First, I need to say the WMU meeting this morning was great. The speaker touched our hearts! I don’t think there was a dry eye in the sanctuary! I would have loved for so many of you to have heard her speak.
Next, I need to remind you of the time change tonight. “Spring forward one hour!” For example, if you go to bed at 10:00 tonight, you need to change any devices that do not change automatically to 11:oo. We “LOSE” an hour!
Wilford K. “Buddy” Sharkey, Jr.
January 25, 1957 – March 5, 2026
A retired St. Helena dairyman and resident of Amite, LA, passed away on Thursday, March 5, 2026 at his home surrounded by his family. He was born January 25, 1957 in Amite, LA and was 69 years of age. He is survived by his daughter, Meghan Sharkey Drago and husband, Joey; 2 granddaughters, Shaw and Demi; mother of their children and former spouse, Robin Brown Sharkey; housemates/nieces Sherry Fugler, Conner Fugler, and Melissa Macnicol; sister, Marvee Coxen; brother, R. C. “Chris” Davis and wife, Priscilla; and numerous nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by his son, Wilford K. “Trey” Sharkey, III; parents, Wilford Knighten Sharkey, Sr. and Doris “Nell” McDaniel Sharkey; sister, Gladys Fugler and husband, Robbie. Pallbearers will be long time friends Alan Morgan, Kevin Newell, Mickey Williams, Marshall Cutrer, Jeff Jones, and Billy Finch with Honorary Pallbearer Charles Sharkey.
Above of all things, he was a dedicated father but even prouder grandfather to Shaw and Demi. His favorite pastime was teasing and playing pranks on those he loved for a good laugh. Nothing brought him more joy than making his friends and loved ones laugh. We will miss his jokes, quick wit, and his ‘historian’ accounts of ‘all things Hillsdale’. We are forever grateful for his humility, determination, optimism, and grit for fighting to give us as much time as we had with him. Until we meet again.
Visitation at McKneely Funeral Home, Amite, from 11:00AM until Funeral Services at 1:00PM on Tuesday, March 10, 2026. Interment Woodland Cemetery, Kentwood, LA. For an online guestbook, visit http://www.mckneelys.com

Here we are at the last day of this week. I trust you had a good week and plan to do something special like attend the WMU meeting this morning or maybe a day with no plans at all, just waiting to see what will happen.
Stateside!
I want to start off thanking you for praying for our friends who were caught in the Middle East during a very difficult week. They made it back to the States. They are appreciative of all the prayers for them and know the importance of your prayers concerning their safety this week.
Continue to pray for the Middle East. Pray for all the visitors to the area and outsiders whose jobs took them there to be safe until they can get home.
For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

Sunday School Lesson
“Real Devotion”
Jesus rejects superficial religions
Matthew 15
Serving God!
Do you have a favorite Easter hymn?
I do! “Christ Arose”
If you learned this hymn as a child, like I did, you may remember learning (1) the meaning of the hymn and (2) the chorus that sounded like “a competition of between the voices of men and women”.
I’m proud to say I still enjoy the music, the wording, and the meaning of “Christ Arose”! I know I am not the only one.I think it is a greatly appropriated hymn for our churches any week of the year! Maybe the specialness of the song is emphasized by having to wait fifty-two weeks to hear it again, but it always being included!
Use the reference section of your Bible to find three passages about “Blessings”.
Update Your Prayer Journal Today and “Put Feet to Your Prayers” as Needed!
Who is in the hospital now?
What families have babies coming soon?
What students need an encouraging word?
Consider giving someone a ride to and from services?
What elderly widows need assistance in the with chores like cutting grass, changing light bulbs, repairing a broken lock, picking up some fallen branches, pulling a few weeds, etc.
There are many things each of us can do to help others!
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

There are a number of people who are having or have recently had surgery. I think there are more surgeries now than in previous years. I suppose there are more optional surgeries in that number.
Hopefully, the cold and flue season is being left behind for most people, but some people still manage to have these problems all year long. Pray for healthy days for everyone.

Additional Scripture Reading
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:18-20 NIV
(New International Version)
This thought was shared by Jesus to his apostles. It was fitting for them and is still fitting for us today!
If you have not previously memorized this Scripture, today is a good day to begin that process. I memorized it as written in the King James Version of the Bible which is most familiar to many people. You may want to do the same.
“Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.”
Matthew 28:5-6
Here we are in March. It is “marching on”. I am enjoying the warmer weather and looking forward to being able to get the plants out of the greenhouse. I will do that soon. Warmer, not hot, weather and Easter on its way. New leaves on some trees. Flower bulbs showing their finest colors, etc. This is my favorite season of the year!
Thankfulness
I am thankful for being able to spend more time outside and enjoying all of nature that God has provided. Which bird(s) do you look forward to seeing? Which plants are you anxious to see? What is your favorite color of spring? I’m so thankful God did more than provide us a black-and-white world!
I’m thankful for you! I’m glad you checked in today.

imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory
in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and
ever! Amen.”
We will be learning about one mission opportunity in our local area when we meet Saturday at the WMU meeting at Montpelier. Come see how “we” as churches and “we”, as individuals, can help others through some difficulties in life.

I want to thank you for praying for my friends who have been in Israel on vacation. They are now safer in Egypt. I look forward to hearing they are safely stateside.
I told a couple people who knew them, but wanted to tell Andy too. We had lots of mutual friends before we moved to Kentwood.
Thank you for praying for them and others who were also trapped in warfare. Please continue to pray for many others who found themselves suddenly in a danger zone.
God has blessed us to see another day, but not necessarily to live through this day. Psalm 118 is a chapter is gratitude, thanking God.
“This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it”
-Psalm 118:24-
I try to do something each day to make each day count. Some days are more productive than other days. Unfortunately, some days, I have to wonder where the day went without seeing a lot of productivity. I always know God has blessed me and am thankful for his love and watchcare.

Anthony Lee Taylor
May 6, 1952 – February 24, 2026
Anthony Lee Taylor, 73 of Osyka, MS passed away Tuesday, February 24, 2026, at his residence in Osyka, MS. He was born Tuesday, May 6, 1952.

Anthony was a man whose life was filled with faith, music, and the simple joys that brought people together. He loved singing gospel music and could often be found playing his guitars, sharing songs that lifted spirits and touched hearts. Whether at home, at church, or among friends, music was one of his greatest gifts.
He was devoted member and deacon at First Baptist Church Kentwood. His faith was the foundation of his life and guided the way he loved and cared for others.
He also dedicated himself to his community through his work with the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office, serving with integrity and commitment. Outside of work and church, he found joy on the golf course and peace out on the water, fishing whenever he had the chance.
He will be remembered for his strong faith, servant’s heart, love of music, and the warmth he shared so freely with everyone around him.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Rita Nixon King; son, Ricky Mapes; daughter, Ronda Mapes; brother, Hal King; sisters, Cindy Jubin and Penny Wroten (Mike).
Survivors include his wife, Betty Taylor; son, Thomas Mapes Jr.; daughters, Pennie Mapes, Becky Alexander (Mickey) and Melissa Tate (Leo); grandsons, Micah Tolar (Bridgett), Tyler Alexander (Allye), Preston Alexander, Ryan Tate and James Fuller Jr.; granddaughters, Autumn Carty (Rashaad), Mekenna Tate and Christina Fuller; great grandsons, Jeremiah Tolar, Maddox Tate and Colton Alexander; great granddaughters, Rae Tolar, Austyn Tolar and Palmer Carty.
The family would like to thank Deaconess Home Health and Hospice for all their help and care.
David and I first met Andy when he was a teenager and involved in a singing group at Southeastern. He both sang and preached for our youth revival. We’ve pretty well kept up with him since that time. He was a dear friend. We’ll never forget him or his sweet spirit and beautiful voice. He even voluntarily sang for us a couple weeks ago, a good day for him, when we visited. What a great memory!
