For daily need there is daily grace; for sudden need, sudden grace, and for overwhelming need, overwhelming grace. -John Blanchard
Please keep the Hitch family in prayer. Terri Hitch’s dad passed away suddenly on Christmas Eve. They went back for the services and have arrived back home. Terri’s dad got to welcome in Christmas day the best way possible – sitting and worshiping at the feet of Jesus.
Zack Ruud left this week for a term of service in Iraq. Please keep him and all our service people in prayer. He was supposed to send me his e-mail address and snail-mail ardes so we could keep in touch with him – but I guess he got busy. Hopefully I Hill be able to get them from his parents.
Nola Ambler, Judi Wright’s mom, is suffering from some type of complication that causes her to stay awake all night talking. It is very wearing on her physically and on Judi. Please keep Judi in prayer as she continues to tend to her mom.
My co-worker, Jack Daniel has been able to go home from the hospital. Please continue to pray for him. His true problem is that he does not know Jesus.
Emmanuel Amescua has been able to go home from the hospital! Great praise!

El Rahum, Merciful God,
Be merciful to us, LORD God, and forgive us of our sins. Forgive us for our complacency and for our indifference. Forgive us for not turning to You first and foremost. Create in us a new heart, one that is in tune with You.
Abba, we lift Terri Hitch and all of her family before You. We praise You for Your promise that her dad is now with You and he is felling pretty good about that. Even as they mourn this passing, Terri and her family find comfort in knowing that they will see him again and they will see You.
God of the Angel Armies, we pray in agreement for Zack as he goes to serve You and to serve our country in Iraq. Please, Papa, protect him.
We lift up Jack Daniel and Nola Ambler as they face physical challenges. Heal them, LORD. We pray for Jack, that he may come to know You in a personal relationship.
Father God, hold Your daughter, Judi, close to You as she faces the many challenges in her life. Give her strength.
We lift up all of our loved ones who remain on our prayer chain. LORD God, be with them and be sovereign in each situation.
We thank You, Holy Spirit, for the great witness and strength of Your missionaries that You have chosen to serve You in places all around the world. We pray that You provide for their needs.
LORD Jesus, You have blessed our community of faith so abundantly in the pastors and leaders that you have placed with us. Help us to support them with our cooperation and with our love.
Give us opportunities to fish and the courage to throw the line into the waters. Give us an urgency to reach out before it is too late.
God bless America.
There is nothing that is better than knowing that we are Yours. You are everything to us. Help us to be the same on Monday as we are on Sonday.
