By the time you read this note Carol and I will be headed out on the road for a few days of vacation. We are so very thankful for the time off that you have made available to us, and we look forward to the spiritual and physical recharge that such an opportunity affords.

As he has done so faithfully many times before, Rev. Jim Daughtry will be filling our pulpit in my absence this coming Sunday. Jim will be preaching a sermon from Proverbs 3:1-12 entitled, “A Father’s Wise Counsel.” I hope you will prepare your hearts for worship by reading this passage, and by praying fervently for Jim as he comes to preach the Word to us.
