“Whenever you possibly can,

do good to those who need it.

Never tell your neighbors to wait until tomorrow

if you can help them now.”

~Proverbs 3:27-28 GNT~

 

Mark Shaw is home.  I’m thanking God, but still praying.

Bubba Huckaby had some fluid removed.  He’s still at North Oaks.  Keep praying for Bubba and Linda.

Wednesday

“This is what the LORD Almighty said:

‘Administer true justice;

show mercy and compassion to one another.

Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless,

the foreigner or the poor.

Do not plot evil against each other.’

~Zechariah 7:9-10~

 

 

Bubba and Linda Huckaby – Today, I want to add Bubba’s faithful caregiver.  We all know the importance the caregiver is in the care and recovery from any illness.  As you pray for one, pray also for the other one.

Christian Smalley and his family – Christian is Karen Miller’s grandson who was injured while playing baseball.  He continues to need our prayers.

Bruce and Dorothy Fussell – Both have been sick.  Their daughter is the caregiver for both of them.

Continue to pray for the Schwartz family.  Jimmy is slowing “losing ground”.

Children in Action, our missions organization, will study Matthew 14:13-21 tonight.  It’s about the loaves and fish.  Bring you children and grandchildren and see how we will use a cartoon and Goldfish crackers.  We meet at 6 P.M. in the L-wing.

 

The Associational WMU will meet Monday at Montpelier.  The pastor and some ladies from Osyka Baptist Church will be there to tell us about one of their flood relief activities that involved the whole church, a brown bag ministry.  You don’t have to be a member of a WMU or even a lady to come.   We will begin at 10 A.M.

 

Friday Morning Bible Study will meet at 10 A..M. and has plans to complete John 10.  It’s always a good time to join Bible Study.

 

Missions Need – HARD, INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPED CANDY!  Each of our 325 shoeboxes will have a small bag of candy.  We are almost ready to pack them up, so now is the time to bring in lots of hard candy.  You can leave it in the office if I am no there.

 

Do your best today!

Each of you should use

Please pray for Susan Rimes.  This month marks five years since she started having problems with kidney stones.  Sadly, she is still having the same issue.  Please pray for her and for her family.

Robbie Lynn Kirby doesn’t live here any more, but we still hurt to hear that her health is not good.  Remember to keep her in your prayers.

The Schwartz family continues to ask us to pray for God’s mercy and comfort as Jimmy goes through some difficult days.

George Eddie Lee is doing better this week than last week.  Thank God for that improvement.

Operation Christmas Child “Shoebox” Folding – Yesterday morning, a number of people gathered to help prepare our shoeboxes for packing at the end of the month.  Even though we are doing more boxes than ever before, the boxes were complete and neatly stacked by groups in two hours!  That’s good, but the very best part is that there was such a sweet, loving spirit that could not be denied.   We all felt so blessed to be a part of doing something special to help children around the world have some meaningful gifts, but mainly to have the opportunity to learn about Jesus and his love for them.

Opportunity – Thursday, at 10:30, we will be at Kentwood Manor.  Join us in being a  bright spot in their lives this week.  Bubba Roberts and his guitar will be part of the group and such a joy to the residents.

 

Be an instrument of joy, peace, and contentment this week.

Monday

Sell your possessions and give to the poor.

Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out,

a treasure in heaven that will never fail,

where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.

For where your treasure is,

there your heart will be also.

~Luke 12:33-34~

Sunday

For the kingdom of God

is not a matter of eating and drinking,

but of righteousness,

peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,  

because anyone who serves Christ in this way

is pleasing to God and receives human approval.

 Let us therefore make every effort

to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.

Romans 14:17-19

 

 

David saw the retina specialist Friday and got a good report.  Both retinas are still attached.  The gas bubble has more breaking up to do before David can see much.  His eyedrops were discontinued and his restrictions reduced.  It’s looking better!  Please continue to pray for us.

Please continue to pray for Mr. Burnell Simpson and Jimmy Schwartz as well as their caregivers and family.

Prayers are still needed for those who have been, are, and will be in the path of Hurricane Matthew.  Also, pray for those who are already in place to help them recover.  We have great work done by Samaritan’s Purse and Southern Baptist Disaster Relief.  They are big organizations that go wherever the need is and do it well.  I thank God for them.
