The Family Times
June 2018
On my mind . . .
Memorial Day 2018 has come and gone but any day, any season is good to remember loved ones who have
passed to the Lord. I have assembled below a list of all the church members who, since I started my pastorate
here in September 2000, have died, as well as relatives/friends and community people for whom I have had the
honor of officiating last services,. Some people you will know well; others, perhaps not.
I invite you to take a quiet, unhurried moment to read these names thoughtfully and give thanks to God for the
life of each of these special people. Let God lead your thoughts, reflections, pauses, and memories. Perhaps
others dear to you will also come to your mind.
Let us give thanks for the dear people whom God has woven into the fabric of our lives and of our church. We
are here, not only for the Lord, but also for each other. Just like these beloved named here, you too are a bless-
ing in someone else's life. You matter!
See you on Sunday!

SUMMER VISITATION PLANNED
You are invited to participate in a summer
experience that will be so beneficial to you
and to others! Join us on Tuesday, July 17th,
when the Outreach Team visits church family
shut-ins. Everyone who has ever been involved
with the visitations, has been happy they did.
The group meets at the church at 10:00 AM
and visits with partners to just one shut-in.
Following the visits we all
have lunch together
to share our particular visit.
If you have any questions,
please see Joanne Pileski.
First English Baptist Church Members,
Thank you so much for all the prayers and love that
you’ve given me the past few weeks! I truly appreciate it!
The prayer blanket was so comforting to have both in
the hospital and at home. It was also comforting to
know that so many people were praying for me during
this time. The surgery went well and recovery
has been going really well so far too.
Thanks again, Megan deGruchy
During a time like this we realize how much
our friends and relatives really mean to us…
Your expression of sympathy
will always be remembered.
The family of Larue W. Penman - Betty
Prayer Breakfast Fellowship:
Thank you for all of your prayers, and for the prayer
blanket. Every time I use it I feel wrapped in prayers
and love. My Bob will be going to Geisinger on May 1st
for a heart cauterization to find out what is going on with
his heart. We will be glad to find out what is going on.
We have been blessed with everyone’s prayers.
Thank you again, Bob and Elaine Black
(Carey’s Uncle and Aunt.) Update: Uncle Bob had open
heart surgery recently due to blockages. Please continue
to keep them in your prayers for healing and strength.
Thank you blanket makers for allowing me to share
blankets with them. Love, Carey
The Prayer Group:
For your continued prayers
I thank you so much.
- Danny Stoneham’s Mother
(Update: Carey’s brother, Danny is improving slowly.
With each day we see healing of mind, spirit and body.
Thank you all so much for your continued prayers for my
brother and my parents, they are really working.)
Love, Carey

Hi from sunny Florida…
Wanted to let you know that I have
a new address. Moved on April 4th
to an Independent Living facility.
Have my own 2 bedroom
-2 bath apartment.
I was lonely and thought this would
give me people contact and the
family would know that some one
was checking up on me. It’s very
nice and I know many of the
residents here. So far, so good.
My daughter, Lisa, has been with
me since I got ill and was admitted
to the hospital with pneumonia
on moving day. Couldn’t get
along without my family.
Getting stronger each day.
- Sally McCloskey
New address:
2411 Emerald Lake Drive
Apartment 210
Sun City Center, FL 33573-4890
Here is a picture of Shirley Clapp
celebrating her 95th birthday… she loved
all the birthday cards and visits and
thanks everyone at FEBC for their love.
It meant so much to her! - Emily
