November 23 Prayer Update
The Gift of Prayer
Fifteen volunteers spent last Saturday the 23rd attending to the physical needs of many homeless men and women. They distributed sandwiches, blessings bags, Bibles, and a jacket. But the greatest gift the volunteers offered was the Presence of Jesus as they talked and as they prayed with so many. The needs of our homeless friends are great, but so is our tender Shepherd! He has compassion for them, wants to meet with them and care for them. Below are descriptions of some of the prayer needs shared with our volunteers. Would you commit to praying for these needs this week?
