Random Word Association Update

517 people attended Graystone yesterday. It was great to see an army of people serving and taking greeting/ushering to a HNL.

In Christ, you are forgiven.

Chainbreaker was stuck in my head all day Sunday.

We are now celebrating the Lord's Supper on Sunday mornings (once a month).

Matt Harvie worshiped at Grace Fellowship yesterday.

Joelan won a tennis match in his first ever USTA Tourney.

Julia's Blue Lightning are undefeated.

Jessie likes to kiss her dad with her mouth open (see pic below).

My vasectomy is scheduled for October 3.

I love the GSM T-shirts.

Several coaches have rescheduled their practices so their players can attend GSM.

It was great to see a plethora of people meeting in small groups at the church last night.

My Men's Small Group kicked off last night with 12 men seeking to be disciples of Jesus Christ. This week we are memorizing Psalm 119:9,11 and Proverbs 3:5-6.

I'm still trusting God to provide the down payment on the 7 acres. The closing is at the end of the month.

Jennifer and I are working hard to stick with Joe's Monthly Budget Form.

My cousin Aris still does not have power in Baton Rouge from Gustav.

Auburn beat MSU 3-2. I hope this same Auburn team shows up Saturday as LSU begins their regular season.

5 SEC Teams are in the Top 10. I'm not sure why Georgia keeps dropping in the polls.

The MS Mullets are up 97.50 to 70.84 on Tony's Ultimate Avengers heading into MNF. Everyone needs to pull against Marion Barber. I might be addicted to fantasy football.

HOSTAGE continues next Sunday, "Breaking Free from Your Hurt".

September 28 is Hymn Sunday.

October 12 is Rams Sunday. I'm trusting God that this will be the largest Sunday in the history of Graystone Church. Hopefully, we will push the 800 mark, and we will have a live feed set up to an overflow room in the coffee house.

God is good!
Johnny

Jonatha, didn't get a chance to tell you on Sunday but it was an awesome service. The message was powerful and if anyone missed the answer for our lives and salvation it will not be because of any muddled or unclear message from you. God is doing such wonderful things for Graystone through you and Jennifer and I am so blessed to be a part of watching God's miracle come to life. Your old ewe.
