with Gayle Cox

I would like to send out a “Happy Father’s Day” wish to all the wonderful dads in Chester County. I certainly wish I could spend that day with my Dad, but I do have great memories of him and all he did for me during his lifetime. I was definitely a Daddy’s Girl.
Montezuma United Methodist Church will also be having a Church Camp fundraiser dinner and bake sale at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 18. They will have barbeque plates with sides and dessert for dine-in or carryout for $9 per plate. Please call 608-5683 or 608-4420 for tickets in advance of the event.
Our center is available for rent, and you can contact Betty Cooper at 879-9078 for price and availability of the community center.
Montezuma sends out Happy Birthday wishes to Reyna Thomas and Anthony Reddin on June 18, Jaysielyn Quarles on June 20 and Dub Burkhead on June 23. Montezuma sends out Happy Anniversary wishes to Andy and Renea Thomas on June 17.
With so much unrest in our country, I pray that each of you believers will be praying continually for our government and for the American people to turn their way back to God and His Word. Please pray for Kolby Cunningham, Claudie Malone, Nancy Thomas, Jennifer Paton, Imogene Naylor, Dwight Rhodes, Lill Emerson, Karon Connor Reinmann, Larry Lambert, Samantha Stark, Nancy Crouse, Martha Cooper, Jake Richardson, Ashley Pugh, Faye Morrison, Doug Thomas, Ann Morrison, Faye Crouse, Ed Morris, healthcare workers and law enforcement. We especially want to remember the families of Jason Ray, Harold Wayne Hathcock, Mary Nell Guinn White and other families that have recently lost loved ones. May God provide healing to those that are sick and wisdom to those that may need it for life decisions.
Wishing a very blessed week to all you readers!
