Family Reunion Time!
When I was much younger, my father felt it was important to know our relatives. We would drive a couple of hours away to meet new people or to visit family members whom I had not seen in several years. It was always an interesting time, catching up on what had been going on or meeting new family members. The food was always great and some of the family members were a little strange, but it was always a good time.
Well, it is family reunion time again for the association, or otherwise known as Annual Meeting. Psalm 133:1 says, “How good and pleasant it is when brothers live in unity.” This is that good time of coming together to share what God has been doing throughout Leflore Association. We get to hear reports and conduct the business of the Association.
This year messengers will be voting on the possibility of starting a free clinic here in the other half of the building. If this is approved, the next step would be to create an Oversite Committee for the clinic. We are hopeful that all LBA churches come and bring messengers to help plot the course for the future of Leflore Baptist Association.
I also want to share the news that the association has purchased a truck to pull the trailer. Praise God and thank you to the kind hearts of the people who make up this association. The truck will be at the Annual Meeting so you can see it, along with the scissor lift owned by the association.
Please mark your calendars for September 24 at Pocola Trinity starting at 2:00 p.m. Don’t miss this family reunion; it’s going to be fun!
