Dear Church Family,

In his letter to the churches, James reminded us at the end of chapter five that anytime is the right time to go to God in prayer. During the month of May I want to challenge you to spend more time in prayer. We have many opportunities to gather for prayer. The Women’s Missionary Union is hosting a National Day of Prayer gathering on Thursday, May 3rd at 6:30pm in the Social Hall. This is a wonderful opportunity to come and spend some time praying for our country.

Also, Wednesday evenings at 6:30pm we will continue to pray for one another, our family and friends, our city, our country, and the world. I want to encourage you to make it a priority to gather with us on Wednesday evenings in May. Our prayer times will look a little different than in the past. Our time will be a guided time of praying for different needs among us as well as for ministry opportunities and effectiveness. We are a praying church and during the month of May I want us to shift our prayers into high gear. I want us to increase our time in prayer in order to be prepared for what God is going to do in and through us this summer. We will have many opportunities to be used greatly by God. Let’s commit ourselves to spend even more time in prayer this month asking God to work mightily among us!

In Christ,

Pastor Ron Jones
