Saturday

“But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself him who is godly;

the Lord will hear when I call to Him.”

~Psalm 4:3~

Pray for Rene Deck of Osyka.  She’s had trouble with her back all week, but wants to be well enough to teach her Sunday School class tomorrow.

Andrew and Kara Walker Faller proudly announce the birth of their second son, John Walker Faller.  He was 8 lb. 6 oz. and 20 in. long.  Both mother and baby are doing well.  Rev. Dennis Walker is the extra proud grandpaw.

Pray for all the ladies attending the state WMU conference in Bedico today to learn how to strengthen their WMU and how to better minister in their local churches.

Tomorrow night at FBC, Kentwood we will have a potluck supper in connection with the Sunday School training offered at 5:30.

Heart to Heart with Holley: What always comes right before a miracle
Looking forward to the Lord’s Day tomorrow.  Worship in the church of your choice, but be present for Bible study and worship.

Friday Addition

I forgot to remind you of August Awesome Mondays this week at Line Creek.  Before I forget it, Monday, Dr. Milton Kliesch will be the guest preacher for the  20th.

The Anual Two Rivers Senior Adult Revival will be September 10th – 12th.

  • Monday @ KBC, Kentwood with Rev. Don Meadows (The Lord’s Church) sharing

Last night’s Third Thursday meeting at the  cabin was so special.  Everything was very good.  There was surely a “Sweet Sweet Spirt” here.

 

Thursday Addition

Pray for all those involved in the tragic situation in LaPlace this morning.  My heart breaks for those young, dedicated officers and their families.  We need to recognize the work they do daily all across our country and let them know we appreciate them.

Pray for Andy and Betty Taylor.  This has been a hard week for them medically.  May God continue to use them as they serve Him.
