I recently got a request from a friend to put a unspoken prayer request on Wedowee Words. I don't any of the details, other than it really sounded important. Please take a second out of your busy Memorial Day weekend to say a prayer.

Speaking of Memorial Day... Thank a Veteran! Your ability to do what you wish to do today is thanks to the brave men and women who fight for our individual freedoms! I personally would like to thank my husband, Robby, for his unwavering devotion to our God, Family, and Country. He was in the USN as a Search and Rescue Air Crewman (think "The Guardian"---literally!---he did exactly that!) during the time of Mohamar Khadafy's reign in the Middle East. Thanks.

I'd also like to congratulate all of our county graduates! Pray for them as they are on their many different senior trips. Congratulations on all of your achievements!

VBS Announcements:

First Baptist Wedowee will be hosting its annual Vacation Bible School June 1st - June 5th from 8:30 - 11:30. The theme is "Boomerang Express-It all come back to Jesus"... It is set in the Australian Outback and looks to be an exciting time! The church will be using it's new Family Life Center to the fullest! Come out and Enjoy!

Vacation Bible School is also going on at Jordan's Chapel Methodist Church during the same week June 1st - June 5th from 6:00 p.m until 8:00 pm each night. It may be a long drive for some of you but be sure the kids will enjoy it. The theme this year is Crocodile Dock. They would love for your children to attend. The ones who attended last year had a ball. If you can't make arrangements to get them there let me know and I can put you in contact with someone who might be able work some kind of transportation arrangement out. Jordan's Chapel is also having a VBS kickoff on Saturday May 30th from 2:00 - 4:00 and there will be water activities. (slip n slide and water balloons - so the children will get wet...)!

Take your children to both events! What more could you want? Children who have been exposed to Jesus' message.... AND worn out from all of the fun! =] Guaranteed to help you both get a good night's sleep!
