  1. And our son is now here! He arrived at 5:30 Sunday morning (drove all night so he could beat our 5 day/4 night record).

    He's staying with us a few days, and putting out applications. Then he'll stay with my sister, who is closer to where he needs to be to get a job. If you think about it, would appreciate prayer that he finds good work.

  2. Final testing of the school year...in a couple of hours, my niece will be a senior! Summer break looms ~ Yeehaw!

  3. God is good. All the time.

     

  4. Hubs is teaching Sunday School and preaching in the main service today. I'm excited. We are also singing...not quite as excited. =D

      God has blessed both of you and I am sure the church also.

      Things went great. I was privileged to lead a young lady to the Lord today. We've been praying for her for a while, and I've dealt with her two other times. This morning, she came to church ready to be saved! AMEN!

  5. JON IS AWAKE!!! AMEN and PRAISE the LORD!  I posted the most recent video in "A friend's son" prayer request. THANK YOU for praying. Please continue.

  6. Our beef went to the butcher this past Saturday. We are rather excited about getting it and having some goooood meat. Just in time for the grilling season =D

  7. Please pray for our blitz on Saturday. We don't have a lot of people, so won't be able to cover a lot of territory, but praise the Lord we have 6 teams going out. We have 400 brochures. Please pray that people will come out. Thanks.

      I'm curious....how did it go?

      @BroMatt - I had written the following, but guess I never hit enter...

      It rained this morning. We were concerned that maybe folks wouldn't come out. But they did! We had 6 teams (2 of them had 3 people). We were able to pass out almost 375 fliers. We would have done all 400 but one of the drivers (my mom - oops!) brought the ones she had left home with her. We were able to cover more territory than we expected. The goal of the blitz was to just get the fliers put on the doors (or in the paper boxes). There were a few people that were out and about and so were talked to. There seemed to be a little bit of interest. We'll see tomorrow.

      We met a woman Wednesday who asked if we have a Sunday School. My hubs told her we don't because we don't have kids, but that I'm ready every week just in case. So she said she'd be bringing her 9 year old granddaughter tomorrow. We've been praying that she will.

      We're having a Mexican fiesta for our meal tomorrow. The manager of one of the Mexican restaurants in town is a Christian. He donated chips and beans for tomorrow. And he said today that he'd see us tomorrow. We are sure hoping/praying he does come. 

      Lots of excitement about tomorrow in our house this evening.

      (We didn't get any visitors out from the blitz. But that's ok - we got our name out there again.)

      I hit the wrong button. Don't know how I got this on here. Anyway - I had to think about what happened on July 2 of last year. =D

  9. Were you in OK during the winter of '78? I was a senior in high school living in Norman. THAT was an icy winter!

      No.  My wife and I moved here from San Diego in 1993,  I am retired from the Marine Corps (medically).  I went to BBC Springfield, Mo. 1980-1983  Thanks for asking.  Hard to believe Oklahoma ever had a winter.  lol January and February this year are like 60 to 80 every day.

      I know - usually really nice winters. But that year! Shudder!  Thanks for your service, BTW. 

  10. Would appreciate prayer. I'm quite ill. I think it's a bug - fever, dizziness, chills, stomach ick. I want to be well just in case the newlyweds pop over to our church this Sunday.

      No, but at least one said they had a lot to think about.

      AMEN x 2!!!! There are far too many "victims" in this country, and far too few people willing to take responsibility for their own actions.
