we need.  If you would like to know some items we could use more of, please check the blue clipboard on the table under the balcony stairwell.  You can sign for what you choose to purchase.  I will replace the block with a updated list next Sunday.  Thanks to the ladies who worked with me this week in sorting, counting, and preparing your donations for the packing party.

 

I look forward to the opportunities God has for us this week.

Saturday

Anxiety weighs down the heart,

but a kind word cheers it up.

~Proverbs 12:25~

 

Mrs. Ruby Dillon is in room 4101 at North Oaks.  That’s on the fourth floor at the main entrance to the hospital.  She would be pleased to know you are praying for her.

Mrs. Peggy Haynes, who had only a 20% chance of survival, has beat the odds one more time.  “Miss” Peggy is Brady Haynes mother.  Brady served as youth minister here about fifteen years ago.  Prayers have made the difference in “Miss” Peggy’s life.

Please continue to pray for Donna Fay Miller as she prepares for a heart ablation early Monday morning at OLOL.

 

 

Don’t forget to purchase some hair “fixin’s” for the girl’s “shoeboxes”.  Anything a girl from 4-14 would wear in their hair is the collection item for the week.

Please continue to pray for Shelbie Travis.  Her doctor is working hard to determine why she is still not improving as he expected.  Pray for her family as they continue to help take care of her and baby Austyn.

Update on Josiah Huckaby:

Update: Josiah had a bit of a rough day yesterday & this morning. He has 2 issues that are causing him some stress. First, he has been retaining some fluid which effects his breathing but they have given him some Lasix to help with that. Second, they think his g-tube site is infected…so he is fighting that. They started antibiotics this morning & he seemed to be doing better this afternoon. We are also waiting to find out what cardiology’s plan is. They will be doing a heart cath just to make sure he doesn’t have any heart issues that they haven’t found during his echos. Once we have a date/plan, we will be sure to update everyone. Also, Josiah now has a primary day nurse…and we must say she is pretty awesome! We will be working towards finding a night primary for him too. He will definitely benefit from having primary nurses because they will hopefully be able to pick up on small changes & catch any issues that could cause him to go into another crisis. All we can do is continue to praise God for all He has done & continues to do for us!!! Thanks to everyone who has prayed for us, helped pay for meals at the hospital/gas/groceries, and called/text. We are so blessed to have such a great support system!!!

Maddie is the grandchild of one of my classmates.  She is sick.  Please join her facebook page to stay updated on how to pray for her.  On Facebook – Mattie’s Miracles  Thanks!  You can “like” the page if you want to follow Mattie’s journey.

Saturday

Then Agrippa said to Paul,

“Do you think that in such a short time

you can persuade me to be a Christian?”

Paul replied, “Short time or long—

I pray to God that not only you

but all who are listening to me today

may become what I am,

except for these chains.”

Operation Christmas Child “Shoeboxes”

  • Tomorrow, we will be collection wash cloths and bars of soap.
  • Next week, we will focus on barrettes and other hair fixings for little girls.
  • Again, I must say thank-you to the many people who have contributed in various ways.  Together, we can make this another very productive year.
  • We are getting to the point when we will put our boxes together the first Saturday of November.  I hope to see many of you at the Packing Party.  I promise you will be blessed when you see the many shoeboxes you have helped to pack.

 

 

I want to conclude today with a Facebook post Bro. Danny Smith of Spring Creek Baptist Church shared this morning.  I’m sure it will touch your heart like it did mine.  Before you read it, I want to say how thankful I am for all who have served in Texas, Louisiana, or Florida in the last month.  I know of members from East Fork, New Zion, and Spring Creek who have already worked with Disaster Relief in these areas.  Thank-you to each one and each church represented!

The last three or four days have been a blur and in many ways I have felt a little disconnected not being able to do what I love to do but these last few days in Fort Meyers have really blessed me beyond measure.

First I have met some “volunteers” who work harder and longer than I have ever worked before in my life. If there is a space on my body that is not sore I can’t identify it! But my heart is full!

Second today we had someone from the community who came and volunteered with us they just wanted to give something back. She worked hard right alone with us and then thanked us for coming to help. She said she and her husband will be back tomorrow.

Tonight we all went out to eat-you will probably see the pictures of us eating what you can’t or won’t see and what you don’t know is the kindness we were shown and appreciation we were given.

I could not handle it and teared up more than once. To have these strangers come thank us just for being here, to have people want to take our picture, to have people bring us some candy or just stop by to say thanks and talk for a moment was more than I could take. But after washing my face I was able to just look at the faces of people who saw who we are and where we are from as they simply thanked us. It reminded me why ministries like this are so important.

I hope that there will never be a need for this kind of ministry again but if there is I hope it works out where you can take part in it. Yes it’s work- next time I will try to go with a lazier crew-but it is doing what Jesus talked about when He talked about giving a cup of cold water in His name.

I look forward to being back home but I will always remember these days as God has blessed and meeting these people has touched my life!

I think I will always remember the one guy who look like he wanted to say something but just could not bring himself to do it. He finally looked me straight in the eye made sure I was looking and nodded as if to say thanks but I can’t talk about it but I feel it. I know what he meant! God bless!

 

May this day bless your life in a special way!  May you be a blessing to some else today!

Anna Lee
