Tillatoba News

Here we are in the first week of October. It seems like for the past year time is flying by and just last week we were welcoming the month of September.
Don’t forget October 14 there will be games, hayride, cakewalk, chili cook off and much more! Join us for a evening of faith, fun and fellowship at Tillatoba Baptist Church from 4 to 6 p.m. The Hayride at six will end the festivities.
The family of Audrey Ross would like for you to join them in celebrating her 100th birthday on Saturday, October 14 from 2-4 pm at the Oakland Presbyterian Church. Your presence would be the perfect gift.
David, my better half, got a call from his brother, Willie Deck of Glen Allen, Mo. telling him that he ran over a bear as he was leaving his driveway for work. He said there was blood everywhere but they couldn’t find the bear.
Diane Dukes has been sick with a respiratory infection and asthma. Three bottles of medicine and cough syrup – that should get you to feeling better. Her sister, Ellen Parker, and her niece, Vickie Lynn Parker, from Greenville came and stayed three days with Diane. They all had a good time. She said, “I hope I was good company for them.”
Diane and daughter, Terri Dukes went Saturday to Monticello, Ark. to buy things to go in her yard to decorate for Halloween and fall. She said the decor will be pumpkins and whatever else she decides to use!
Martha Box said, “Friend you know my best news is old news.” “God created my world and my place in it and I am so grateful!”
Martha received a reminder about LIFE the other day. While enjoying the fall colors and the cotton being picked, she was nearly killed! A car going at least 120 miles per hour shook her car as it came within inches of her!
“All I could say was Lord I guess You have one more thing You want me to do!,” Martha said.
Martha also reported that the revival at Willow Springs Assembly of God was great – feeding her heart and soul each night with great preaching and leading from scriptures and Holy Spirit!
Martha said she was wore out from chasing a bird throughout her house one day last week. As she opened the door to pledge allegiance and say Thank You LORD, a swallow flew in her den and she tried to catch it from 7a.m. to 3 p.m. Even her two great nephews and her brother tried. She figures the bird got out at 3 p.m. or it is dead somewhere.
“IT AIN’T EASY BEING ME,” says Martha!
I talked to my friend, Peggy Bailey, Monday morning and she was all excited. Her husband Eugene, is coming home from the hospital Tuesday. Peggy’s daughters, Pam and Jennifer, and son, Erik, had been grocery shopping for Peggy Saturday.
Happy birthday to Summer Procella on the 3rd; Laura Moorman and Billy Wayne Anderson share a birthday the 5th; my great nephew, Taylor Hames celebrates on the 7th; Brent Anderson on the 9th; a sweet special lady, Audrey Ross, Ann Ragon, my great niece, Gracie Beardain and my great nephew,
Bo Bickerstaff celebrate on the 10th; Jacque Chambers and Billy Jack Williamson share a birthday on the 11th; and Sheila O’Bryant the 12th. I pray you all have a great birthday!
Thought for the day…Don’t waste words on people who deserve your silence. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can say is nothing at all.
