White Hall First Christian

March 2007

Just a Closer Walk… Too-ra-loo-ra Rex implied… we’re getting tired of you.. bring some help.

A night to think about Friends… Perhaps God’s greatest earthly gift to us… CAMP: Friends leading Friends to Christ. Why are you here tonight? Most of us… because a friend prayed for us or lead us to Christ.

Lincoln: “The Better part of a man’s life consists of his friendships.” Many good White Hall friends over the years.. Rex, Frank Hopkins, Marjorie Watt.. Mr. and Mrs. Guthrie… My first good friend….My Grandpa… two fingers. Eulogy..what he didn’t have.. We so often associate particular songs with people…. Grandpa’s favorite song… Redwing .. Can Anybody name it?

Windshield wiper blades. My best friend to curb my pride.. Mom! Speech contest! Music trophy! “Yea, well if you can’t clean your room, it really doesn’t matter.” Mom’s favorite songs… In the Garden, Sentimental Journey

Grandma: taught me to work hard. Farm woman. Chicken head. From her mother’s diary: “Not much accomplished so far today. Got up and gathered eggs, fed the livestock, puttered a bit in the garden, scrubbed the upstairs floors, then woke the men for breakfast.” Her favorites…. Amazing Grace, 5’ 2”

Dad turned 87 this week.. Heart Cath.. Truck .. (Sung as he shaved): What a Friend… How Great Thou Art, Alabama Jubilee

Adam…. Young man came to camp. No music. Beautiful. Pittsfield program last year. Sang it again. Called: contest.

Rick… Probably my best friend.

A Sing-along.. requests from the audience?
