Day of Prayer
The quarterly Day of Prayer will be held this Sunday. The 9:00 prayer session will be held in the Catacombs, due to Bible School graduation exercises in Fellowship Hall. The 11:00 prayer session will be held in the usual room of 1Rear in the 315 Building.
Please attend and participate. This prayer time is a work on behalf of the kingdom of God. Just as much as physically ministering for the kingdom, prayer is a labor to be carried out.
"...pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest” (Matthew 9:38).
"...pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word..." (Colossians 3:3).
"...I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective..." (Philemon 6).
Kingdom-minded prayer is not about coming to the Lord as you feel a need to. It is about fulfilling your obligation to participate in the work of God's kingdom.
I particularly urge you to attend because of the factors that will hinder participation. The Bible School graduation will draw away parents who have children participating. This is also a communion Sunday, which obligates elders to be available in the worship service. Typically, I lead the 9:00 prayer time, but will have to be in the worship service, administering communion. I will be leading the 11:00 prayer time. Elmer Snethen will lead the 9:00 service.
Whether or not you can attend, to uphold the church in prayer. Here is the prayer sheet we will be using on Sunday.
