Good morning PCF, what an amazing group of people we have that make up our church, we are blessed. I have the honor of talking with many of you before and after service and I want to say that all of you make Sunday’s such a special day for me. I hope all of you feel the same every time you come and worship.
After yesterday’s service I received some really nice feedback so I think the message hit home with many of you. “I believe, please help my unbelief!” The bible has the ability to unlock spiritual pathways that you don’t even know exist yet, but are capable of changing your entire world view. The reason this happens is because the Holy Spirit who directed the writings of the bible speaks only of truth. Seek the truth in all things no matter where it leads because it is always the right path.
I received this prayer request last night please add to your prayers. Elsa, a 15 year old, has a recurrence of AML leukemia after a 6 month remission following years of treatments. She was diagnosed at age 6. There is nothing more the medical doctors can do. The family has asked for prayers for God’s healing and comfort.
Prayer is powerful! Prayer changes things. It doesn’t take long to pray for people. Be the conduit of God’s power….pray!
Our prayer list:
- Angie Miller, Angie is home and recuperating from her lung surgery she had this past Friday to remove a cancerous tumor. . She is awaiting her tests results from her lymph nodes that were removed.
- Guy Schmidt has been in the hospital since last Thursday and hopefully will be discharged today. He has had a lot of blood tests trying to figure out the high levels of ammonia in his blood. No results yet.
