I hope you all had a good week. One thing about Louisiana is you never know what the weather is going to be like. Over the weekend, we knew the weather might be rough, but Saturday night the power went out around midnight, and the weather came barreling through!
I know they always say a tornado sounds like a freight train and I have been in one a couple of times in North Louisiana (ironically both at Aunt Mary and Uncle Don Weston’s house), I don’t remember the sound of a train, but the sound of the wind was deafening. I am not saying we had a tornado Saturday night, but I am saying that the wind sounded ODD. So much so that I really wanted to duck and cover. We finally got power back on about 11:45 am Sunday. I am not ashamed to say that I am totally spoiled for heat/air, tv, phone, cooking, etc, I am spoiled for electricity. (haha)
Mike and Judy Fussell had their 50th Anniversary Celebration at church over the weekend. They are just the sweetest couple, and we are grateful for them and their service to our community.
Lee and Sandra Stevens are celebrating their 60th Anniversary this week. They are another amazing couple that we are so thankful for in our church and community. I hope y’all have a great week.
Happy birthday to Joel Brumfield, Hamp Robertson, Sue Jordan, Amy Inabnitt, Bradley Burch, Brittany Daniels, and Allison Thigpen.
Condolences to the families of Chris Goss, Cherry Brown, Sylvia Sue Crain Magee, and Christine Whittington.

Enon Elementary School is always doing fun and exciting things. We had a Kiss the Pig Fundraiser and Assistant Principal Barrett Bateman and Mrs. Gina Crawford from the cafeteria had to KISS THE PIG! (They were the lucky two with the most money raised, haha).
Bailey Spears, one of our former Enon Eagles came by to teach our 4th graders about proper oral hygiene. We are so proud of you Bailey, thank you!
