Post Thanksgiving

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent the day, as we have for the past fifteen years or so, in Pontotoc at the home of Paul and Laney Sims. Tip, that's what we call him, is, as many of you may know, the pastor of First Baptist in Nettleton.

Happy Thanksgiving

Wishing all you Pilgrims a Happy Thanksgiving from these little Indians and from Carole and me.

First Baptist Plantersville Children

Brother Danny's wife, Karen, send this picture with these comments: "I am enclosing attaching a picture of some members of the childrens handbell choir who shopped and filled 11 shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. The boxes will be shipped to under privileged children around the world.

Just a note for you, the Tinker Bells were the first handbell group we started with 2-3 grade girls. We have started a second group, "The Joyful Noise" with 1-3 grade boys and girls. The two groups combined become "The Praise Players." The Praise Players will be playing the prelude and postlude for the Community Thanksgiving Service this Sunday night at New Zion Baptist Church."

Hair Styles

Isn't it interesting how styles, especially hair styles for boys, have changed over the years. I'm guessing that this picture was taken ca. 1984. Anyone know for certain?

Flexing

Is This a Choir

These young people appear to be singing or preparing to do so or is this just a group shot?
