Having just turned 81, these are my birthday thoughts. Angel Wings cards and people have shared many of these same thoughts. Getting older Is no fun; Needing strength for the day; Ready to Go, ready to stay; Looking to Jesus every moment; In the sweet by and by; Victory in Jesus; Some Golden Sunrise; Together […]
As I write this article we just had a time of fellowship together as a church at Mountaintown Campground. I realize that not everyone could be there but it was good to be able to have a number of our folks out there just relaxing and enjoying one another’s company. I want to thank the […]

I can hardly believe that the summer is flying by like it is. July is upon us and we have a busy month coming up. July 2nd we will have a cookout/picnic at the church at 5pm and I look forward to a time of fun and fellowship with my brothers and sisters in Christ. […]
