Update on Bro. Kevin's dad.--- Patty-- "My dad-in-law was involved in a wreck on Saturday afternoon. Kevin received a call from his brother-in-law while he and Jacob were getting ready to ride the Barnstormer. It was not a call we wanted to receive. Kevin felt completely helpless being so far away and not knowing what was going on. Dad was airlifted from Meridian to UMC in Jackson late Saturday night. They kept him heavily sedated, in ICU, throughout the night and yesterday. He has an unstable fractured disk in his neck, and he does have some spinal cord damage, c6/c7 vertebrae. His arm and leg movements are weakened. He will be having surgery this morning to repair the three disks. It will be up to an 8 hour surgery. Once the surgery is over they will hold him for five days, and then move him back to Meridian so that he can do physical therapy to hopefully regain complete function. Kevin's family is very optimistic; we all know that God is with him and will help to see him through this. We covet your prayers as he undergoes the surgery and his lengthy recovery. Please pray for Kevin as he begins a week long class today. He feels horrible not being able to be at the hospital. However, he has to take this class or he won't be able to take it again for a year, which means no graduation. We will leave to be with Mom and Dad as soon as his class is over on Friday. Please pray that Kevin will have a peace about the whole situation and be able to focus as he travels to NOBTS today. Thanks and God bless!"

Some of these photos were taken by Mrs. Patty and some were taken by Amber Cutrer. If you have pictures of the trip, please add them or tag them.

Day 1 of the mission trip: We had about 20-25 kids for VBS. Since this is a new church and they have never held a VBS, I think it was an outstanding turn out. Our students did a great job serving in the church today. I'm so proud of them. Right now they are out in the community doing yard work. Please pray that they will have a safe afternoon and that they are sensitive to the needs around them. I know God will be working in and through them. Kevin thought it would be best for Jacob and I to go back our host home for the afternoon session. He is currently taking a nap. He has been such a good little boy. I have been pleasantly surprised at how well he has handled the ride and the first day of VBS. We will have a worship service tonight after our supper, please pray we will be receptive as the Lord speaks to all of us. God bless!

Hey Guys!!! MOVIE NIGHT!!!!! This Friday night, April 12 at 6:00 pm we will be watching the movie October Baby in the Fellowship Hall. We'll also be eating movie snacks and enjoying sweet fellowship with one another. Hope to see you there!!!!!
