Happy Fourth of July!

Since we did not have our ABF time this past Sunday this update will be shorter than normal. However, I did want to get something out to remind everyone of the prayer items and a few special dates.

Prayer Requests:

  • Continue to pray for Jerry S. He is home but still needs prayer for continued improvement. Pray for his caregiver, Clara, too!
  • Judy R. will be going to visit Tom and Susie soon with her son, Steve. Pray for their travel and time there.
  • Keith and Maxine’s son, Caleb, is considering continuing his education to get his ThM degree. This will take two more years. He want’s clear leading of the Holy Spirit and a peace about this decision.
  • Will D’s Daugher, Tabby, is having problems in her pregnancy and needs prayer. She may be scheduled for a C-Section, soon.
  • Bob and Diane S’s son-in-law’s mother died suddenly. Pray for Brian and Emily as they travel and for their loss. His mother probably was not a Christian.
  • Sandy and John are completing their ministry with Christian Schools this week and will return home for a few days. Pray for their safety as they travel. We all look forward to seeing these strangers again.

July 1st at WHBC:

What a fantastic day we had in church this past Sunday. If you missed any of this, you missed a real blessing. In the morning we had an excellent Patriotic Musical by the choir and several soloists and Pastor Kisner gave a short sermon continuing his discussion of Joshua 1 and the feet. Then we had the ground breaking in the parking lot. This gave a clear picture of the size of the building and it will be BIG. After the dirt throwing, pastor had everyone sign the area where the building will be built and include their favorite verse and even draw outlines of their feet.

Sunday evening we had a fantastic concert by Tim Zimmerman and the King s Brass. This lasted until almost 8PM and was a real treat. Our brass players (including class members Jim W and Mark A) also played a few numbers with the King s Brass. If you missed this or want more information about them and would like to hear a little of their music, follow this link to Kings Brass.

Birthdays:

  • Madlyn Hazen July 4
  • Clara Seevers July 5

Anniversary:

  • David and Carol Nims July 1
  • Lou and Ruthann Caldwell July 1

We will have or normal schedule again this coming Sunday, July 8th. Plan to join us.

Ambassadors Notes for the week of Dec. 9

Image
This past weekend was a great one. We all had a good time of fun and fellowship together Saturday evening as we gathered for our annual Christmas celebration. The food was way to plentiful and good! I know I am not the only one to over-eat! I think it was John who is the new owner of the golden goose! But this wasn’t the only weird gift to be won. Ask Rosalinda about her jeans! These photos were provided by Bob Lawson. Thank you Bob! Can you believe, I didn’t even bring a camera? Many thanks to Mark Averitt also; for arranging for the Community Center for our use. It was perfect for our needs. Sunday was also another good time together as a class. John and Sandy gave us a “ Long and Short of it ” showing of their trip to Israel. I thought their presentation was fascinating and well worthwhile. I will never forget Sandy’s description of the Hasidic men leaving the Wailing Wall and immediately taking out their cell phones. I don’t mean this was wrong in any way but it seemed to be a real...

Ambassadors ABF Notes for May 20th

Image
Naiya Symone Simpson This Sunday was a little different for us; two weeks in a row, now. Dennis is still under the weather with a chest cold or something giving him pain. Please pray for him. Last Sunday we were fortunate to have Larry Smith give us an update taking most of our class time. This week, we spent the majority of the time doing prayer requests and praying. I think these times are especially good and they are pleasing to our Lord. I know I personally get more out of a prayer time like this. Anyway, instead of our normal dog on pony show with myself, John, and Roger Brandt plus Dennis before you, everyone was stuck with the dog, ME! Visitor We had a long distance visitor with us this Sunday. His name is Charles. He is an ESOL Student of Barb Sullivan’s and comes all the way from North Central China. Be sure to greet him, next time. Smith Fund Report We collected funds to help the Smiths and their transition back to the US soil from their mission work in Nicaragua during the ...

Ambassadors Class Game Night (05/09/2008)

Image
Friday evening, May 9th, we had a game night in the church for our class. We all played table games and ate snack foods. I would have liked to see more in attendance but I know that this Mother’s day weekend may have posed problems for some. As you can see from the photos below, we played a variety of games. Good times for fellowship and discussion. But, someone must be the expert to explain the rules. Hmmm, looks like our lawyer is examining the evidence! Watch out! This one will hurt! Hey! Are you watching my moves?! Linda it going to make a move! The Thinker!
