Last Sunday morning folks at Calvary Baptist Church enjoyed a program of music by Eddie and Pat St. Clair of Rutherford County. They also spoke on their work with the Kairos Prison Ministries created by Ediores Bonnie in Spain in 1949. Introduced in Western North Carolina in 2008, the ministry focuses on principles of listen and love; inmates tell of their experiences as leaders listen and teach them to forgive and love.

Donnie Keller has continued to heal the past week and is scheduled to have skin grafting today (Thursday). Caleb Williams is doing well as his regular blood checks indicate no serious problem; but he must still remain rather isolated due to his weak immune system. Join us in prayer for the Lord’s divine healing and blessings upon Donnie, Caleb, and other residents who are having health problems.
Remember in prayer the family of Diane Sain Crotts, who died last Friday at Davie Nursing and Rehabilitation Center; she was sister of the late County Line firefighter Wendell Sain. Remember in prayer the victims of the severe earthquake in Myanmar and Bangkok and the victims of the flooding of Hurricane Helene in our mountains.
