Thanksgiving for things past, present, and future!

As you might have guessed, this note is all about thanksgiving for things that have happened, that are happening, and that will happen very soon!

Past:
Last week at Junior Week at CYE 11 children were baptized into Christ!  If that doesn't get you excited, I don't know what will.  Be praying for these children as well as two of our own, Cameron and Madison Strother, as they are in the beginning stages of their walk with Christ.  Their journey has just begun!

Present:
It was great to have Garrah Peters with us Sunday, just a few days after having stints put in to open up a collapsed vein.  We are grateful that she is feeling better than she has in months, and pray that she will continue to recover quickly!  We also want to keep praying for others among us like Marie Cook and George Johnson, who continue to battle health problems.  We hope that they will be feeling better real soon!

Not-so-distant future:
In just a few weeks, we will be kicking off our VBS.  Be praying for Sonny Childs and his MAP team as they prepare to come down for the week.  That Sunday, July 17th, we will be having a potluck after morning worship to get things started off on the right foot, because everyone is happy when their plate is full.  The church will be providing the meat so bring your favorite side, some friends, and an empty stomach!

  1. And I almost forgot, continue to pray for Justin Fuller's leg. It's going to take a few months of healing and therapy before he is back to 100%. He can't even play volleyball, which if you know Justin, you know that means it is one serious injury.
