Friday

“Create in me a pure heart, O God,

and renew a steadfast spirit within me.”

~Psalm 51:10~

Continue to pray for Andy and Betty Taylor as he has medicine adjusted, injections in Betty’s eyes (only one yesterday), and other aches and pains.  They seem to have had more than their share in the last few years.

Susan Rimes is doing better and plans to attend Bible study this morning.  Let’s pray she continues to feel well.

Please continue to pray for Debbie Bales and her family.  Debbie’s mother, sister, and brother-in-law are all sick at the same time.  Pray she does well dealing with all these situations plus the normal stresses of life.

Hope Center

The training yesterday morning went very well.  More volunteers than expected attended the meeting.  What a great response!  More volunteers will be needed though to keep the ministry open daily.  If interested, I’m confident you will get a good report from those who got information and a tour yesterday morning.  If you are able to help, please do so.  You will be blessed!  I’ll help anyone who wants to get connected.  Rest assured, that the message of Jesus will be shared at Hope Center.  It will be a place to find something greater than food and clothing.

Sunday is the first Sunday of the month.  That means it is the day to take frozen food in quart sized bags.  I’ll have ice chests in my Sunday School room ready for you to deposit your items.  I have spoken with the family.  They feel so blessed just to know we love them and want to help them in this way.

I don’t like to ask for prayer for our world and our country every day, but events in our world and here in America are a daily reminder of how far our world is from Heaven is so many ways.  Take some time away from current events and focus on heaven today.  Pray people will be ready to face eternity because, one way or another, we will all do that one day.
