The Lord’s Day Sunday, March 1, 2015
We begin a new week here in God’s House of Prayer to seek His
blessings. May God grant to all of us all we need both spiritually and
physically. Pastor Harry will be preaching on finding God’s strength in
our weakness. Pray that God would call us to seek Him in areas of
weakness in our lives, and that we would find His grace there.
We welcome The Unity and Smithville Christian High choirs who will be
joining us in worship for this service! We look forward to their ministry
among us and worshipping our Great God together this morning.
CHURCH FAMILY
Be an intercessor. All of us, young or old, can have an active ministry
of prayer. Lift up your fellow Christians before God’s throne of grace.
• Continue to uphold Connie Kistler in prayer as she continues to
heal from recent heart and lung issues. Pray for continued healing
and renewed strength
• Clara Bierman, at the time of writing, had been transferred to
Princess Margaret Hospital to resume chemo treatments. If all
went according to schedule, she may be able to return home for a
weekend pass. We pray for strength and healing.
• We continue to pray through our church directory. We are now
starting District 5 and uphold in prayer this week: We uphold Luke
