Howdy,
Folks,
There’s so much to write about, I don’t know where to
start.
I
guess first off, I’ll give our leadership a “well done” on the way they handled
our sewer problem, and the paving and striping of our parking lot. So, guys,
“Well Done.’’
We
had a Church picnic at Truman and Tina’s home, and it was great. I think the
whole Church body showed up, including Peggy Sue and myself. Man, what vittles
and good fellowship.
We
hosted the 4-State Men’s meeting, and you guessed it, we had lots and lots of
pies. All I can say, is no wonder I am so fat. Ha Ha!
Our
Men’s fellowship had 68 men present and, yes, more food. Our own Reggie Thomas
had a super message on “Am I My Brother’s Keeper.”
Truman
has a new office now. If you get a chance, stop in and see it. The Deacons,
painted and fixed up his old office for Bob Heath and Jacob.
Things are really good at Villa Heights, seems like we
are pullin’ together like a family, “Praise God” Peggy Sue says things are
going well because the leadership spends as much time in prayer as it does on
the Church business. But she says we need to stay strong, because Satan is at
every corner, waiting to pounce. I guess I have said enough for now. Peggy Sue
said the more I write, I kinda go to preachin’ and that’s not the job of the
church mouse.
One
more thing. I was runnin’ in the Church office, and I almost broke my little
neck. It seems like the elders went and hired a number two “maintenance
engineer,” and he got those floors so slick, they look like new. He even washed
the windows! Can you believe it? They have never, and I mean never, been washed
in the church office.
Well,
Folks, that’s it for now. But before I go, there’s been some sadness. Alice
Sheffler is with the Lord now. Pray for Earl and the rest of the family. Also
Kim Laughlin lost his father. Please pray for Anna Macklin’s granddaughter,
also Brenda Buckner, the Christians being slaughtered, and the sinful way our
nation is living. Also for Truman, Justin, Bob Heath, Linda Scantlin, Jacob, our
leadership, all the greeters, teachers, and nursery workers. “And most of all”
remember Peggy Sue loves you and so do I.
Blessin’s,
Clarence
