Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Greetings. I hope and pray all is well with you and yours. It has now been 7 week since beginning this years mission. So far we've enjoyed the privilege of sharing the gospel in song with 24 Nursing Homes and 3 Churches. To God Be The Glory! Monday February 16 th ~ Published the update from the library here in Yoakum, Texas. And spent some time sitting with mom. Tuesday February 17 th ~ Drove to Gonzales, Texas and ministered at the "Texan Nursing & Rehab Center". One dear lady was obviously spiritually minded. At one point she asked if I was staying for lunch, and said "You can have mine". I started a round of antibiotics today, please pray for me. Wednesday February 18 th ~ Spent time sitting with mom and working on the computer. Thursday February 19 th ~ Joined some cousins singing at the "Stevens Health & Rehab Center" here in Yoakum. Friday February 20 th ~ Mom passed away today. Saturday February 21 st ~ A Day of Rest. Sunday February 22 nd ~ Attended worship services in Hallettsville with a bunch of cousins. Then in the afternoon, joined a group at the nursing home for some singing out of Hymnals. In the evening we held moms Visitation. A tradition in this part of the country where by folks gather (usually the day before the funeral) to visit and reminisce. I was encouraged and comforted by the large turnout.
And So Begins Another Week.
May The Lord Our God Guard, Guide And Direct You. In The Name Of Jesus. Amen!
