Betsie's Bits and Pieces

Bits & Pieces
Sunday 12-7-19

Betty Johnson wants you to know that Tom Johnson passed away Saturday evening.  He just quit breathing and was peaceful.  We aren't sure when the funeral is, but I will let you know.  Thank you for your prayers! Betty can use our prayers at this time.

There were 151 people in church this morning being Teddy Bear Sunday, there were lots of bears gracing the stage this morning. Pastor said that he would take bears anytime. If you didn't get your bear to church this Sunday, bring them next Sunday.    Announcements: ***Bob Williams will be heading back to Houston to M D Anderson. Keep him and Jean in your prayers.  **It was good to see Lowell Johnson in church this morning.   ***Caroling will be in the hall on December 22nd at 6:00 pm. Sing all kinds of Christmas songs.   ***The Candlelight service will be at 6:00 pm in the hall. If you have never been it is a very impressive service. Bring finger food to share. It is a nice time to visit with our Trophy family and friends and share in the food after the service.
