Helena 2012 Wk 2 Sunday
Today is the Sabbath and we enjoyed a morning of
worship. Prior to leaving for worship,
we had 3 computers tuned into vimeo, courtesy of HBBC and Dan Musten. Ultimately we completed the service and as
David With said to Wyatt Coleman and Sarah Grimes – WOW!
The Giles, the Barksdale’s, Hope and David attended New Light
Baptist as evidenced by these pictures. Their usual pastor, Ed Wade was out of town
and brother Maurice White was filling in. His sermon was from John chapter 8
verse 12. Maurice explained that we
should be a candle and light unto the world.
He said that the two ways for us to be a light were either to be a candle or be a mirror
that effects that light. He said that as
a mirror shines brighter after applying Windex, and the more often the better;
that when we nurture our soul, we can also shine brighter. It was a glorious day with one new member
coming forward. As always, the Men’s
Choir was outstanding with our Lionel Richie look/sound alike at his best. Kate, Taylor, Margaret and Courtney attend
St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church and received an inspiring message from
brother Ernest Womack. Kate was able to
reconnect with a lady that she had given her cross to last year in a very
meaningful story.
Lunch followed at The Helena Country Club followed by an
afternoon of team meetings. As the teams
gathered at New Light for a spaghetti dinner; David, Courtney and Taylor headed
to Memphis to pick up Elsie and Benda.
We returned to Helena about 9:15 to attend a team wrap up and planning
session and ………………….now at 11PM – blog time.
We are out of here early each morning as Camp begins at 8AM
this year rather that nine.
Keep us in your thoughts and prayers as you are in
ours. Best to our youth heading for
passport camp.
From the Delta
