I’ve been forgetting to include a prayer request from Kay Roberts.  Her sister-in-law, Carol Ann Alford (Jimmy’s wife), is preparing for knee surgery next week, but has developed a kidney infection.  Kaye asks that we pray the infection clears up so Carol Ann can have the surgery as scheduled.

If the righteous receive their due on earth,

how much more the ungodly and the sinner!

A psalm of David.

The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.                                                                                                  ~Psalm 23:1-3 (NIV)~

Roberts Wilson is improving from pneumonia.  Keep him in your prayers.

Krista Easley, daughter-in-law of Donnie and Teri Easley, apparently had a stroke yesterday.  The family requests prayer for this young woman.

Please continue to pray for Linda K. Graves.  She is not sitting around since she moved from Kentwood, but using her wonderful voice to bless others in her new church and back in Kentwood.  One of her songs last night was “Beulah Land”.  I’m so glad she continues to use her talent for the Lord.

 

Thanks to those all those who came to the cabin last night.  We are so blessed to have this special time at the cabin.

I’m excited about M-Jam for the children who attend missions class.  This will be their first opportunity to go to a state meeting like this.  Please pray for those who will be going to learn more about missions and to have their hearts encouraged to be a part of mission work at their young age.

     “Praise the LORD!….Praise Him, sun and moon; Praise Him, all you stars of light! 

Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, and you waters above the heavens! 

Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He commanded and they were created….

Fire and hail, snow and clouds; stormy wind, fulfilling His word;

mountains and all hills; fruitful trees and all cedars; beasts and all cattle;

creeping things and flying fowl….

Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted;

His glory is above the earth and heaven.”

Annie Armstrong Easter Offering – WHY DO MISSIONARIES NEED HELP FROM AAEO? – https://www.anniearmstrong.com/mission-central/why-do-missionaries-need-help-from-aaeo

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness;

and to goodness, knowledge;

and to knowledge, self-control;

and to self-control, perseverance;

and to perseverance, godliness;

and to godliness, mutual affection;

and to mutual affection, love.

For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure,

they will keep you from being ineffective

and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

~ 2 Peter 1:5-8 (NIV)~
