But love your enemies,
do good to them,
and lend to them without expecting to get anything back.
Then your reward will be great,
and you will be children of the Most High,
because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.
~Luke 6:35~

Today’s prayer focus
Today, let’s pray for younger and middle age adults who do not have Jesus in their hearts. Frequently, they do not raise their children to attend church and learn about Jesus. This breaks my heart. Please pray for them and their children.
Operation Christmas Child
October and the first weeks of November are especially busy getting all the shoeboxes packed, collecting the shoeboxes for our area , and getting everything turned in to the next location before they make their way to Dallas and then on to children all around the world. It is not too late to volunteer to help.
