Just thought the ladies would enjoy hearing the latest from my women's group ministries.
Saturday, the ladies went to the Baptist Convalescent Center and Hospice to sing hymns and pray with the residents. Sister Lucille Hunnicutt always brings her portable piano and we go into the dining room for a short service and singing.
Sister Robertine Smith was in the middle of singing "How Great Thou Art," when one of the residents yelled out, "Hey, lady! Show us your (I can't say the word). Well, Sister Smith was so taken aback she could barely get through the chorus, especially the high notes.
Sister Mabel Carter was praying with a nigra woman and the woman started speaking in tongues. I've never seen Mabel run so fast. We all shared a good laugh over that one.
We went to the hospice side of the building and prayed for all the dying. Suddenly one of the residents there asked the pastor's wife a question. "If you pray for me, will I still die?" Mrs. Pastor thought a moment and then said, "Well, yes - when God decides it's time." The woman became angry and accused us of being hypocrites. Sister Mabel told the pastor's wife to cut the power to the woman's breathing machine, but we all thought that wouldn't be a Baptist thing to do. Still, the nerve, calling us hypocrites.
Everyone enjoyed Sister Carlita Gonzalez's taquitas with hot sauce.
Do pray for these souls. They reek of urine and can have the most cantankerous dispositions. Pray for the residents of the nursing home, too.
