You Were Formed for God’s Family

 

 

How

 

How was your first week of purpose-driven living?  Hopefully you now have a new verse of scripture locked away in your mind and you have enjoyed focusing on the big question, “What on earth am I here for?” through your daily readings.  Next week we will learn about the second purpose, Fellowship.  We were formed to be a part of God’s family and if you are connecting with other people in a 40 Days of Purpose Small Group, you are experiencing some great fellowship!  It’s not too late to join one.  See Pastor Tim for more information.

“But I, when I am lifted up from the earth,

will draw all men to myself.”  John 12:32

 

If you have any available time on Sunday Evenings from 5:30 to 7:30pm and would like a quiet place to pray, you can use Room 003.  There will be prayer sheets for your use.  The church is also open between 10am and 4pm for prayer.  Let’s continue to seek God’s will for our lives, our church and our community!

“Pray that the Master’s Word will simply take off and race through the country to a groundswell of response, just as it did among you.”

2 Thessalonians 3:1 (Msg.)

 

 

Prayer Focus

Pray that the men, women and children of our church will more completely understand that they were created for God’s pleasure.  Specifically ask that they will have a joyful heart of worship and become best friends with the Lord.

 

“Very early in the morning, while it was still dark,

 Jesus got up, left the house and

went off to a solitary place,

where He prayed.”  Mark 1:35 (NIV)
