Where did Summer go? Seems like only yesterday we were planning for the Big 4th of July Celebration and Poco Bueno. Now the starting of School and Labor Day is here. Time really flies by when you are having Fun! To live in Port O’Connor is one of God’s Biggest Blessings. Something is happening all the time and if you are a part of it, and you should be, you are having the time of your life. Everyone is looking forward to the Big Labor Day Bash.

This past Sunday the Church was Blessed, in the Morning Service, with the beautiful music of RUTH HAMMONS, a visitor to Port O’Connor and she has a fantastic voice. Ruth sang “Tell Me The Story Of Jesus” and “I Love To Tell The Story”. What an inspiring piece of music that really came to life with Ruth’s voice! The Church has been blessed this Summer with many visitors. Some of our former members who have moved away from Port O’Connor have been in our recent services. It is always a treat to see our friends in the service.

Last Sunday, our Pastor Donnie Martin, baptized one of our newest members, RICHARD PATER. The Ordinance of Baptism is always an inspirational event. Bro. Raymond Grant gave an outstanding Children’s Sermon, which equally was enjoyed by the adults.

The ladies of the Church and their friends are enjoying the “Ladies Book/Bible Study” every Tuesday Evening from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in Fellowship Hall. The Ladies invite all who wish to join with them in this exciting time of Christian Fellowship of knowledge to come this Tuesday at 5:00 p.m.

The Senior Adult Retreat at Camp Zephyr is only a few weeks away. The Camp begins Monday, September 22 through Thursday September 25. The cost is only $100 per person, which includes your motel lodging and all meals and refreshments. The beautiful music is under the leadership of MARCOS & SUE GOHLKE, the Devotions by GEORGE YARBROUGH and the outstanding Bible Study by DR. JIMMY ARNOLD. For additional information call Doyle Adams at 983-4866. See you in Church Sunday!
