Building Project Prayer Requests:
Praise the Lord for guiding us through the site drainage and budget issues. Please continue praying as we move onto the next phase in the process. The final building plans are scheduled to be completed by the first week in October; at that time they will be sent out to contractors for pricing. Please pray that the bidding process goes well, and Thomas and the building committee are able to choose the best contractors at the right price. With the Lord’s help we hope to be on or under budget.
Praise the Lord for the continued strong interest by one of the churches in preparing an offer to purchase our current building. We continue to pray that the Lord will bring forward the right buyer at the right price for our 201 Scurfield property.

Prayer for those impacted by Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma
Hurricane Harvey began wreaking havoc in Texas Friday, Aug. 25, when the Category 4 storm made landfall. As it moved across southeast Texas and into Louisiana, it downgraded to a tropical storm, dropping record rainfall and causing widespread flooding.
A "potentially catastrophic" Hurricane Irma is currently roaring toward northeastern Caribbean islands as a Category 5 storm. Please pray for the areas impacted as various humanitarian organizations respond to help people affected by the storm.
Pray for families to reunite. With cell towers down in many areas, families are separated and have not been able to communicate with each other. Pray that as families seek help, they’re able to also reunite and stay in touch with loved ones.
Pray for children. It’s easy to be scared when you’ve been displaced from your home or even lost your home altogether. Pray for comfort for children, as many are sleeping in shelters amongst strangers or without a favorite blanket or stuffed animal that may have calmed them if it was available. Pray also for the safety of displaced children, as chaos is a key time for predators to seek vulnerable children.
Pray for aid workers and first responders. In the wake of a natural disaster, communication can be challenging, roads can be unpassable, and plans can be hard to execute as new obstacles develop. Pray for the people who are working to rescue families in trouble as well as those who are administering medical aid and distributing relief supplies.
Pray for the clean-up work. With several feet of water dumped across the regions affected, clean-up efforts will be extensive as the water recedes. Pray for wisdom for the leaders organizing the efforts and for safety as workers encounter hidden and emerging dangers.
Pray for those who lost loved ones. As workers have helped rescue people this week, the death toll has also risen. Pray for families who have lost someone and are grieving on top of all the other problems they face right now.

My dad has been doing really well health wise through the chemo that he was recieving.

We appreciate continued prayer for health, strength, and for good news. We also praise God for how well my dad has been doing!!! Thank you for to all who have asked about my dad and for praying!!
