The hive mind of Silertonians once again manifested itself at a fish fry this past Saturday, which benefitted the Freed-Hardeman Mid-South Youth Camp in Henderson. A healthy representation of Silertonians found themselves communing at the fish fry. None were deterred by the torrents of rain that turned the yards of many homes into temporary ponds.

There are many at Silerton Baptist Church who would wish for your prayers. As Brother Charlie said, this entire motley crew is in need of your prayers for their various ailments, and as Brother Charlie preached, one should never hesitate to ask for prayers or to give them.
August birthdays are coming up for Cody Clifton (Aug. 3), Vonda Siler (Aug. 7) and Mary Lynn Lambert (Aug. 15). Vonda is currently the oldest living Silertonian and deserving of all the rights and privileges this exalted rank gives her. Though Vonda is currently residing at an assisted living community in Jackson, Silerton still considers her very much a resident in their hearts and minds. Jamie and Marcus Fry paid her a visit last week, and except for a troublesome knee, they were pleased to find her doing well in spirit and body.
