Lokomotion Social - 3.29.08

A group of us ended up attending the social at Lokomation on Saturday. We had a great time, even though it was a dreary day outside. Here is a group picture after a game of mini golf. There was some major competition on the golf course, go-carts, and of course laser tag. We had a great fellowship there, and then had dinner at Chick-Fil-A.

Prayer Request - Wingards

Yesterday, Kelly's hometown, Booneville, AR, suffered a great loss. The Cargill factory there caught on fire. The factory is a total loss for the town. Not only was there a fire, but one of the amomnia tanks blew up sending a cloud of gas across several miles. Her younger sister, Erin, lives only a 100 yards from this plant. She, thank goodness, was on her way to North Carolina to be with Kris who is finally having his back surgery, or else it could have been very bad as she would not have been able to leave her house. She will be gone for two weeks and is concerned about her house and pets. No one is allowed over there yet, but Kelly's parents will be the ones to have to call Erin and give her the news as to whether or not she will be allowed to come back to her house. Kelly's uncle, who is a firefighter, told her parents that it is a very real possibility that Erin's house and a few more in the area may be condemned due to the gas. Not that Erin is materialistic, but all of her and Kris's belongings, including memories and keepsakes are in that house. Please pray for her and Kris and that their house is okay. Pray for all of the families in Booneville who are now without work. Kelly had many friends and family members who have lost their jobs. This was the last large employer in Booneville. The town is in shock.

Prayer Requests - 3.16.08

Flynts: Misty is leaving on Friday for NC to visit a friend who is about to have a baby. Please pray for her friend, as she nears her due date. Also, please remember Chris and Carter during this time, as she will be gone for a week.

Jones: Thomas' sister-in-law was taken to the ER on Sat. night with hives. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.


Readers: Brent's mom seems withdrawn from them. She won't come to church or celebrate Easter with them. Pray for her salvation, and for peace in their family.

Pray for all those that will be traveling over Spring Break and Easter.

Goodbye Tylers!

This is from our luncheon that we had for the Tylers. As you can see we have a massive class, and still growing! We are going to miss you Brian and Carey! Please keep in touch. I know it is kind of small, but you get the idea...there are a lot of us.
