Lord, Hear Our Prayers! (The Week of June 15, 2020)

Hi Family!!! 

 

We have only a few days before we get together in person for worship! And we are so excited about our gathering in our sanctuary again this coming Sunday! This morning, interestingly, we lost our telephone connection so we were not able to call or receive phone calls from others. We didn’t have an internet connection because of it. Lots of things were on hold until we got the line back to normal. What an inconvenience in this fast moving technological era!

 

As I have waited for the recovery of our telephone line from the telephone company, I thought about our connection with God and one another for the last three months dealing with COVID 19. Not very easy! Frustration, stress, fear, anxiety, loneliness, sense of loss and more…

 

However, we are slowly getting back to normal following some safe guidelines - wearing masks, keeping social distance and limiting singing hymns and fellowship. Even though our worship gathering at the sanctuary will not be the same as before COVID 19, we are looking forward to that day! And we will continue to worship in spirit and truth.

 

So now we will continue to journey with Christ Jesus taking steps each week. So here they are!

 

1. Take a little moment of meditation on Romans 5:6, “Just the right time” each day this week.

2. Memorize Matthew 10:2-4 today.

3. Sing with Psalm 116 each day this week. 

4. Pray for the missionaries around the world this week.

5. Be a laborer for the harvest (spiritual) from today.

6. Stand up for Jesus from today.

 

Now we will continually put the recordings of our worship and other events through YouTube, Facebook and Tweeter. Also if you are not comfortable to come for in-person worship, you can join us through ZOOM on Sunday 9:20 a.m. for worship, and on Wednesday 6:00 p.m. for midweek Praise and Prayer, or any other open gatherings. And if you do not have internet access, you can also join us through Zoom in our regular worship and gathering hours to listen.

  

Now we have our prayer list updated for this week. Let us continue to call upon the name of the Lord as we take next steps together… as one body!

Looking forward to seeing you all this coming Sunday!

 

Be clean and keep your safe distance from every unseen enemy around us!!
