Planted by Streams

He is like a tree planted by streams of water which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers. Psalm 1:3
Refreshment and nourishment in the LORD are available in many ways around the Countryside Fellowship. The Encouraging Words Bookstore is one great place to find just this. As the Body finds itself increasingly in the spot of "craving spiritual milk," as 1 Peter exhorts, the bookstore offers a place to learn and dive deeper into God's Word.

Remember to pray for this ministry and LaVerne Wheeler as she oversees it. Several needs that LaVerne has suggested to lift in prayer are that:

  • People would take advantage of the great opportunity and blessing that the bookstore provides to be ministered to by the Word
  • Guidance would be given to those serving as they are attentive to the LORD in how to encourage and fellowship with those who enter the bookstore
  • God would raise up people in the Body to serve in this ministry
