Wednesday Night Bible Study


Well, I think I can say this: the discussion was lively and beneficial! Now, that is my opinion, so you might want to check with the others who were present; I will even provide you with their names--Rose Olsen, Bobby Olsen, Eddie & Carolyn Dailey, JC Lewis, Syd Kiser and her sister, Marie Smith, Bonnie Coleman, Karen Purnhagen, John Akacki, and Rhonda Ennis. Don't be bashful, as I feel sure they will be happy to provide you with any details you might desire.

Hopefully, as we follow the present plan of using my weekly sermons as fodder for the Wednesday night discussions, they will continue to be lively and stimulating, so much so, that others will want to participate. I guess this does mean that I will have to manage to provide sermons that tend to breed both discussion and debate, which will be a challenge for me, as most of you know.

I visited with Joanie today and SHE IS HURTING! I am sure the present pain is normal at this point, but I am also sure that she wants it to be short-lived. Please keep her in your prayers and stop by to see her, as she will be hospitalized until Saturday or Sunday.

Anyhow, I hope that His life has manifested itself through you in a beautiful way today; after all, He has given you (and me) the incredible gift of "the more abundant life."

Mac,
Now that we know you're taking roll and publishing the results for all the world to see, I suppose we'll be compelled to attend Wed. night bible study. We actually had every intention of being there but had to take care of business at the house site (I'm not sure how that fits in the providence of God), but I'm really sorry we missed the lively discussion. We hope to see you all on Sunday. May you have ears to hear and clear vision to see all that God would have you impart to us. We look forward to receiving a five course meal. All our love, Dudley (even though he is snoring beside me) and Debbie
