Ascension Sunday Blessings

The worship services at the First UMC and at the McCamey Convalescent Center (MCC) were both Spirit-filled today!  The choir sang a beautiful hymn, "Walk On, O People of God," a Spanish tune which really fit today's scripture lessons.  The choir was singing without Gloria and Louise, both of whom are under the weather this weekend.

The MCC service was really a blessing with more than 25 in attendence.  Thanks to Belinda Alkula, Roy & Alice Kephart, Bill & Bobbie Lester and Cytha Peters for sharing this time with the residents, visitors and staff.

Joys from this morning's worship:
Eric and Sara H.’s Family Pew.
Gary and Luann E.’s Family Pew.
Healing joys: Verla F., Sheila H. (Belinda A.’s mother)
Coy and Joan C.’s great grandbaby.
Beautiful flowers donated by the family of Billie Reaves (from her memorial service).

Concerns from this morning's worship:
Family of Billie Reaves.
Next week’s meetings of the Southwest Texas Conference.
Healing Mercies: Louise C., Gloria O., Sara H.’s grandmother.
Travelling mercies.
Today’s Empty Pews: Where are the other 66 people who are on the church rolls? All of us need to commit to connect with them and invite them to return to their home church.
