My recorder is still at church, so I’m just going to try to remember at least some of what was on it since we have some urgent prayer needs.

We were all thankful for opportunities to enjoy time with family over the Christmas holiday.  Ruth had a good week.

Cathy requested from Facebook that we pray for Ronna G. She used to work for Cathy at AT&T and she has now been diagnosed with ALS.  Anita requested that we pray for her son Terrance and aunt Margaret.  Edith was out sick.  Pray for Priscilla as she continues to battle illness and has hurt her knee again.  I’ve also been told that someone ran into the church van wile it was parked at her house and repairs are needed.  Keep praying for Kimi as well.  Mary’s two youngest were also home sick.  Lisa is starting chemotherapy again as more cancer has been found.  Without it they gave her six months. Annette Freeman has passed away.  Keep Kay in your prayers.

Sometimes it’s hard to understand what’s happening to us, but we choose to trust the Lord.  Pray for our church, that we will have wisdom in this time of testing, that we will learn and grow, that the Lord will show us the way to be the church that He intends, illuminating the darkness with the light of His love.
