Remember these in your daily prayers that they might be better and for any others that need prayers.

Some families are involved in the state level of ball tournaments and so lots of ball practices are going on, please keep these families in your prayers for safe travels to and from the events and safety for the players, coaches, and others involved.

The library has lots of interesting things going on during the summer, from story times for different ages and special events, and especially the upcoming event at the City Parking Lot. Check out their web site or even face book to see all the events going on. Children will love these events.

Praying for your family that you get to spend time with family during the upcoming holiday and be safe. Hope all of you have a great week and a good weekend and if traveling be safe.
