Howdy, everyone, and I hope that you Sabbath is off to a good start. It’s amazing what a week, it’s been — I was reviewing last week’s Friday Night Greetings video, and I’m amazed at how much has transpired in just one week. I discuss a bit more in the video, but let me repeat here what I say there: thanks to all of you for your prayers. We love you and appreciate you, so much.
(I apologize, by the way, that the video has come out so late. I experienced numerous difficulties with YouTube tonight, possibly because the video was 8 seconds longer than 10 minutes, and resorted to doing an iPhone video as a hopeful short cut around those difficulties — so, hopefully better late is than never!)
You may note in the announcements this Sabbath that Mr. Adam West has been assigned to help out in this area after my move, probably in a very similar manner to what I did while I was training in Kansas City. If you haven’t checked it out yet, let me highlight it for you: I have added Mr. West’s blog “Path Pondering” to the Blogroll of this website on the right (just under the calendar). Feel free to click and check it out!
Also, let me say here that whether or not we will be able to have a monthly Bible Study in March is very much up in the air at this point. We will have to travel to Ohio sometime next week to be there for the house inspection and other complications may make it difficult. But I haven’t given up on it, so stay tuned!
The Friday Night Greetings video is below. Take care, and have a wonderful Sabbath.
Howdy, everyone, and I hope that your day of Sabbath preparation is wrapping up well! Ours has been busy as we get ready both the weekend and our out of town trip.
I’m going to keep this short (believe it or not) so that I can get up and help my missus as sundown approacheth. The video below was not actually taped tonight, as I explain, but I hereby publicly thank Boy #4 for serving as my special effects art department and helping me to pretend that it was, indeed, made at sundown. (All of that blather explained in the video.)
Have a wonderful Sabbath and a fantastic weekend! The Friday Night Greetings video is below.
Well, I know it’s just about too late (Bible Studies tonight and tomorrow!), but for those needing them I have updated the links on the Booklet page. Just click on the tab at the top of this page to go there.
Howdy, everyone! FYI: There is a new speaking schedule posted to accommodate our new week-to-week circuit and some other details. Some changes were made in sermonette & songleading assignments, as well, though not too many. Please check it out if you are an assigned speaker or songleader in our congregations.
Howdy, everyone! I am glad that the winter weather has let up a little bit and more of us should be able to make it to services this weekend. Still, if you have it bad where you are, don’t do anything risky, and let someone know your situation so that we won’t worry about you!
The Friday Night Greetings video is below. I refer in the greetings to a YouTube video of Andrea Bocelli (whose name I mangle in the video) performing with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and singing “The Lord’s Prayer.” Here is a link to that performance if you would like to see it: “Andrea Bocelli & The Mormon Tabernacle Choir – The Lord’s Prayer (2009)”
Howdy, everyone, and I hope your Sabbath is off to a wonderful start! Sorry that this is coming out a bit late tonight, but I want a little long (babbling) in my first video, tonight, after uploading the whole thing, YouTube removed it due to the fact that it was over 10 minutes. Sooooo, I redid it and all is well, now.
Something not mentioned in the video: I do plan to continue our monthly Bible Studies before I leave the area, though the need to travel in preparation may mean some changes in the scheduling. In particular, I plan to schedule the St. Louis & Columbia Bible Studies back-to-back in the same week this month and possibly next. More details should be forthcoming next Sabbath, but suffice it to say that I am not going to do the normal “2nd & 3rd Wednesdays” schedule wew have been using until now.
Have a wonderful Sabbath! The Friday Night Greeting video is below.
Howdy, everyone! I apologize that I was not able to do a Friday Night Greetings video yesterday, but with today’s announcements on my mind, I would have found it hard to talk about anything else and I did not want to pre-empt those announcements (as I think I discuss in the video).
There is so much I would like to say — and, you know me, over the next two months I probably will say them! — but it will be better to say them later. Goodbyes can be hard enough, especially when they are stretched out over two months or so! For now, let me just stick with what I have recorded in the video below and I will add, only, that I am very thankful to HQ for putting so much thought and prayer into this transfer and their care and concern for God’s people is apparent.
We really do love you all, and we plan to squeeze in as many visits to each area as we can between now and the beginning of April. The Saturday Night Greetings video is below.
My apologies that there is no Friday Night Greetings, tonight! I will endeavor to create a Saturday Night Greetings tomorrow night to make up for it, so check in again…
Howdy, everyone! I don’t have much to say tonight other than to mention that we should all be prepared for new folks in our midst. It seems that many are calling us and wanting to attend. St. Louis has seen a great deal of growth already, but folks are calling in from the Rolla and Columbia areas, too. We may even have some visitors in both areas this Sabbath — outstanding!
The Friday Night Greetings are below. Have an absolutely fantastic, uplifting, and edifying Sabbath!
