Feed on Christ, and then go and live your life, and it is Christ in you that lives your life, that helps the poor, that tells the truth, that fights the battle, and that wins the crown.
-Philips Brooks
Kirt Hunt went home to be with His new-found LORD and Savior about a week and a half ago. Kirt was an unusual statistic – a man who found new life in Christ as his earthly life was drawing to a close. He has gone to join his wife around the throne praising God forever. Praise God that He welcomes one who accepted Him late in life with as much joy as one who accepted as a child. Please keep Dennis & Bette Hunt in prayer
Dennis Galloway is home and doing okay. There were some problems with low blood pressure, but he is better. Please continue to pray for a complete healing.

Please pray for Ivy Huff as she looks for another job.

74 people went on the Care Fresno beach trip. It was awesome! Three of the parents had never been to the ocean before. A whole slew of kids saw the ocean for the first time. I praise God for the privilege of serving Him through this ministry – even though it drives me nuts sometimes.

Holy God of Israel,
We have longed to be with You in the quietness of prayer, and finally we are here. Our words are so weak, Holy Spirit, search our hearts for the truth of what we are trying to say.
We pray for Bette & Dennis Hunt as they grieve the passing of Kirt. Comfort them with the sure knowledge that they will see him again – this is just a temporary parting.

You reign in splendor, Mighty God. You are our God and we are Your people of joy. We join all of creation to sing praises to You. We desire more than just a song of praise – we want our lives to be praise of You, our thoughts to be praise of You, and our actions to be praise of You.
Spirit of Life, touch the lives of those who continue on our prayer chain. Bless our pastors as they lead us on the paths that You would have us go. Bless our communities of faith as we serve You with joy and gratitude. We offer You everything that we have with open hands and willing hearts.

We thank You for the freedom that we have in this country and ask You to bless her again. But We thank You even more for the freedom that we have in You. You are our strong tower our refugee in the times of trouble. We fear no evil for our God is with us, and if our God is with us, whom then shall we fear? We love You, LORD. Can’t wait to see You on Your throne.
