Thank God for Abraham!

We did have a good class last weekend. A couple of folks were sick and we have been praying for them to get to feeling better, but our study encouraged me as I hope it did for everyone who was there.

Be praying for:
- Parents who are having health issues; David's dad, Suzanne's mother, Terry and Mary's fathers, Spence's mom, my dad and mom
- Francis' brother and his dairy farm in southern MS
- Outreach efforts throughout the week
- Terry has been sick
- Tammy was sick Sunday, too
- Church families
- Families who have been visiting the church
- Financial needs. . .lots of folks going through some tough times right now and this affects the church, too
- Missionaries during this time of the holidays
- The Lord to work in our hearts and through our lives to touch others
- Always be in prayer for pastors and church workers and show them how much you do care about them and are thankful for them during these holidays. God has blessed us through their lives.
- I am trying to line up summer missionary work for us. Pray with me about this.
- Always be praying for our youth as well. . .many temptations and decisions they are making

Special thanks to Mrs. Francis who has been bringing our treats and providing our coffee each week.

Next week (NO CLASS THIS WEEK) our study will be from the life of Isaac, Abraham's son. We may even get into Jacob's life and testimony a little bit, too. I hope that your holiday season is blessed and that God gives you opportunities to testify of His working in your life. Ain't it exciting to be able to witness for Him!!

Sunday we are going to have church at 10:30 in the morning. Our Harvest Sunday is a great time to invite guests. Also don't forget that we will be having a dinner afterward. Bring some dishes to help feed the crowd. Save your best pie recipe for the next Sunday night PIE COMPETITION. Our judges are probably going to be hungry. :-)

Have a wonderful week serving the Lord! Keep in touch!
