prayer request

I would like to add a prayer request to our class list for a young lady named Faith. She is a sister of one of my co-workers who is having twins and is currently on bed rest since this past weekend. She is on medication to stop the contractions. She is only 31 weeks today (Wednesday July 8). They would like her to make it to 33-34 week before she has the boys.

Her sister's name is Amber.

Thanks Lynne

Prayer Request from Church Office

Dear Friends,

I am sending this Prayer Request because we have been asked to start the Prayer Chain and at this time we do not have an official church prayer chain. If you cannot participate at this time that is okay – just delete.

The request is from Gary Quinn and is for Jay Howell. He is a young man who works with Gary and just had a stroke.

Thank you so much and God Bless you,

Linda [Mayes]

(Krystal - It looks like the invitations worked well. Thanks)

Sunday July 6th

This week there were not very many of us present so, we didn't accomplish much with the lesson. I did try to get this blog figured out so that other classmates can blog as well. Please let me know how it works or what to change.

Some praises and prayers were for:
Matt and Erin had their baby Miah on July 4th
Brad's mom Sherri has tests on Tuesday
Kurt and Carla traveling
Youth mission trip this week
Brad's cousins Bobby and Angie having a c-section Friday
Brad's cousin Wendy who is pregnant
Mike's sister got moved
Bryan's uncle broke his back
Bryan and Robin coming home on Saturday

Please read the sermon for lesson #6 for next Sunday. See you then!

Sunday June 29th

Prayer requests:
VBS
Isaac not feeling well
Tim's mom
Jen's mom
The Lashley's travelling
Kyle and Keely travelling

We finished up lesson 5 and started lesson 6 on Justification. We'll discuss the questions and the sermon on Sunday. Also, we talked at the beginning about the Sunday School series called Financial Peace University and everyone seemed to support getting involved with that. Here is a little description. The program is called Financial Peace University (http://www.daveramsey.com/fpu/home/) and sounds like a "Money Matters" type of program - Christian based, financially focused. We'll figure out how to pay for it when we get some more information on it. I'll also try to talk to Rev. Larry about sponsoring him in his bike trip from DC to Pittsburgh.

Sunday June 22nd

Today we started into the sermon in Lesson #5 on being an almost Christian. We will finish discussing it next week and start into Lesson #6.

Some prayers and praises this week were for:
Matt and the Lashley family going to Columbus
CYF camp
Micah, Addie, Tim, Jen and Jane for the upcoming week
The Dawson family recovering from the storm
The Miller family traveling
Trish's parents traveling
Brad's mom's appointment on Tuesday
Trish's sister and her new hobby
Matt did good at work
Erin and Matt expecting a baby really soon
Lisa doing well
Todd and Jen's wedding last week and for them visiting with us on Sunday
Tim's mom, Jane

This week read the beginning section of Lesson #6 for next Sunday. Hope that you all have a great week!

Sunday June 8th

We actually forgot our bible at church that has all of our prayers and praises in it. So, I believe that we may be starting into lesson #5 next sunday. See you next Sunday!

Sunday June 1st
