A long day, but blessed and favored

Today was another one of those long days filled with multiple opportunities to minister and interact with the wonderful people in Tennessee.

Debra and I were up and out early this morning, and as of 11:10 p.m., I just returned home and Debra is on her way from the office. We met with ministers and I was blessed to visit with three of our pastors. Debra visited with Donna Barrett at Centennial Hospital while I traveled much of Middle Tennessee taking care of business for the State.

As I conclude my day, my mind has gone to all of those who read our blog, and who we interact with on Facebook, by email and by the phone. We are blessed of the Lord to work among such wonderful people, and feel favored of the Lord to have good health and plenty of energy.

I often wondered how Bishop Eugene Weakley and Sister Weakley kept up with everything going on, and the truth is that we are never really caught up. But we have been favored to have such rich relationships and have the opportunity to give our lives for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and for ministry in the Church of God of Prophecy.

We love the people of this State deeply and want you to know it.

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
