Prayer Focus
Today, let’s pray for all the support staff at local schools which includes bus drivers, paras, office workers, nurses, etc. It takes many people to keep the school system going! Let’s pray the 2025-2026 school year is the best yet for them.
“Others”
Today, let’s pray for “others” who are facing medical appointments and related changes in their lives. We often have changes we didn’t plan for or hope for, but they come into our lives anyway. Pray for good options and good transitions. May we be less self-centered and more concerned for other people. In many cases, we may be able to identify needs and take actions. Let’s be the “hands and feet” if and when needed by others.
Pine Ridge Bible Study
We are preparing for our new ladies’ Bible study which begins in September. It’s not too late to decide to join us. Kathey Wales is the teacher. We meet at Pine Ridge. If you need more information, I’ll be glad to assist you.
Hymn/Song Titles
Did you write the names of songs that strengthen your walk with God a couple weeks ago? I did. I still have them placed all around the house. I see many of them every day. They are good reminders to pause and pray. I’m going to keep them where they are for a while. They serve good purposes in my daily prayer live.
Thank-you for reading and praying today.
