As our nation prepares to celebrate the Memorial Day holiday

thank all of those current and former members of the armed services, for their bravery and

courage in protecting our liberties and guarding our lives.

five times a week for the same 6 weeks.

John Spencer had back surgery last Wednesday to

deal with his severe spinal stenosis. The surgery

went very well and he expected to go home on

Ybarra, remains in NICU following her premature

Additional Deacons Proposed

Last Sunday, the elders placed before the congregation the names of three men to serve

as additional deacons. These men are Don Berryman, Curtis Gardner and Joey

Janoch. If you know of any scriptural reason why any of these men are not qualified to serve, you must present this to one of the elders by Sunday, June 12. If there are no

objections, all three men will be appointed to serve on Sunday, June 19.

Curtis Hartshorn, from Checotah

Church of Christ in Oklahoma, will

be bringing the sermon tonight.
