Faith Temple’s Thanksgiving Dinner evening celebration was held on Wed., Nov. 13, 2024, in Fleming Hall. Mrs. Amanda Campbell organized the event; Mrs. Cindy McCall and Mrs. Anna McCall decorated; Pastor Raymond D. Burrows recognized servers before blessing the food; and Mrs. Ann Burrows led in songs, accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Sandra Martin.   “Dear ones, as a church family, if I could have one of my dreams come more fully true, it’s this: that we learn to, or grow into, appreciating our church family more and more,” Pastor said, as he spoke after the meal. “That we not take each other for granted — not in the least.” If we want to appreciate another person and not look down on anyone, we should realize that each person we meet knows something we don’t know, he said.    “That person’s been somewhere you have not been, no matter who you are or where you came from,” he said, adding that such an attitude should “escalate” here in the church family. “It can only happ...

  Ms. Linda Trammell Ms. Linda Trammell gives this testimony for today:  “When I wake up, I thank the Lord for letting me live through the night!” she says. “That is a special blessing. Another day of surprises; I’m just glad to be here to experience whatever comes my way.”    She’s thankful for God’s awesomeness.    “When I go outdoors, I thank Him for the beautiful blue skies, the sunshine, the different trees (this time of the year they so pretty; the different autumn colors), and the flowers that are still blooming. These are things that I am grateful for every day, and I thank Him over and over for them. I can’t help it because it is so awesome. God is awesome! He made all the beautiful things for everyone to enjoy. Simple things, but yet so important.”    She says an occasional rainy day is nice because we usually need the rain and we have a tendency to slow down and read a book or do something that needs to be done that we h...
