Pastor Prayer

Tonight, as I write, our Pastor is at the funeral home with family and friends celebrating the life of the greatest earthly man he ever knew, DAD.Â Please pray for him and his family.Â Mrs. Rice will greatly need our prayers but will need them even more this time next week when she tries to adapt to a “new normal”.Â Her life along with the life of Pastor Charley and their entire family will never be the same, so please, please, pray for them.

Dr. Russell Rice—-Our loss is Heaven’s gain

Today, Mt. Jackson Baptist Church must say good-bye to a dear friend and wonderful man of God, Dr. RussellÂ Rice.Â Not only is he well known to us by the many revivals that he has held in the past, he is also our Pastor’s Dad.Â Pastor Charley and his family had to say good-bye to him today but they are rejoicing in the Lord as his Dad would so want him to do.Â Dr. Rice passed away early this afternoon.Â Pastor CharleyÂ spokeÂ this morningÂ about how his Dad may go to be with Jesus while he and many other family membersÂ are taking care of God’s business during church hours.Â While Jim and I were talking following the news,Â we chuckled and saidÂ nope, He waited until afterwards so that he made sure that they did God’s business first and then he was ready to go afterÂ making sure they did it the right way.Â Today, I ask thatÂ you join our Church Family inÂ prayer for comfort for our Pastor and his family.Â Â Â Â Â

A Sad Goodbye

We said goodbye to Betty this past Sunday with a few of her favorite songs and a wonderful meal. We will miss her and we wish her all the best. She will be moving this Friday. Here are the pictures we took of the going away dinner.

This Sunday is Betty’s Last Sunday.

Phyllis Rice — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 12:13:37 +0000

Just wanted to remind everyone that this Sunday is our going away dinner for our friend Betty H. She will be moving out of state in order to be closer to her family. We wish her all the best.
So bring food and come out and join us as we say goodbye to our dear friend.

Sunday, June 29

First, let me say it was so nice to see several visiting families with us yesterday. I hope they enjoyed worshiping with our church family. Also, what a blessing to have Pastor Harmon back with us and we were so thrilled to have him preach after his illness.

A first yesterday was Coach Cox singing in the men’s quartet. Many of you commented on how much you enjoyed it and that you had never heard him sing before. Yes, I think he has been holding out on us. We look forward to hearing much more from him.

Don’t forget to invite others to come to church with you. We want everyone to know what a good thing we have going on at Mt. Jackson.
