For the past few days, Sister Gordon and I have been to a funeral, a funeral home and hospitals the past few days. Robert George Hill's remains were laid to rest yesterday around 4:30 pm. Bobby was a very good man. He was a deacon at his local church. He was a faithful Christian, churchman and family man. The funeral was very touching and pertinent for Brother Bobby's life and celebration of going home to heaven. He is now with his wife, Linda, his father, Neely and others who have gone on.

Sister Gordon and I also visited the funeral home where two young men's remains are laid for memorial service today. One of our church attenders, Delilah Mummel, was very close to this family and we are praying for this family and all the friends. Brandon (22) and James (17) are now with their mother who died about a year ago with a brain aneurism. The middle brother and father is still alive and needs all the support the community and church can give them.

We visited the hospital this morning with Sister Susie Reynolds and her husband, Leon and daughter, Josie. Sister Reynolds is having knee surgery. We visited and prayed with her and stayed with the family some time to fellowship, support and encourage them. Sister Susie is in our continued prayer. Others who are requesting prayer are Lenne Mae Crossno, Bonnie Curtis, Jennie Sanders, Lilly Grooms, Daniel Conner (who is in Vanderbilt from a 4-wheeler accident), and others who are sick.

We are praying for revival here at Huntingdon and for God to bless this church and community richly.
