Brother Lawrence made a commitment: "That we should establish ourselves in a sense of GOD'S Presence, by continually conversing with him. That it is a shameful thing to quite this conversation, to think of trifles and fooleries." Keep your conversation going all day with Jesus! Give a report on Sunday if you can!
1. Prayers - Please be in prayer for Jill Bennett as her mother passed on yesterday. Jill stated that her mom was in poor health and this was a blessing for her. She also stated that it is still difficult for her and her father who was married to her for 66 years. There will be a memorial service on Friday. Contact Jill for more details.
2. Homework? - I hope that you are continuing your month-long prayer commitment that we started 2 weeks ago. Which 2 did you choose?
- Keep a prayer journal
- Commit to pray on the hour
- Ask a new person each day how you can pray for them
- Each morning say: “God, what do you want me to do today?”
- Sign up and pray on the 24th for Muskegon and Muskegon County
3. Recycling - Each Sunday you are encouraged to keep the bulletin so that you are reminded to pray specifically for the needs that are listed on the back. However, if you do not wish to keep the bulletin, kindly place it on the table next to the doors on your way out. This way the bulletin can be recycled and we can re-use the Communication Cards. Thanks.
4. More prayer requests for the week- Please pray for:
- Summer vacation for our children. May the use of their time and energy be productive!
- The Beck's as they continue the adoption process.
- Pastor Matt's sister in law is still having difficulty with her coronary artery spasms and energy levels. She is on nitroglycerin and they hope that will help.
- Couples and their children who are part of a divorce process.
- Reyes' mom, Zoila, who has come up with some medical complications.
- Christians around the world being imprisoned and tortured for their beliefs. The mass killings of Christians in Iraq is just one location of many.
- Students (Jessica Ribbens, Osha Towers, and others) and adults going to Nicaragua for a mission trip at the end of this week.
- The SERVE Project that will be hosted at Calvin CRC in July. There is still a need for people with construction experience to serve as worksite supervisors.
- Paula Espinoza's friend Kim who is having difficulties selling her house and buying another one. Stress levels are rising!
- Lilia DuRose's mom in the Ukraine is having heart problems and health issues.
