Neighboring At House Of Hope

Being Good Neighbors For Jesus

On 5th Wednesdays throughout the year, the Pickard small group leads a team to serve at House of Hope. They serve a meal and spend time getting to know the women and children who live there.

A group was there this week and the residents provided anonymous prayer requests. Would you join us in praying for them?

  • "Please say a prayer for my sister. She is currently in remission from leukemia but still has to undergo chemo."

  • "God has blessed me in every way possible. My son and I are grateful for all we have gained. Prayer: patience, growth, our own place, health, keep us safe."

  • "I need prayer for God's will in returning back to school on 9/6. Need county approval before then. I also need prayer for my health. I am battling thyroid and ovarian cancer. Currently undergoing chemo for ovarian. Very strong treatment. And for my children to be comforted during this time. Thank you."

  • "Pray for my son in the Marines in Japan. For my 10-month old son, and for me to get a good job and apartment soon. Thanks."

  • Please pray for my friend to get through chemo. Please pray for me to gain employment. For my daughter to keep her safe and enjoy kindergarten. Thank you."

Thanks for praying.

Thank You For Serving Foster Families

SUPPORTING THOSE WHO MAKE SACRIFICES

On Saturday, volunteers from Sovereign Grace Church hosted a BBQ for foster and adoptive families from Olive Crest. These families are making huge sacrifices to care for children in our neighborhoods who need a stable and loving home. They are doing it for the glory of God. We wanted to bless them for doing it.

A SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR VOLUNTEERS

You could've been doing anything else on a Saturday, but you chose to serve. God is bearing fruit in your lives. Thank you for making Him look good.

A VERY SPECIAL THANKS TO DYLAN FOR LEADING

Dylan made this happen. He connected with Olive Crest. He planned. He recruited. We are grateful for his leadership.

Loving Our Neighbors

 God Loves Those In Need

This week members from our church served a meal to the families living at House of Hope. God is using the staff, volunteers, and donors to provide these women and children the stability and support they need. It's a privilege to get to know them and encourage them.

Each time we're there, we ask for anonymous prayer requests. Just like us, these precious people have needs and requests only God can satisfy. We join them in asking God to work.

The requests are listed below. We encourage you to pray with us.

  • That we get an apartment. Thank you. God bless.
  • Please pray for my daughter that she may remain healthy & grow to her fullest potential. Thank you!
  • Please pray for my health. I am currently battling ovarian & thyroid cancer. Treatments not working. Uncertainty kicking in and stressful which isn't helping. Thank you.
  • I'm thankful for all you do for us. I'm thankful that God saved me! Would love prayer for healing, for my health, for our peace. To continue to guide us in the right direction.
  • Please pray for my two sons: my 7 month old for his health and my son in the Marines. Pray that God guides his path. In 2 months he will be moved to another location or deployed to war. Pray that I might pass the Cbest test to be a substitute teacher and God might open doors for a job offer. Thank you.
  • I would like prayer for God to open doors, but more to hear His voice and to stay obedient. I don't want to envy people of the world. I want to be joyful. I don't want to be unhappy or empty. But my joy has left me. I need help & God knows why. Thank you for your prayers. God be with you all for your servant's heart.
