This morning as usual on Saturdays I went to the Gideon Prayer Breakfast at the Parkway Medical Center.  The usual agenda, Scripture reading today was James chapter 1. Then prayer requests.  One thing I have noted over the past few years is that the older you get, the longer your prayer list gets.  Seems like more of the folks you know need prayer. One of my friends is in the hospital with brain cancer, another broke 3 of his fingers, another has gout in both feet, the list could go on and on... but, we serve a Mighty God and I know he has us all in his hand. So if you are reading this pray for me and my friends. 

I am the Memorial Bible Coordinator in our Gideon camp and am always encouraging folks to send "Thinking of You", In Recognition" or "In Memory" cards provided by the Gideons.  This allows one to send a card and donate some money to the Gideons that is 100% used for purchase and placement of Scriptures.  So visit the Gideon web site http://www.gideons.org if you need a card to send a family member or friend.  Its easy to use just click on the site and select a card, fill in the form with your credit card number and the number of Bibles you want to donate and The Gideons will send the card, you don't even have to spend .37 cents for the stamp.

Now we have Christmas Cards and we encourage all to use them for family and friends. You may order them by clicking on the card image on the page.

What better gift to give than that of God’s Word, allowing the recipient the opportunity to also receive eternal life in heaven. There are so many still who do not know where their eternity lies. There are so many still that do not have, and cannot afford, a copy of God’s Word.

Christmas cards are available in packages of 10 for $16 (2 cards of each style). You may order here on the web page by filling your information in below and clicking the Credit Card button or download and complete return the Adobe Acrobat form by clicking here (PDF 139Kb).

Well enough for now, I have a bunch of leaves that need racking; I think it has warmed up enough to allow me to get out now. I'm just putting them in big piles,

my grandson Gabe will be back from New York soon and he will bag them up for me. 

Are you ready for Thanksgiving?  Check out this awesome card by clicking on the card.

God bless you all and stay warm and safe.
