Join us in fasting on the first Friday of every month in 2018. Church members who fast for all 12 Fridays will be invited to a year-end party to celebrate the answers to our prayers.

If fasting is new to you, here are some instructions.

SUNDAY MORNINGS

Our prayer focus for August is our Sunday morning services. The importance of these 52 meetings each year cannot be overstated. We need God to meet us every time we meet.

• Pray that our church would look to these meetings with eager anticipation because they are experiencing God's goodness, presence, and care as we gather.
• Pray that God would give the pastors wisdom as they plan and lead our services.
• Pray that the many volunteers -- setup/teardown, musicians, children's ministry, hospitality, greeting -- would be blessed and strengthened in their service.
• Pray that God would use our preaching of the gospel to refresh the church and gather the lost.
• Pray for our preachers -- our pastors, members, and guests -- that they would declare God's word boldly and clearly for our good.
• Pray for the work of the Spirit to be evident in our meetings.
• Pray for our singing to continue to be gospel-centered, God-centered, joyful, and loud.
• Pray for those who are struggling to attend regularly, that God would work in their hearts and their circumstances to enable them to join us.
