We uphold those who are recovering from health issues:
John Kloosterman Jr, Al Hammers, Connie Kistler, Effie
Van Leusen and Darren Kloosterman. We pray that God
will grant healing and strength to His people in need
Remember Ellen Scheepsta in prayer, as she goes in for
hip replacement surgery on Tuesday this week.
We continue to uphold in prayer those families who have
recently lost loved ones. We pray that they will be
strengthened and upheld by the God of mercy and love.
As high school students finish up their term, we uphold
them in prayer as they prepare for exams.
As we pray for and support the local ministries of this
church, this week we pray for the Young Adult
Group/College & Careers. We give thanks for this group of
young adults who come together to study, praise and
fellowship. May they continue to grow and nurture their
faith together!

“There is no greater mistake than to suppose
that a Christian has nothing to do with the law
and the 10 commandments,
because he can’t be justified by keeping them.
The same Holy Ghost who convinces
the believe of sin by the law,
and leads him to Jesus for justification,
will always lead him to a spiritual use of the law, as a
friendly guide in the pursuit of sanctification”
