Praying about your part?



One month ago, I gave a challenge to pray for three things at our church...to care about God's glory about our private pursuits...for revival in our church and city...to discover what part God would have us as individuals play in His great work.

If we are to have an impact in our city for Jesus' sake, consider involvement in one of the following opportunities:
  • Prayer at the abortion mill this Tuesday, Mar. 10, for 6 -7 AM.
  • ECFA Foster Care
  • Safe Families for Children - a temporary (3 months max.) pre-foster care program
  • STUFF - Mentoring parents of children in the foster care program
  • Rockford Rescue Mission - leading Bible studies and mentoring guys, serving meals, childcare for women.
  • Tutoring Club - providing meals, becoming a tutor of elementary kids
  • Children's Hunger Fund - delivering food to needy families on weekly basis
  • Summer Outreach to Chicago (June 22-26) - Still room for more on the team
  • Foreign Exchange Students - open your home to one
  • Spring Clean - Helping our church neighbors in cleaning up their yards - date TBA.
"But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare." (Jer. 29:7)
