Daily Prayer Request – Monday, August 7, 2017

Pray for Good to Prevail over Evil. Pray for protection for our HMC church body from the attacks of the enemy. Help us be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves as we deal with the wolves around us. Show us how to test every spirit to see if it is from God. Help us recognize the enemy’s disguises and schemes so that he won’t outwit us.

BULLETIN – August 6, 2017

The Church Office will be Closed on Monday, August 7 due to the Civic holiday.
Prayer is still happening! Plan to join in before the service at 9:30 a.m. at the front of the sanctuary.

We are looking for volunteers to join our tech crew! If you’d be willing to sit in the sound booth once a month and run the computer (song, announcement, and sermon slides) please let the church office know.

PRAYER REQUESTS

Daily Prayer Request – Friday, August 4, 2017

Pray for our Young at Heart leaders and members. Pray that we would be wise enough to tap into their wisdom and that they would be encouraged to share. Pray that whether strong and active or increasingly frail, their lives would be a testimony of the faithfulness of God. Pray for the measureless honour that one of them would take up the challenge of praying by name for you on a regular basis. Pray that we would find ways to express our respect and our love to them.

Daily Prayer Request – Wednesday, July 26, 2017

Pray for our LIT (Leaders in Training) group of senior youth, and their leaders. Pray for a solid grounding and a deep personal faith as they approach college and university days and consider lifetime choices. Pray that they would be excited about their faith and that their excitement would be contagious.
