Two Missionaries Killed in Jamaica: http://www.christianpost.com/news/american-missionaries-found-brutally-murdered-jamaica-163181/

If we are thrown into the blazing furnace,

the God we serve is able to deliver us from it,

and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand.

 But even if he does not,

we want you to know, Your Majesty,

that we will not serve your gods

or worship the image of gold you have set up.”

~Daniel 3: 17-18~

I didn’t look for this verse to go with that article.  It came to my computer.

Let’s continue to pray for Jeff Tolar as he has back surgery, his fourth one, today.

Caleb Smith, son of Dr. and Mrs. Danny Smith of Spring Creek, was ordained to the ministry Sunday and serving at Bethany of Baywood Church.   Let’s pray for this young man and for the church where he will be serving.  I heard him speak a couple times and felt he was sharing from a tender heart.

Mrs. Judi Grimes Correnti is at her daughter’s home in Independence.  Please pray for this family as they are facing some difficult days.

 

Pray for the victims to the recent floods in our area.  There are lots of ways you can help.  I trust each of you/your churches are showing God’s love through this wonderful opportunity we have right here.

Pray for the world situation today.  We need to keep our political leaders on our prayer lists on days like today in Brussels and on all the other days too!  As we pray for them, let’s also pray for our religious leaders. There are so many lost who still need the Savior!

Sunday

So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm

and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you,

whether by word of mouth or by letter

 

Mr. John Phillips will be at North Oaks for a few more days.  Keep praying for him.

 

Jason attended the funeral for his friend Bobby Black yesterday.  David and I would love to tell you a little about Bobby and his awesome life.  His service yesterday reflected the awesome witness Bobby was and was held in a packed mega-church.  Bobby accomplished much in his 43 years and impacted so many lives!

David and I attended the wake for Mrs. Willene Howell yesterday.  Her life was simple and focused on God and family.  She impacted her family and friends with her love and the sweet love she had for her Jesus.  She join her husband in Heaven just a few short days after his arrival there.

 

Tonight at 7 P.M. on Fox News, a program, “Passion”, will be broadcast live from New Orleans.  The ads show a modern day interpretation of some of the life of Jesus.  It could possibly be instrumental in the lives of many people.  I’m going to give it some of my time.  You may want to check it our too.

 

Mt. Nebo Baptist Church and pastor’s home have made more progress in recovery from the 2016 flood.  Give them some support with time, money, meals, etc.
