Glad We Did That

Prayer Labs were last night, and despite cold temps and wind (what happened to fall?), we had nearly 40 people participate in the prayer times at locations around the city. It's a risk to ask people to pray in a public place, and I wasn't sure if anyone would show up, but thank you to all who did! Our prayer time at Highland High was good, even if we punctuated each request with a sniffle.

When we got back, I felt like we needed to share what, if anything, God might have said to us while we were praying. I was really glad I asked, because there were several important messages people received about prayer. Praying for the government more often, praying on location more regularly, just lots of encouraging messages about prayer.

Praying for the Church in the Portneuf Valley and for FBC in particular was also very good, a reminder that we are not alone in our mission here, and that we need to pray for the other churches and their effectiveness right along with ours.

Lastly, praying for the team going to New Orleans was a blessing. I know there is an adventure waiting for us down there, and I'm glad there are people praying, both now and during the trip, for our success in ministry and our safe return.

I'm glad we took the time to pray. It's important that we do it, and important that we do it together as a church family. Again, thanks to all who participated, and if you missed it, we'll do it again sometime.

See y'all when I get back from New Orleans!!
