My Fair week holiday was spent visiting with others. I visited with both my daughters/granddaughter in Atlanta and Biloxi. The time spent traveling to see them was well worth it. I was treated to delicious meals at my daughter's workplace in Atlanta, as well as my first Uber ride. In Biloxi more great food including homemade tacos & enchiladas. Though both daughters are adults now, they still need their Mama.
Church News:
Wesley Ray UMC:
*On Youth Sunday/October 22nd, the church congregation dressed in “Pink” for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. A presentation was made for Breast Cancer Survivors, in the congregation. Pastor August’s sermon dealt with “Surrender” (Matthew 22:20-21). He taught that in order to render to God we should do the following: Give of our Time, serve God with All our Fruits, give God our hearts and Trust God with our whole heart. Pastor August also shared that we should be willing, humble and grateful and we will receive peace and become stronger. Lastly, he shared that until God has all of us (body & soul) then He has none of us.
