This weekend has been very busy. On Saturday we had a meal for our C.A.R.E. teams. During that meal, I did a Powerpoint presentation about our C.A.R.E. ministry. We had a great time in the Lord. For some reason, I love being with the Lord’s people. They are just all kinds of fun.

Yesterday was fifth Sunday. Thus, we observed the Lord’s Supper in our AM service. That is always a special time for me, and for many in our church. We had an unusually large number of visitors yesterday. I wonder where they came from? I am glad they did. Maybe they will come back. Last night the Hayes Family was with us. We gave them the entire worship service. I enjoyed their ministry, but missed preaching. Singings are OK, but not something I would dod on a regular basis. Once a year? Maybe! Of course, I have been at Calvary for 5.5 years and this is the first one we have had. That tell you anything?

I will begin a tent meeting tonight in Vilas, NC, which is located above Boone. Pray for the meeting and pray for my allergies. It should be a fun week, but a hard one at the same time. The meeting is sponsored by Willowdale Baptist Church in Vilas. The Pastor is Brother Eugene Braswell.

I am going to a funeral today at 1:00 PM. Brother Jimmy Lambert went home to glory on Friday evening. Brother Lambert was 99 years old. He preached for us at Calvary just a few weeks ago. He seemed to be in good health at the time, but I guess it doesn’t take a lot to undermine everything when you are that age. Brother Jimmy had a great ministry in our area and he was a blessing. Pray for his family.

Our oldest child, Nikki, turns 27 today. Man that’s old! Have a Happy Birthday baby girl. I love you and I am proud of the Christian, woman, mother, wife, friend, child, you have become. Have a great day.
