The Prayer of Faith
13 Are any among you suffering? They should pray. Are any cheerful? They
should sing songs of praise. 14 Are any among you sick? They should call for
the elders of the church and have them pray over them, anointing them with oil
in the name of the Lord. 15 The prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord
will raise them up; and anyone who has committed sins will be forgiven. 16
Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that
you may be healed. The prayer of the righteous is powerful and effective. 17
Elijah was a human being like us, and he prayed fervently that it might not
rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. 18 Then
he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain and the earth yielded its harvest.
We are glad you have joined us this morning, and our hope is that through word,
music, fellowship and prayer, you will experience the presence of God today.
Please sign the Attendance Register as it is passed so that we can share with you
about what’s happening in the life of this church. Those who are interested in
joining First UMC are asked to contact Pastor Glenn at 336.751.2503.

The FUMC Mocksville Honduras Medical Mission Team returned home late on
February 15 after a very successful 10 days in Honduras. During that time we saw
over 1305 patients and distributed well over 4000 prescriptions. Each of our 13
team members want to thank our church for the prayers and support that we
received. A special thanks goes to those who arranged and supported the Mission
Committee fundraising meal, those who stayed after the meal and helped count
pills and to Jeff Clarke and Taylor and Kathy Slye for transportation to and from
the airport.
