The Fristoe area had really good weather during the week just past but it has turned toward colder with even nasty moisture in forecast for Monday. I guess the Kansas City area will be so excited from the Super Bowl (win or lose) that they won't notice what type of weather is taking place.
Sending out a happy birthday to my #1 firstborn granddaughter, Laney Marie Arnett as she celebrates her birthday on Friday, February 16, when she turns 18 years old. Can you all believe that Laney will be 18 years old? I remember like yesterday that night and then morning that Laney was born. Also having a birthday this coming week is a friend of mine for many years and aunt of Laney, Patty Jackman Lindsey who's having her birthday on Tuesday, February 20. You two have fun days on your birthdays!
We have word that Leland Brown is home and that is great news. Prayers are needed for these; Jesse Crouch, Kathy First, Amber First, Lovely Henderson, Carolee Apperson, Lewis and Judy Retherford, Gladys Harris, Curtis Allen, Mary Scarbrough and remember Connie Newkirk as she may be having back surgery.
If anyone is interested in the new barn that has been built west just out of Fristoe, it is a "chicken house" It is one that produces eggs. It has chickens and produce eggs but does not sell eggs in the area; they are shipped out of the area to be sold on the market.
Got word from Gracie Yoder this week and she is enjoying the adventures she is having do the work the Lord has cut out for her. She talked about and used the name of "Aldo National Park", as well as describing elephants, zebras and other animals and showed a picture of her with the cutest baby elephant. Gracie is doing much in work for the Lord and will be rewarded for it I am sure.
Fristoe Pentecostal Lighthouse Church: SUNDAY: Sunday School, 10:00 AM, Praise and Worship service, 11:00 AM . . . MONDAY: Ladies Prayer meeting, 9:00 AM . . . WEDNESDAY: Bible Study; Snacks, 5:30 PM, Study, 6:00 PM, Music, 7:00 PM!
Sunday School class touched on teaching from the disciples, especially Peter and then Paul; showing how they should help others and always have fellowship and prayers together. The books Acts and Ephesians were studied. Sister Delores is back in church and sang with the Lighthouse singers doing "If We Never Meet Again This Side Of Heaven" DoBee and Ken sang "Believe When You Call On His Name" and Br. Dave sang "I Am Redeemed". Br. Smith's message war from the book of Exodus, Chapters 15, 16 and 17. It was a wonderful message and encouraged all of us in the congregation to always be straight and trustworthy for the Lord and not murmur and complain against things like the children of Israel did. God is good and we should always appreciate what he does for us.
Thought for the week: The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction!
Happy Valentines Day to everyone reading the Fristoe News!
