OCTOBER NEWSLETTER

It seems like every month this is a health update column, but that’s ok. There are those who receive this who want to hear the updates. We are still in a wait and see mode with my prostate, so I decided that while I was waiting I might as well get my carpal tunnel fixed, so I did. The stitches are out now and things are looking good, the pain is gone and as soon as the soreness is gone everything will be good. I am still working on losing weight, so far...drum roll please...30 pounds!!! I am well on my way to being a smaller version of myself. Becky is still doing good, still doing her treatments at home. We will be going to Denver this month for her 6 month checkup.
Hey we have something exciting coming up called “Breaking The Barrier”. This will take place in November, watch for all of the details.
This is for all of the men, we need to get rid of the old slab on the North side of the church. Brotherhood will meet out here on Saturday, October 10 at 9 am to break it up and drop it in the pit. We will have some heavy equipment to help with the heavy work, but we still need you to help. Come on guys, let’s ALL come out to work at God’s house. Who knows, maybe the ladies will come and cook us some lunch, you just never know.
I hope that you will attend the Red Fork Annual Meeting, it is in Quanah this year. The early session is at 4:00 pm, supper is at 5:30 pm and the Evening session is at 6:15 pm. This is always great and I hope the you will make an effort to attend.
I haven't said much about the Namibia Mission Effort lately, but I want to remind you to be in prayer for the Mbalantu people. We need to be raising more money for mission trips, and I need you to be praying about going to Namibia Africa to tell these people about Jesus. There will be 4 trips in 2010; Feb. 2-12, June 7-18, Aug. 2-13 & Nov. 1-12.
Please pray about going, raising more money for those who will go, for those who do go and for the Mbalantu tribe.
