Free slurpees?!

WOW oo00oo
FREE SLURPEES TODAY!?
Wouldn’t have known except for a DIY blog post.

Alright kids, it’s time to go get your favorite cool-tasty beverage from 7-Eleven. That’s right, Slurpees are FREE today. Why, you ask? Because it’s 7/11 of course! The Slurpees are small, at just 7.11 ounces, but whose complaining – it’s free, right? Start at the north end of town and hit every 7-Eleven within a 20 mile radius. But get down there quick, because the deal ends at 11pm (of course).

Jet ski over the spillway

Did anyone else see this video?
One of the guys at our Wednesday morning Bible study told us about this accident and I had to check it out.
With all the rains here in North Texas lately many of the lake spillways are overflowing.
Friday evening a couple was out jet skiing on Lake Lewisville when they apparently missed the warning signs and flew right over the spillway. They had a perfect landing but the impact caused both of them to fly over the handles of the jet ski and into the water.
According to the video both are still in critical condition.

Re: Prayer for Kathryn’s team

Received a message from Kathryn’s mom tonight. Not much in the way of additional news but just encouragement to know that people are praying for the team.

I found the email list from Kathryn’s recent Uganda team trip and forwarded the request to them. I received a call from Jane Estrada (from the list) who said the whole team had been contacted, were praying, and were forwarding it on for their church to be praying.
We’ve been on the phone or on the computer most of the day contacting anyone and everyone to be praying. We know of at least 3 churches who have this on their prayer chains. We still don’t know what all is going on and/or what might happen when their day begins in about 3 hours from now (approximately 10 p.m. CST). One thing for sure, Kathryn and her team are being COVERED in prayer and the protection of the Lord Jesus Christ!
Ron (Kathryn’s dad) found this verse and I wanted to share it with you:

But let all who take refuge in YOU be glad; let them ever sing for joy.
Spread YOUR protection over them, that those who love YOUR name may rejoice in YOU.
For surely, O LORD, YOU bless the righteous;
YOU surround them with YOUR favor as with a shield.
Psalm 5:11-12

Hallelujah and Praise His Holy, Mighty, Awesome Name!
I’m sure I’ve missed some from the distribution list above. Therefore, if you think of anyone else to send this prayer request to… please do! Thank so much. We will let you know when a new update is received.

Urgent prayers for Kathryn’s team

I received this email from Matt today, regarding Kathryn’s time in Russia.

Kathryn texted me today. She does not have a computer to send any thing out right now. PLEASE PRAY. I don’t know whats going on. This is what she was saying…
“Keep praying!!! I wish I could tell you more. The caregiver at the orphanage is calling government officials. Many investigations continues tomorrow. KEEP PRAYING SPREAD THE NEWS”
“VBS is canceled tomorrow. We will hide or leave when the government is here. This could affect all Buckner’s work in Russia and directors job of orphanage who let us come”
“also PRAY FOR Svetlana the care giver who is calling the government PRAY FOR HER HEART”
Sunday I had a pulling on my heart to pray for Kathryn, some of it I was scared at the time. I talked (to) Kathryn yesterday and she said they went to a new orphanage that day and were going to spend a week doing VBS. She said one (of) the care givers didn’t want her kids to participate with them.
The last text I got today was “there something very big going on in this place Can’t describe it but there is definitly something stirring in me”
Please pray for my friend Kathryn. God knows whats going on, pray for God’s wisdom and believe in His power that in already in control. Pray for there protection…..
