Greetings!
I am also excited that our team has been praying to meet 1,000 people this year, and share the truth about Jesus with them. This is a bold goal but we are excited about it. Pray that God will continue moving in the minds and hearts of people as we distribute copies of the Bible (in Arabic) and copies of Nabeel Qureshi’s book “Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus” Thank you for partnering with us in this ministry. Your prayers are a powerful help to us here!
Sincerely, Jessica Barnett
Seeking God’s Guidance
This evening at 6:30pm we will share in a prayer service that seeks the Lord’s guidance in our lives. Do you need God to guide you in 2017? Perhaps in your work, or relationships, or even the situations you face? Join us and let us lift these concerns to God.If you have a special request, plase write it down and place it in the pink box on the far left side of the church platform. All concerns will be remembered. Come and see how the Lord will lead!
