Thanks Patrick for the wonderful message of the Cross this morning! And thanks Mark for the beautiful songs...lots of good ol' hymns!
AND....how AWESOME was it, to get to SEE Brent & Jill Nichols, via SKYPE! I love technology!
On a personal note...in Patrick's class, on Sunday mornings, we have been studying Spiritual Warfare. It's VERY interesting.
This next Sunday is Easter. Patrick reminded us that this will be the ONLY church service that some people attend ALL YEAR LONG! So, take this opportunity to invite a friend or relative or LOTS of them to come with you!
PRAISE: Kristi Garrett came back home to Texas yesterday! She did say that she left her heart in Alaska though. Curtis flew out yesterday and will be up there at least a week. I got a message from Curtis that said that the Dr. was in with Landon at the time, he was treating his muscle strength and is VERY optismistic about his progress. Continue to pray specifically for the fine motor skills with his hands and feet, and for total healing! Please keep Curtis and Kristi in your prayers as they are traveling so much and leaving their "baby" so far away.
John Williams asked that we continue to remember his brother James Williams and their family. James' 2 year old son, Emmitt, has cancer. They are in Cincinnati receiving treatment. James is running out of paid leave. He's going to have to come back to work to keep his insurance going. His wife will remain in Cincinnati with Emmitt.
Cynthia Williams' dad, Lanny Riggs, will have a heart procedure on Monday that could shut his kidneys down completely. He will get stints or possibly open heart surgery. Kidneys are the biggest concern.
Jill Faires asked that we remember the LTC participants and attendees for safe travel and an uplifting time at the convention. May it be a blessing for everyone involved.
Continue to remember the Hanley family as they mourn the death of their uncle, Weldon Locke.
PRAISE: Marolyn Woodall is thankful for prayers for the safe trip that Bruce, Dale & the girls, made to Thailand.
PRAISE: Peggy Robinson's friend, Gary Callaway, had stints placed in an artery of his heart this past Thursday. He is doing great. She said they can already tell a HUGE difference.
Mark Barnett asked for continued prayers for his young friend, Ty Van Meter. He broke his pelvis 2 years ago. Please pray specifically for bone growth.
Mark also asked for prayers for his friends, Alan & Joni Chilcoat, that doors will open for a good job and that Joni's health to improve.
Janet Christ asked for prayers for their nephew, Joshua Christ, that he heals from the burns he received in an accident, without scars.
Laura Janes will have a heart cath this Thursday and other medical decisions that are having to be made.
Reggie McDowra son and Becky Webb's grandson, Nick McDowra, was traveling from Ft. Leonardwood, to Ft. Hood and had a car accident. He's ok, just scared the folks at home.
Christine Mashburn, Anna Zant's Mom, will have to have her hip surgery all over again. Please keep this precious little woman in your prayers.
Debra Usry asked for prayers for her friend, Ron Brothers, and his health.
Debra also said that this Thursday will be the 1st group meeting for grandson Lucas. They will get to go see him!
Phyllis Giguere is having to make several health decisions right now. She's working toward having back surgery.
Dinah Border asked that we remember her granddaughter, Malorie Whitaker, this time last week we were praying for her, as she had been rear-ended in a car accident on her way back to TSU. At the time, the Dr. didn't think she was hurt.
This is a message from Dinah: "Better Xrays & Drs revealed fractured C6 in her neck & L5 in low back. Mottling on her back may indicate internal damage to organs, not getting enough blood. She has been fitted with a neck brace & had MRIs done on Thursday. What we had hoped was soreness is more. Continued prayers, please."
Tammy Huffman has these requests today: Sam Warren, her step-dad, just finished 2nd round of chemo. Her Mom, Linda Warren, recovering from foot surgery. Her husband, Robert Huffman, is in need of a job. Her aunt, Thelma Welch, is 84 years old, is in the hospital in Sherman not doing well. Also, keep Tammy on your heart, as the care-giver.
Dee Lyons has these prayer requests: Her son, Jeremy Ray, that he find his way back to God and gets a job. Also, Dee is thankful for improvement in her health. She is ready and needs to get back to work.
Diane McFadden asked for prayers for her nephew, Darren Ausmus. He's only 35 years old and has had triple by-pass heart surgery. She also asked for prayers for her Mom, Lillian Welch, she has pneumonia.
CHANGE FOR CHILDREN: KFC is collecting change for Boles & Medina Children's Homes with the can drive. You can pick up a can at the Welcome Center or ask Tanya for one.
ANNUAL DIAPER DRIVE: KFC is also helping Lubbock Children's Home by collecting size 2 & 3 Pull-Ups.
KIDDIE KOLLEGE ENROLLMENT: Began March 23rd for the Fall Semester. See Tammy Benedick for questions.
DON'T FORGET to bring your food this Wednesday night for the LTC group. This keeps them from having to buy food at the hotel (which is VERY expensive) and also keeps them from having to leave the hotel. Thanks in advance for your help on this.
