We’re only six weeks away from the from the annual reunion and everything is on schedule and going in full force. We are so thankful for our family and even more thankful that God is bringing us together once again as a family.

There is only a little bit of reunion news to report this week. You will find the solicitation business list attached and so far no donations, we still have a few weeks more to allow them to respond.

The registration process have picked up immensely, now if we could just get those other 30 something family members to send their registration fees in we will be in business. Also when sending in your registration form, please list all family members that are planning to attend. This is so important because as you know we will be having breakfast prepared for us on Sunday morning and we need to know how many to prepare for. In the past so many family member promise to attend Sunday morning service and have dinner thereafter, but they don’t show up. This year we are trying something different, breakfast and a word for the Lord from our very own family member.

Linda Butler have agreed to help out in any way she can, thanks so much! We still are soliciting family members to sign up to cook a cake or prepare a special dessert. So far we have 4 cakes and we need about several more to complete the Friday’s and Saturday activities. I will be reaching way out to family members to ask to prepare a dessert.

JaQuan & Diane can you ask you mom to grace us with one her specialty cakes or desserts? It’s a couple more folks out there that will be called upon real soon. So be on the lookout.

In closing may God continue to bless each and every one of you!
