Dear Church Family,
Would you do two things for me as you read this post?
#1: Would you read through it and put any of the various opportunities that relate to you on your calendar?
#2: Also, would you please pray for each item as you go?
Be encouraged by this reminder on prayer from Andrew Murray (1828-1917):
“Each time, before you intercede, be quiet first, and worship God in His glory. Think of what He can do, and how He delights to hear the prayers of His redeemed people. Think of your place and privilege in Christ, and expect great things!”

Bonus, bonus item: I want to invite my entire church family to Samuel’s high school graduation party Saturday May 23rd from 2-5PM at our home (1680 9th Street in Marion)!
Your prayers, love, and support have been a huge blessing for Samuel and our whole family. Come celebrate with us!
I look forward to worshiping with you this Lord’s Day.
Under grace,
Pastor Matt
