A wonderful day began with a sound check at 8:30 and just ended. The people of First Baptist may be fewer than in past years but they are sweet, gracious and receptive. It was several years ago when the church ran over 600 in Sunday School and then International Paper closed down. This took many professional jobs as well as workers. Many, being young couples, moved on to find other work and now the church is running a fraction of that number but they are very dedicated and striving to find new ways to grow and reach the community.
The morning service included one of my friends early then I played my horn for the offertory and sung for the “special”
Tonight’s banquet was well attended and fun as the Church Lady and the Professor showed up.
Tomorrow we will go to the Senior Adult Luncheon tomorrow and speak followed by a trip to Yazoo City to check in on parents. We sure appreciate the prayers as we continue our schedule and try to attend to parents.

Blessings,
John
