Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1Thessalonians 5:16-18)
We praise the Lord for the 52 nd anniversary that Ade and Bea Molendyk celebrate today and 56 th anniversary that Joe and Karen Nordyke will celebrate on Friday. We give thanks to the Lord for the love that God has given to Ade and Bea and Joe and Karen and pray for God to bless them with a special day.

Please pray for Elly De Jonge’s sister, Marilyn Staat , as it was determined that cancer has spread to her bone. Pray for Marilyn as she meets with doctors this week to discuss radiation and chemotherapy. Pray for God’s comforting presence to be with
Marilyn and her family in this difficult time.
Please pray for Alex Steenwyk as he is experiencing intense headaches and pain after his ACL repair surgery and as the doctor suspects that
Alex may have contracted viral meningitis. Pray for God to be with
Alex and the Steenwyk family in this time of need and for the pain to subside quickly so that Alex can make a full recovery.
We praise the Lord for the success of Church Treats on Friday night.
We give thanks for the many people in the community who attended on
Friday night and pray that God will use our interaction to plant the seed of Christ’s love in their life.
We give our thanksgiving to the Lord on this Adoption Awareness

Pray for God to provide for their needs and for the legal system to move quickly toward completely the adoptions. Pray for children around our world that are waiting to be matched with a forever family.
