Asking For Prayer:
Wayne Shearer came forward June 7 asking for prayer. Let us encourage Wayne.

Dustin Walling came forward June 14 asking for pray. Let us continue to encourage Dustin.

The Wallings are away Wednesday night and Sunday. Steve has appointments to raise support to go to the Florida School of Preaching in August. Keep them in your prayers.

From John’s Desk:
            We had a good number, 72, Sunday morning. We had 54 back Sunday night.  
            It is great to be back home. We had a wonderful week with 180 at Weeki Wachee Christian Camp. We had 13 baptisms. Our young men were outstanding in leading singing, prayer and our chapel talks. It is so uplifting to hear them carry out the worship each day.  Susan and Linda were late every day, but they worked hard when you could find them. Vickie runs a tight ship and makes all of us eat when it is time. If your late there will be another meal later. John Hendrix has a vacation with so many washing

dishes. I thought he was going to pull rank and make them let him have an extra turn, but he controlled himself well. It seemed we cooked everything in quantities of 240. If we had 180 why did we always have to fix 240 of what we were fixing. I finally figured it out. That was so we could have something to eat also. John Hendrix made 8 to 10 gallons of tea twice a day and we had Kool-Aid for the other half. The 100* temperature makes a person thirsty.
            Our week at Central Florida Bible Camp is coming up quickly. June 28 – July 4. If you are going, you have to have an application and deposit submitted NOW. Our staff is looking forward to it. Many from here will be going both staff and campers. We will need those at home to help fill the absence of those at camp. Please help when needed. Staff be sure to fill out your paper work for Steve. See the list of items needed for our week at Central Florida Bible Camp. Please bring them by June 21 so we know we have them. If you have any questions ask Travis.
             Vacation Bible School will be July 27 – 29, Monday night through Wednesday night.  Our theme is “Fishing With The Master.” Please plan to be here and bring others with you. We will have speakers each evening for the adults. The children will have classes for all ages. We have all our teachers set. Our teacher’s material is in. Teachers you can pick up your packet and begin working on it. Please be praying as well as planning for this good work.
            Keep Jean Odum, her daughter Debbie Mulligan, and her family in your prayers. Debbie hopes to be home by now. Jean will be there as long as needed. Debbie is doing well as far as I know.
            June Selby had knee surgery and is recovering at home. Fred said she did not have to have a full knee replacement as thought. Her chin is still giving her trouble. She had 37 stitches in it. They say another couple of weeks and it will be better. We are thankful we have modern surgery today. Keep her and Fred in your prayers. They have been through a lot in the past few months. They want to thank everyone for the prayers and cards.
            Nina Meier’s brother, George Bolling, has been diagnosed with cancer and it is malignant. They are going to begin treatment immediately. Keep George and his family in your prayers.  Shirley Abernathy is doing well. She is undergoing treatment and all looks well for her. They thank everyone for the cards and prayers.
            It was great to see Jean Collins here Sunday. She even brought a new friend. You cannot keep her down. She is always helping someone else.
            Jack Delozier had a stroke while we were gone. He is doing very well. He was to go golfing Saturday, but he waited, probably till Sunday. We want to keep Jack and Lori in our prayers.
            The monthly Men’s breakfast  is Saturday at South Florida Avenue in Lakeland, 8:00 a.m.
