Update

We continue to thank the Lord for Him, His mercy, grace, peace and provision. People are still putting their lives back together after the most devastating flood in TN in decades (perhaps ever considering the damage and loss).

Waverly community was hit hard, especially in main parts of town. The Waverly elementary school is closed until further notice. Homes have been flooded. Businesses have been flooded. Yet, people are moving forward with their lives. Volunteers are working together to help those in need.

The Waverly CGP was not damaged (that we know of) as of our last service this past Sunday. Members homes were not damaged and there was only minor damage to one members fencing where they keep their horses. The members and friends are praying for those who have suffered so much damage.

My daughter, Sarah, and her family have been given clothes, furniture, money and best of all love, care, prayer and support throughout this ordeal. All they need at this time, besides some things for setting up house, is to get into a house. They have signed a contract and are now waiting for the go ahead to move in.

God has been faithful through all this. As Job said, . . .the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. Job 1:21 Jesus has gone to prepare a place for those who are ready to meet Him. Bless HIS HOLY NAME!

This past week has been a week of fast-paced activity. The TN flood has kept us very busy. My youngest daughter and family were flooded out of their house. Today was the first day that anyone could get to the place - walking through a foot or more of mud and sludge. We are just thankful that all of her family are okay and with us for the next couple weeks or so. People have been so caring in giving items of clothing, furniture, personal items, kitchen items, food and money. We thank each one.

We did not have church last Sunday because of the flood. As far as I know, Waverly was also flooded considerably. Humphreys County Schools have been closed all this past week. We are praying for the people of Waverly. All of our church people made it through the flood without any serious harm.

We look forward to services this coming Sunday.
