Rise and Shine

Our Summer Series continues this Wednesday evening with Dewey Howard from the Green Lawn church of Christ. Dewey has been the Education Minister at Green Lawn for several years and has done and continues to do outstanding work for them. I look forward to hearing him speak.

WHEN GOD SPEAKS

Some years ago, as I conducted a Bible drill with some children, a little boy looked up at me and asked, “Are you God?” Very humbled, I assured him I was not, but that I was speaking the Word of God because it was from His book, the Bible. And then I told him and all the children that even when the preacher speaks, we should listen carefully and then examine the scriptures daily to see if what we heard is so, like the Bereans did in Acts 17:11.

Thank You

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness, as well as the love and care that we felt and tasted in the wonderful meal you prepared for us.
Margie & Retha Watson and the entire
Rickey Watson family

We all know what a great job Theodore does in cleaning the building! A biggg thanks is also due to Theodore for mowing the grounds around the building and weedeating around the parking lot. AND to Manasas Gauna who came on Monday and finished mowing the vacant lot west of the parking lot and the ditch north of the building. It really looks great!!! Thank you guys SO MUCH!!!

Dear Parkway family, It was an extremely rich blessing to spend so much time with many of you as we went to Austin. Friendships and bonds were created that will last a lifetime and then on into eternity. Thank you for letting me hitch a ride with you. Thank you to our fearless drivers, Kelvin and Bobby. You two are awesome. I want to say a special thanks to two young men who have helped me see a new definition of servant, Tyrone (Christopher) and David (Barnes). You guys are tops and I am so blessed to know you. Thank you for all the lugging of luggage, smiles, hugs and encouragement you gave so freely. Thanks to Sue and Tim for inviting me to their car and driving around Austin. God is so good to us and He has blessed me more abundantly than I can imagine with this trip. I love you all and cherish the memories made. WIth you in God’s hands, Melody

A biggg thanks to Bobbie Adams, Opal & Debra George who helped in the kitchen in preparation for the dinner for the Watson family. They were joined after the funeral by James & Janice Whitehead, Gene & Nell Dycus & Dexter & Cleeta Carley who also helped in the kitchen cleanup. Thank you to James & Janice Whitehead who picked up meat and other supplies from Sam’s; to Gene & Nell Dycus who picked up the chicken from United (it was ordered on Friday but it was not ready at 3 p.m. Saturday--so Gene & Nell had to wait on it). Thank you to all of these and others who have helped at other times. And thanks to those who provided tossed salads and desserts. You can always be counted on. --Doris
