Tonight at church we had watergames for all the children. The children had a blast. We had the most fun throwing water balloons among other things. It was absolutely wonderful. We had between 15 and 20 children there. It was great!

Today is Friday and we are getting ready for another day at Cartersville Baptist Church. The bulletins are ready and David has been preparing for his sermon. Our numbers have been really down lately. I am so ready for our church to be filled to capacity and have to put chairs in. I wish that God would pour out His spirit on our church and fill it with people who love the Lord as much as David and I do. Is this too much to ask? For the Lord to send us some new people or bring back the old ones. We send cards, call people, do things for them and nothing happens. Lord I really need a blessing from you! I ask that you send us one and soon.

I also ask that the members of CBC start praying for this too! When we all join in together and ask God to bless you He will hear our prayers.

David and I went to the hospital this morning around 6:30 am. His MRI (of the brain) only took about an hour. They told us that the doctor had requested that the results be called into his office by 9:00 am this morning. Around 11:00 am this morning David called and said the test was negative. Praise the Lord! I think we were both thinking brain tumor or something of that nature. We are glad that this report came out great. He is still dizzy and having headaches but the doctor changed some of his heart medicine hoping that this would take care of the situation. Please keep us in your prayers especially as we get ready for vacation.

This is my baby. She was missing this weekend and we finally found her yesterday. God even answers prayers regarding our feline friends.

Tomorrow is a scary for my husband and I. David is to have an MRI of the brain tomorrow morning. He has been dizzy and having headaches. We are both scared but we are relying on God to supply all our needs. Whatever is in our future I know that God will be in control. I do know that I have a loving church family who will be there with us no matter what happens. I love my church family and praise God that He sent us to that small country church.

Today was a great day at church. One of our youngest guys sang today for the first time. He did a great job. Our pianist was out today so guess who got to fill in? Me! That was a miracle. I have not toched a piano in years. I did the best I could and somehow we made it through.

After church 15 or so of us went to a new restaurant in Lamar. It was really great. It was good to have everyone together to enjoying a meal.

This week we had nine children and youth who went to camp. Five children and four youth. Out of these nine children we had one who made a profession of faith. That is worth everything to me! To have one more in the kingdom of God.

This is my first ever post to a blog. I am not sure what to write.

Our church is very small. We have about 75 members which includes babies, preschoolers, children, youth, young couples, and senior adults.

We meet on Sunday mornings at 10:00 for Sunday School and 11:00 am for Worship. We also meet on Wednesday evenings for prayer meeting and children and youth activities.

We have a lot to offer those looking for a home church.
