"...the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."
James 5:16 (NIV)
As the body of Christ, we lift in prayer our brothers and sisters in Christ. As His sons and daughters, we can approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, and we would like to do that for:​
  • Please pray for Jami Bader and her family as they grieve the loss of her sister, Jessica Leigh Hotovy, who passed away on September 19. Pray that God comforts them with His presence, strengthens them in their sorrow, and surrounds them with His peace.

  • Please pray for Paul Van Beusekom’s overall health. Ask God to bring healing, renew his strength, and grant him peace and encouragement each day.

  • Please pray for Bonnie Wycoff’s health, asking God to bring healing, strength, and renewed hope. Pray that she feels His loving care and sustaining presence.

  • Please pray for the Chongo family as they serve in Scotland. Ask God to make their ministry fruitful and effective, provide for their physical, emotional, and financial needs, and continually encourage each family member. Pray that God renews their joy and strength as they faithfully serve Him.

  • Please continue praying for Ruth Philippi as she continues her recovery. Pray that God continues to grant her healing, renewed strength, and steady improvement. Also pray that God continues to strengthen and sustain Paul as he faithfully walks alongside Ruth during this time.​
