Prayer Of LoveIn those mysterious, unexplained events of our lives, we sense the hand of an intervening angel to remind us of the reality of God’s love.
God,
Bless the unknown angels who clear the cluttered paths of the lost, who wipe the tears of the grieving, and who hold the hands that tremble in fear. Their names may be known only to you, but their acts of mercy give me the reassurance that your love touches everyone, everywhere. Amen
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth, faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
-1 Corinthians 13:12-13

Sunday School Christmas Mission This Christmas … …I want to give a child hope and healing.
For the remainder of the year, we would like to collect funds to buy goats, pigs or chickens for families in need. After talking it over with the students, the children have decided that they would like to set a goal of raising $1,000.00 towards this purchase. Please help support, and remind the children to stay focused on this goal.
See the full list of available gifts on the Sunday School Bulletin Board or online at GiveHopeAndHealing.org.
