Welcome by Gladys Wells, President.  Pledge of Allegiance was said and the opening song was “How Great Thou Art”.  The devotion was given by E. C. “Fats” Warren.  Door prize was found by Nell Landen.  We had one visitor.

E. C. “Fats Warren had the Program.  He started with the song “Jesus Loves Me”.  His text was from John and Acts of the Bible.  He than sang “There Is a River”.  He told the story of the crusifixation of Jesus.  The song “When He Was On the Cross” followed.  He then play “I'll Fly Away” and “He Touched Me” on his harmonica.  He also told some stories from a song book he had read telling how the writers got the ideas to write their songs.  He then sang “His Eye Is On The Sparrow.”

Prayer list:  Ann Johnson, J. Spence passed away, Mary McLais, family of Shelly Pittman, Patsy Lassiter, Myrtle Nance, Joe Parrish, Joyce Palmer, Faye Wood family, Peggy Heapby, Jeanne Eades, and Mary Warren.
