Monday, August 3rd, is a Big Day for both the Harris family and ours and it’s part of the Morning 🌄 Brew !

Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Two cars 🚗 are about to head out on meaningful journeys. Marion Harris is preparing to drive 51 miles over to Ferrum College, as for the third time, he will be dropping off a daughter for her first day of college. 4 years await out Callie  ” Half Pint Harris.

I myself will be driving 120 miles southwest to the Charlotte Airport 🛫 to pick up my bride 👰‍♀ after a 4 month absence for medical reasons. Two different sets of emotions there.

Both Cindy Edwards and Shawn Montgomery are set to officially begin their tryouts in 🏐 and Cross Country

Here is to hoping that each and every student athlete involved has a positive experience !

Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌😇🙏

With a BIG assist from Mr Ron M, Vickey Ritchie, and our Special Olympics Athletes, had quite the weekend on The Hill !

Vickey Ritchie, to use a sports analogy, leaves it all out on the floor every time she attempts to make everyone feel at home. This weekend, with the assistance from Ron Mack ( abbreviated last name), Coach went Swim, Hoops, and Swim 🏊‍♂️!

Saturday afternoon, the group gathered at the Carroll Wellness Center for a swim party.

HILLSVILLE.

Sunday afternoon, it was back over to Hillsville Elementary School 🏫 for the normal 2pm basketball 🏀 practice. The number of folks in uniform was north of twenty, but Coach was absolutely up to the task of staying on top of all the joy.

Scooby-Doo was the weekly theme, and one highlight was listening 🎶 to Coach singing the shows theme song 🎵.

We were able to acknowledge Patrick Smith and his new role as an officer on the Galax Police force and celebrate multiple birthdays 🎂!

It was fitting that the game ended in a 26-26 👔 and as soon as the group closed out the practice with the ” One Team ” motto, most of the group packed up and headed back to the Wellness center for the bookend Swim 🏊‍♂️ party.

In just over 24 hours,  three times were created and themed in which everyone felt that they were accepted by others ! After all of that effort, Coach still had the energy to sort through hundreds of pics and share them on social media. Still yet, Vickey  then shared a few more with her neighborhood blogger !

Now, it’s 3am on Monday, and while most of the county is sleeping 😴💤, I’m sure in the back of Vickey’s mind, she is planning the next adventure !

We wake up today and prepare to say goodbye to July! Brother Osborne has his own version of the coffee ☕️ mug shot yoday.

Morning 🌄 Brew

Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

Psalm 31 In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

There are a number of folks who are struggling with real-life situations this morning 🌄 and the hope of the Morning Brew is to give them a pleasant diversion at the start of their day.

Thank you to Joel Osteen, Travis Osborne, and Howard Mayo for helping shape that very thought process !

Get up, get started, and know that you are not alone !

Have a Blessed Day 🙌😇🙏

The Morning 🌄 Brew for July 30th takes place in Lexington, Virginia, where there is a chill in the air.

Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Howard Mayo and his Motovational Nugget for the Day should appear here shortly !
Amen 🙏

Have a Blessed Day 🙌😇🙏
