A report on the April 11th meeting

Last evening our Dale County Gideon Camp enjoyed another uplifting monthly meeting.  Following reports from several of our chairpersons, a scripture reading and prayer from our chaplain, Don Turner; the 29 Gideon and Auxiliary members present enjoyed some fellowship time and a fine meal prepared by our caterer.  

  Auxiliary President, Lynn Price, gave a report on recent Auxiliary activities. Both scripture and Bible distributions went well.  During her report, a call went out to all of our Auxiliary members to set aside 9 a.m. on the morning of our cabinet meeting, for a time of Auxiliary prayer.  The cabinet meeting is always the Saturday before our monthly Camp meeting.  For the month of May that date will be May 4.  Please put that date and time on your calendars and join the Auxiliary as they gather to pray for our ministry. Prayer will be for our continued, collective determination to place a copy of God's word for the salvation of every girl, boy, man and woman seeking an eternal life after the trials of this temporal world.  You are truly needed during this monthly prayer time.

The program, "Pulling Together" took the subject content of each of the previous six programs from this year's Camp meetings and wove them into one wonderful "wrap-up" program for our Gideon year.  I believe everyone there was spiritually lifted and encouraged by the program and the time of sharing and prayer following the formal program.  Next month we will have elections and some special information that you will not want to miss.  Thank you for all you do in our community, your neighborhood and your church. Thank you for being a Gideon.
