Weekend travels...

Good morning.

Just wanted to give you a quick update on events happening over this past weekend. Debra and I were in Cleveland over the weekend to attend the funeral of Carol Howell, a member at the Keith Street church. She was obviously a real blessing to everyone around her, and we were happy to know her. There was a large crowd at the funeral, and according to Dan, the visitation was very large on Friday night.

On Sunday we attended church with our son Shaun, and his family Stephanie, and our number one grandchild Reagan. As always we were blessed to be with them, but also the opportunity for me to attend church and not preach was a much needed rest. Pastor Tim Coalter preached a wonderful message, and the service was concluded with a "healing" line.

On Sunday evening, we were blessed to attend, and I ministered during the District (Cleveland/Chattanooga area) ministers meeting. The service was hosted by the Hickory Valley church. Pastor Duke Stone and the congregation there extended a warm welcome to all, and we were happy to see our churches represented well.

After service, we made the trip home, and got in late. We are working in Hendersonville today, but leaving out tomorrow morning for Huntingdon, where I will be participating in the funeral services for Bishop J.C. Palmer.

We appreciate all of the wonderful people of Tennessee and the warm welcome they always extend to us.

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He...

Prayer Request

Yesterday and today have been filled with non-stop preparations and meetings for the General Assembly. The State/National Overseers will be traveling to begin meeting this week in Nashville. Will you please join me in prayer for travel mercies for all of those on their way to Nashville? Also, Sister Wilma Massengale is still in Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville. This precious lady and her family need our prayer support, and I hope you will join me in prayer for them, believing the Lord is able to meet their need.

Death Notice - Clara McMahan

I AM SHARING A NOTICE I JUST RECEIVED FROM PASTOR TERRY BARNWELL (KNOXVILLE- ARROWHEAD) Hi Brother; I pray your day is going along well. I wanted to let you know of the passing of Sister Clara McMahan this morning. Her husband Claude has served as deacon for over 52 years at the Arrowhead church. This wonderful lady has touched thousands of lives across Tennessee. She is the sister of Charlie Weaver. The day you and Sister McKinley were with us on the Home Coming Sunday if you remember the youth presented this couple with a light house they had built for them. Sister Clara will be greatly missed greatly. I will let you know the arrangements when I get them if you wished to attend the services. If your schedule will not permit I understand, but I just wanted you to know. Love you and have a blessed day; Bro. Terry
