JIM & JUDY TURNER
welcome you to CASA BLANCA (White House in Spanish), our small
piece of real estate on the World Wide Web that proves that we exist in cyberspace. Whitehouse is just 8 miles south of Tyler, nestled in the towering pines of East Texas. In the early years of the steam engines, most of the trains coming from the south would stop just before getting to Tyler to take on water and a fresh supply of wood. Since this required some time, many of the passengers would take the opportunity to get something to eat. The lady who lived next to the water tower (in the big whitewashed house)being both a very good cook and an businesswoman, would prepare meals. Thus departing passengers would tell the conductor, "We are going to get us a bite to eat at the WHITE HOUSE. Once the settlement grew, it became known as Whitehouse, Texas. (Probably more than you ever wanted to know.)
IF GOD SHOULD SPEAK, a different look at the Lord's Prayer, will provide you some thought provoking ideas to this frequently quoted passage. Thanks to my grade school friend Carmen Walker for sending me this. It was written by Clyde Lee Herring of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
THE CHOICE by Max Lucado is an excellent way to arrange your thoughts for the coming day. One of Elizabeth Elliott's devotionals had a neat story about a contact lens that was Lost and Found . After reading it, you may be more inclined to seek God for every aspect of yor life. Our church is in the midst of a huge building program. If you want to see what is going on at our church, visit Green Acres Baptist Church in Tyler. Judy & I both work in Youth Sunday School.
