Grandchildren!
Easter morning breakfast will be served Easter Sunday Morning at 9:45AM at Midway M. B. Church Fellowship Hall. There will be no early morning service just regular service after breakfast. This will be the first sit down meal that has been served at church since the beginning of the pandemic. Hope that you come and enjoy Easter Sunday Morning with us.
The grandchildren went fishing last weekend and really enjoyed themselves. They had a blast. The youngest of the pile Josiah “Mini-me” caught the most fish with a bamboo pole. You should have seen him jumping up and down at bringing a bream out.
Thomas and Dr. Locord Wilson spent the weekend in Houston and Dallas enjoying their grandchildren Jayla and Tamyra. Jayla played Sebastian in the play “The Little Mermaid” in Houston. It played Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with multiple showing on Saturday. Tamyra participated in a Level 7 Gymnastic event in Dallas also over the weekend and won ribbons. To me Tamyra will be the next great Simone Biles.
Do not forget the Century Family Reunion this year. It will be the first time held since before the Pandemic. It will be held in Houston, Texas on June 24, 25th and 26th. The Greers and Wilsons will be hosting the reunion this year. You may go to the Century Family Reunion website to register and book your hotel room.
