We got our snow Friday and it was so pretty and we enjoyed it so much. I still want it to snow on a school day for the children to get out of school. The snow was just right, here today, gone tomorrow. It was soft and fluffy and not mixed with rain. J.W. made us some snow ice cream. It was so good. ƒ Sardis Baptist Church enjoyed a wonderful message by George Pate Sunday morning in the absence of Rev. Jim Newsome. Family night was held in the annex with a fellowship meal and mission meetings. Prayer meeting is held every Wednesday evening at the Echols Home at 5:30 p.m. ƒThe chili supper at Sardis Saturday evening was very successful with good attendance, wonderful fellowship, and a delicious meal.

Terry Kenney, the new pastor, brought a very interesting and inspiring message.
