MEADE COUNTY PARISH MISSION - NIGHT THREE

NIGHT THREE
LOVING YOUR NEIGHBOR AND LETTING THEIR LIGHT SHINE
Saying No to Gossip, Jealousy and Suspicion

The tongue is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless the Lord and Father, 
and with it we curse human beings who are made in the likeness of God. 
From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. This need not be so, my brothers.
James 3:1-12









Deacon Greg and Shirley Beavin.
They were my hosts and main helpers during all three nights.
Made County is very fortunate to have them and their generous service to the Church.



I did the talking, but the musicians made it exciting and fun. They did a great job of getting people to sing a whole bunch of new gospel music that many had never heard. Let's give them a hand!



Our fabulous gospel music group.

Sister, brother, sister, great-nephew, cousin and friends.



Each night the refreshment tables got longer. Parishes took turn.




Jerry Greenwell preserved it all on tape for those who could not attend, for looking at again and for the history archives.






After the musicians were paid, my mission projects in the islands made another step toward setting up my headquarters down there to receive volunteers and finishing a new chapel in the Diocesan Pastoral Center.  The total being sent to the missions of SVG is $5,000.



The hall is empty now, but I will be back!

  1. I enjoyed seeing the pictures so much, as a former parishioner. Thank you so much. I still miss everyone intensely. As Always, Shirley Ansbaugh
