Prayer request

Folks – please pray for Libby Cochrane.  She went in to Saline Hospital on Wednesday night with some chest pains and after they did a stress test, the results were not conclusive, so they sent her to St. Joe’s for some additional tests (a heart cath).  They’re hoping that it is nothing, but doctors said it could be a narrowing of an artery.

 

Also – Barb Bishop called yesterday and said that her granddaughter (Joy’s daughter) went in for tests (MRI) for some severe pain and an unknown problem.

 

Thanks for keeping your church family in prayer.

 

Don’t forget about the Missions Breakfast on Sunday morning at 9:15am!   Have a good day.

Prayer Request

Folks – wanted to add that I’d like you to pray for Harold Jeffrey this next couple of weeks.  He will be going in for triple-bypass heart surgery on October 24th.  He’s in good spirits and is trusting God for his care, but would like prayer for him as he goes through this and the time it will take for recovery.  Let him know you’re praying for him and Elsie.

This weekend - Missions!

Hey folks – wanted to encourage you to come to the Missions Emphasis day on Sunday!  We are having great speakers and good food.  We will be hearing from a Palestinian Christian (Nicola) who grew up in Bethlehem (Israel) and is currently attending U of M.  He is a very unique individual!  He’ll be talking about the difficult situation in the Middle East.  We’ll also be hearing from Norm and Louis Barnard – our missionaries to Asia.  They are transferring back to the states and have some great insight on the changes in the Asian World.

 

Here’s the schedule:

9:15am – Hot Breakfast Buffet in the Fellowship Hall

9:45am – Mission Session #1:  Nicola – “Missions in the Arab World”

11:00am – Mission Session #2:  Norm Barnard – “Missions in the Asian World”

6:00pm – Dessert Fellowship (Bring a dessert to share)

6:00pm – Mission Session #3:  Panel Discussion – Norm, Louise and Nicola:  “What’s next in Missions?”

 

Don’t miss any of these!  Remember that we are collecting your Faith Promise Cards this Sunday.  Pray about how much you’d like God to give through you this year and then we will pray together to see it happen.

 

Invite a friend to these special meetings!

 

See you Sunday!
