Rev. Harbison
As many of you know, I am currently in the hospital receiving intravenous antibiotics and undergoing some tests. I hope to leave the hospital by Friday.  I am thankful for all your support during the last two weeks. Please continue to pray for my family and me as we try to get to the bottom of this illness. 

Rev. Dr. Bill Wade will be preaching again Sunday.  Thanks to Bill for being "in the bullpen" and available for call-up.
 
Love,
Scott signature

A Closing Prayer    

Gracious God, in order that the children of earth might discern good from evil you sent your Son to be the light of the world. As Christ shines upon us, may we learn what pleases you, and live in all truth and goodness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.                            From the The Book of Common Worship
