Greetings to you, my faithful readers. At the time of this writing our great fair will be underway. Today the parade will roll down the streets with decorated floats, cars and much more. We are celebrating 113 years of our fair. Over the years it has grown tremendously and has lots of things to see, exhibits, music, rodeo, animals and the fabulous midway.
Go to the fair and have yourself a good ole time with your family and friends. There will be lots of people there. Be sure to carry a jacket/umbrella just in case you need it. If you have little ones, make sure you know where they are at all times. There will be lots of traffic, so please drive carefully.
Our church will be in charge of singing at the Half Moon Bluff Church located in Mile Branch on Saturday of the fair 11:30 am til 1 pm. The coffee booth and water booth will need someone working there. Hopefully you will come join us for some good singing.

Crlayah Williams also has a birthday on October 24th and Kye Riley's birthday is October 14th. Hope your day is a special one.
Happy belated wedding anniversary to Dylan and Robin Clark and to Ethan and Alyssa Jackson. They were married in September. Hope your day was a special one.
We are still collecting the Georgia Barnette offering for State Missions for the rest of October. It's important to pray and give to this mission offering to help spread the good news of Jesus.
Mount Hermon School will have their Fall Festival on Friday, October 24th from 6-8 pm. Everyone will have a great time and are expecting you to be there.
"History of the Washington Parish Fair" is the theme for the October exhibit at the D.A. Varnado Store Museum. There are posters, catalogs, photographs, advertising, programs, documents, etc. If you are interested, go by for a visit on Saturday and Sunday, 1 pm until 4 pm. Your visit will be greatly appreciated. Note: The museum will be closed the weekend of the fair.
We have several on the prayer list. Please pray for the sick, lonely, shut-ins, and the breaved families.
That's all for now. Stay tuned for more. Same time! Same station. Keep on smiling. By the way, give someone a hug today! See you at the fair! Prayerfully Nell.
