Carmen Serdan Mission Team

And they're off . . .

The Mission Team that will be ministering at The Mission at Carmen Serdan are making their way to and will be in Mexico this week. Those ministering are: Maia Benson, Tom Burns, Holly Burns, Kara Chikeles, Cherylee Dawson, Jacob Dawson, Jared Dawson, Jessica Dawson, John-Mark Dawson, Jeff Deleon, Nathan Fieguth, Laura Harley, Jo-Anna Lockhart, Mike Masonic, Hannah Morton, Ethan Pannier, Joan Pannier, Jesse Sallas, Kitty Sallas, James Stephens, Cameron Sweeney, Amy Telfer, Jenna Wood, and Travis Wood.

Please pray for the Mission Team this week:

• Pray for the safety of both the group and individuals as they travel.
  
• Pray that each member in the group would be filled with the Spirit and that His work would overflow to others as the team ministers the way the LORD would have them.
  
• Pray that the leadership would know the LORD's strength, guidance, and leading throughout the trip.

Ephesians 3:20-21

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

Ephesians 3:20-21

Prayer for Israel

PRAY FOR TRUE PEACE IN ISRAEL

"Peace be upon Israel." Psalm 128:5b
Israelis are being evacuated from their homes in Gaza, and our fervent prayer for them is needed in a very real way to show them the LORD's love. Israel is at a time of chaos, discouragement, unrest, and it seems anything but peace; however God still loves His people and has a hope and a future for them.

Remember them in your prayers especially today.

Pray for their safety
Pray that they would know Jesus as their Savior. . .their Prince of Peace

Always Praying for the Saints. . .

"All your sons shall be taught by the LORD, and great shall be your children's peace." Isaiah 54:13

How encouraging to know that the LORD is actively at work in the lives of our our children. They are HIS creation! He cares for them and wants them to grow up to know and love Him. Wouldn't you assume that He anxiously awaits to hear our prayers on their behalf?

To help us as we pray for our kids, Rebecca Carmichael, our Children's Ministry Coordinator, has provided specific requests for us to consider as we intercede for them:

• That Christian homes would be provided for our foster children who are in the adoption processes

• For people in the Body that would help in teaching Sunday School and serving in the nursery

• For preparation of the kids that are getting ready for the next school year
