Homeschooling Family Seeks to Sell Beautiful House in Beaufort, SC

Please click here: 46 Butler Farm Road to see the information on this FSBO home. butler farm

Dear church family,

Greetings from Indiana! We hope this finds everyone well as you prepare for the holiday season.  We are doing great and have adjusted to life here in Indiana. Our Creator put on a spectacular display this fall. The colors were absolutely amazing! Winter has begun its course and we look forward to hitting the slopes soon. Even as I write, the snow is falling!

It was so nice to get the opportunity to fellowship and see so many of you while we were in town. It was truly good for the soul, we’ve missed you. To those of you whom we missed, we look forward to next time God crosses our paths. Your prayers for our family have been greatly appreciated these past two years. It is encouraging looking back on God’s provision and planning, down to the tiniest detail. Chris’s transfer to the government side of the radar business is now official. This opportunity is a huge answer to prayer, one that has shown itself two other times, but God said, “No, Indiana is where I want you.” So, here we are! With that comes the decision to “close up shop” there in Beaufort and buy a house here in Indiana.

God provided us with great renters these past two years and He has also provided them a new place to relocate to sooner than anticipated.  So, there is no time like the present to sell our house. Our desire and prayer is to sell it as soon as possible to avoid the obvious expenses.

It has always been our prayer that our house and the land would be used to glorify God and that the owners would be good stewards and use it to further His kingdom. That is why I’ve attached a flier with information about our home and would ask that you forward it to those whom you feel would be interested. It’s an opportunity to purchase it before we do costly upgrades. I have nothing against realtors, but it would be in the best interest of both parties if we could sell it FSBO. We appreciate all of your prayers in this next step. We know God has a marvelous plan of provision. Continue to run the race and may the peace of a God be with you!

In the love of Christ,

The Carters

Community Service Project for Kids Fit – Bring Frozen Chickens – Woman’s Life

Dear Parents,fit kids logo

As you know, in addition to our Kid’s Life Fitness program, your children have been working on community service projects this year. We made placemats for Meals on Wheels for Thanksgiving, pencil holders and cards for the CBC Food Pantry, and we are sponsoring and decorating (the children have been making the ornaments) a Christmas tree for The Friends of Caroline Hospice as well. Our theme for the tree is “The Fruit of the Spirit.” As part of the process in acquainting our children with self-sacrifice and community service, we are asking each family, if possible, to bring a frozen chicken for the CBC Food Pantry to the Woman’s Life meeting on November 12th. We will have collection bins available in the fellowship hall of the children’s building. We are suggesting that the children help to contribute to the cost of the chicken. There are seven people in my family, so I am planning on each family member’s $1 donation, which should cover the cost. We are asking for chickens because our food pantry clientele prefer chickens over large turkeys. If you have any questions call or text me at 592-0528.

Thanks!

Ministry Benefit for East Africa – October 17th – Book Signing

From John and Janie Chitester – Divine Musings

We are hosting a evening event at our home where Gloria Singleton will be signing her newest book, Divine Musings. John and I have laughed, cried and enjoyed this book together so much as we have been reading our way through it. Her insight and ability to pull the scriptures into her writings are great!

We will be receiving part of the proceeds from the book to benefit the ministry in East Africa. We will also have available many art pieces from a local Ugandan artist for sale as well as much African jewelry and a few Rwandan baskets. All the profits from the baskets go to “Bible for Africa”, a project to get bibles into the hands of pastors and their parishioners in Africa.

Below is a formal invite and an article from the Island Packet about our friend and author Gloria Singleton. If you don’t know her yet, I hope you will come out and meet her and preview or buy her book. We will have light refreshments. Mark the date October 17th, Friday night from 7- 830, drop in anytime. Bring your best friend and come! All are welcome!

Blessings,
John and Janie

Marine Master Sgt. George Albert Jackson will Posthumously Receive the Congressional Gold Medal on Thursday, Oct. 2 at Helena Place Senior Living

Retired Marine Master Sgt. George Albert Jackson will posthumously receive the Congressional Gold Medal on Thursday, Oct. 2, at 11 a.m. at Helena Place Senior Living in Port Royal. His widow, Ella J. Jackson, will accept the award for her late husband. The late Master Sgt. Jackson is receiving the honor for being a Montford Point Marine. The Montford Point Marines were among the first African Americans in the United States Marine Corps who overcame racial prejudice to serve in WWII, Korea and Vietnam, paving the way for full racial integration of the U.S. Marine Corps. He volunteered to enter the Marine Corps on June 22, 1942.

In 1942, Montford Point Camp was established as the World War II recruit training site for all African American Marines. At its height, approximately 20,000 Marines walked through the camp’s gate to attend recruit training. It wasn’t until 1949 that President Harry Truman issued executive order 9981, which effectively ended segregation in the military. Master Sgt. Jackson retired on March 31, 1969. Following his service, Master Sgt. Jackson became a founding member of the Montford Point Marine Association, Inc., Beaufort chapter and sat as vice president in 1973. The Montford Point Marine Association, Inc., a non-profit veteran organization, was founded in 1965 to memorialize the first African Americans to serve in the United States Marine Corps.

The Congressional Gold Medal is the nation’s highest civilian honor. It is awarded to persons who have performed achievements that have had an impact on American history that is likely to be recognized as a major achievement in the recipient’s field long after the achievement. It is not to be confused with the Medal of Honor, which is the nation’s highest military honor.

The late retired Master Sgt. Jackson served in the U.S. Army prior to joining the Marine Corps. He served in WWII, the Korean War and Vietnam. A native of Long Island, NY, he died on July 18, 1987 and is interred at Beaufort National Cemetery. In addition to his widow Ella, age 93, several other family members and members of the Montford Point Marine Association, Inc. will attend the ceremony.

A buffet luncheon will follow the award presentation at Helena Place Senior Living, 1624 Paris Ave., Port Royal, SC 29935. The public is invited to attend this prestigious awards ceremony and reception. Please call (843) 252-3001 or e-mail rewing@enlivant.com with questions.
