Psalms 31:5-6 NIV Into your hands I commit my spirit; deliver me, Lord, my faithful God. I hate those who cling to worthless idols; as for me, I trust in the Lord.

Zoom
We continue to have class both in the classroom and on Zoom. We have Zoom for those of CUC who prefer to stay at home or who are away from home. CUC is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting:
Topic: CUC Zoom Meeting – March 17, 2024
Time: 9:30 AM Eastern time
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9712823041
Meeting ID: 971 282 3041
Note from the Tech Team to Zoom Participants
Last Sunday, Zoom service was lost due to a momentary malfunction of the Zoom servers. If that happens in the future, your best action is to wait about a minute and then log in again. If service has been restored, you will be reconnected to the class. Other helpful hints: 1. Just before class starts, mute your microphone to prevent noise from your household from reaching the classroom. 2. Log in between 9:25 and 9:40 so that the Tech Team has time to test the set up and load lesson materials. Thanks.

Prayer Requests
Pray for Katherine Simons who this afternoon ( Friday ) will undergo a robotic bypass surgery on a main coronary artery and Monday have repair of other arteries with stents. Craig states ” We already see God at work here, through His identifying the problem before any heart damage as well as surrounding us with experts and staff that are amazing. The surgeon was the pioneer of this robotic surgery. Keep the prayers going tomorrow and this weekend!”
Linda Cantrell and her familyas they recover from injuries from car accident.
Joyce Michno Pray for a good recovery following recent fall
Doug Tatom for relief of back pain which was not much helped by recent epidural
From the Lanhams: We want to thank all of you for your prayers, calls and emails about our granddaughter, Patricia. As of this moment late Thursday afternoon, she is still in the hospital but expecting the doctors to come by and release her. They diagnosed her condition with inflammation of the kidneys, saying the UTI infection caused the kidneys to get inflamed resulting in the excruciating pain in her back. Please continue to remember her in prayer. Thank you so much, Patsy and Bill
Ongoing prayers
Shirley May for relief of back pain
Edna Smith at the Phoenix at Milton
