We have just completed a fantastic Vacation Bible School. God was so good to us to bring so many willing and talented people together to make this week a success. I first want to thank the congregation as a whole for their support and the snacks they supplied. I also appreciate our elders, who had the foresight to allow this evangelistic effort. The following are to be recognized for their help in so many different ways: Martha Barch, June Barringer, Billy Collins, Judy Griffin, Martha Hodum, Rachel Hodum, Lenwood Luttrell, Anna Rhodes, Carolyn Smith, Jack Thomas, Faith Ritchey, Sandra Cooper, Jacob Wallace, June Wallace, Noah Wallace, Karen Wallace, and Allison Wooley. All these individuals helped make our VBS a success.
At this writing we are looking forward to having 15 students from the Foundations class from the Memphis School of Preaching conduct services on Wednesday evening. Also, this coming Sunday, June 29, we are having our fifth Sunday fellowship luncheon. You may be unaware that Getwell has a Facebook page. Like us on Facebook at Getwell Church of Christ. Jacob Wallace keeps this site updated.
Please note across the page from this article is the announcement concerning an appreciation dinner for Alan Highers, marking his 25th anniversary as editor of THE SPIRITUAL SWORD journal. In addition to notes of appreciation feel free to send notes or e-mails regarding memories from the past, such as brother Highers hitting a cow with his automobile or founding the Getwell Road School of Preaching, which later became the Memphis School of Preaching.
