A Good Word From Sharon Farrugia

SHARED BY PERMISSION:

"I found some old notes this morning, one to myself, "Never start a ministry unless you have become that ministry." In other words, don't throw towels at people, Sharon and tell them to serve unless you already are doing that! Don't try to start a food ministry unless you have observed those around you and are already feeding them and helping them from your own resources. On and on it goes...if we are not willing to be that ministry in our own life and demonstrate it to others we cannot expect others to be it for us just because we had a good idea."

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
