Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

County Line kids are enjoying the snow as it arrived with wind Monday morning. Some of us who have downed trees and no power are not as happy. We loved the temps of 70+ the past week. Only in North Carolina can the weather go from a high of 74 temp one day to a high of 45 and a few inches of snow the next day.
The Baptist Men of Society will meet at 7 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 8. The men invite others for breakfast and prayer. They will be discussing upcoming projects and community needs.
Our community sends congratulations to Pastor Brandon and Leslie Gwaltney of Pleasant View Baptist upon the birth of their daughter Esther Grace. Weighing 7lb. 10 oz., she arrived safely Wednesday of last week under the special care of the medical staff at UNC Memorial Hospital in Chapel Hill.
We send get-well wishes to Rayford McDaniel, who has been in Iredell Memorial Hospital. Harvey Williams has improved and has been recuperating at home since Wednesday of last week. Bessie T. Josey remains at Davis Regional Medical Center. Alice C. Waugh remains in rehab at Davie Nursing and Rehabilitation Center of Mocksville. Join us in prayer for the Lord’s divine healing upon Rayford, Harvey, Bessie, Alice, and other residents who are having health problems.
Remember in prayer Stan and Shelly Stroud and Dwight Moose. Shelly’s mother Angie Combs Wilcox died Thursday of last week. Dwight’s sister Wilma Moose Nash died Wednesday of last week. Continue to remember in prayer the many families in our area affected by the coronavirus and its variants. As of last Monday, our state daily positive test rate had sky-rocketed to 27.4 percent with almost 13, 000 new cases.
