Please continue to pray for the tornado victims; they are still needed as they try to put their lives back together.
Thankfully, the weather has not been as severe this past week. But you still need to be weather alert anytime there are watches in our area; they can turn into warnings so quickly.
Bro. Brett Oakes brought the message at Providence Baptist this past Sunday as we continue to seek a pastor. Anyone interested or who knows someone, contact a member of our church. We are looking for a bi-vocational pastor, so continue to be in prayer for our church. as we search for an interim pastor, as well as a new pastor.
We have begun preparing taxes at Volunteer Connections in Alexander City this past week. We will begin Wednesday, February 1, from 9 – 2 at the E-911 building in Rockford. Please park in the rear and use that entrance. We will be there each Wednesday through April 5.
The Coosa County Historical Society met this past Sunday. We are planning to reopen the old rock jail this spring. Before then, it needs cleaning and reworking the displays. We will have a workday on March 25 and need volunteers.
Also, we will be collecting the names and money for the additions to the Veterans Memorial. The cost will be $150 with more information next week on what information we need and where to send.
I’ve got behind in my reading the Bible through in a year, but the verse I’m sharing is from my readings this past week. Genesis 28:15 reads, “Look, I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go. I will bring you back to this land, for I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
Jacob was on his way to his mother’s family when he had a dream. The Lord confirmed that Jacob’s family would become a great nation and they would return from Egypt back to their land. But the most important part of this verse is God tells Jacob that He will be with him wherever and whatever happens. That is the same promise we have today if we believe in God. What a wonderful promise.
Continue to be in prayer for those that lost their homes in the storm and others that have recently lost their loved ones. There are several in our community that are not feeling well, so please pray for their healing in God’s will, as well. God knows their names and needs. Until next week, take care and be joyful!
Organizations in the area, as well as churches, I need your events! If your family has some news or an event to share, please contact me. I would prefer text to 334-414-7147 or emails to wardgrand6@gmail.com, but phone calls will be fine, too. If you don’t get me when you call, be sure to leave a message.
