The Community Backpack Blessing will be Sunday, July 27, at Tillatoba Baptist Church. Bring your backpack to the 11 a.m. Sunday service, and it will be prayed over to encourage youth as they start a new school year. This is open to anyone in the community; you do not have to be a member to participate.
Diane Dukes reported Bible school started Sunday and there were about 38 kids present. Everyone had a good time. The little and big kids were so excited.
“Let’s keep praying for the kids, parents, helpers, and the church overall,” said Nancy Rose.
Deborah McCool says nothing much is going on up her way. Her daughter, Angela, gave them a little scare as she had to go to the emergency room.
“Thank God she is okay, but still going to get double-checked with her heart doctor next week,” Deborah said.
Tommy and his son-in-law, Jason Beavers, went to son Christopher’s Saturday afternoon to help him hang a big wooden swing bed on their front porch. Tommy said he supervised while Jason and Christopher did the work. Samantha was very happy with their work.
Wow, it’s SUNDAY again, said Martha Box!
“And what a day it is. With a whole lot on my mind, I still made it to church. And what a special encouragement it was. Soul-touching songs and message! Bro. Scarborough so thoroughly taught us about GOD! The Creator, the Leader, the Provider, the GOD ALMIGHTY! A message we all needed, young and old!” Martha said. “But no real news, I’m still working on me. I had a great lunch out at the Ole Corner Store with my brother, Jesse – great food and great company.”
Joey and Katelyn McClanahan visited Bobby Joe McClanahan and other relatives for the July Fourth weekend. Breanna McClanahan visited Freddie Wayne and Jojo McClanahan on Saturday.
David and I had an enjoyable Sunday afternoon with my daughter, Donna Garripoli, and granddaughter, Francesca, along with Brad and Bradley Holliday—all of Grenada! Donna and I ate watermelon for lunch and it was good and sweet—just like I like them!
Congratulations to Brother Mike Ramage on his retirement from preaching, but as they say, a pastor never retires completely. I pray you and Miss Patti will enjoy your retirement, and now you can visit your little granddaughter more often.
Lynn Marceleno reported that we had three train derailments in one weekend in Mississippi. Sounds kinda strange to me.
Happy birthday to Gary Waller on the 7th; my sweet schoolmate, Donnie Toole, celebrates on the 9th, as do Jason Beavers and Ronlyn Jarrell; Melanie Stevens on the 10th; Ruth Jane Hailey and the Coffeeville Courier on the 11th; LaJuanda Williams on the 12th; and Jackie Bowman on the 13th. May you all have a blessed birthday!
