That was quickly followed by the Annual Treelighting Ceremony here in Orange that we partner here with our City. THEY GAVE US TWO BLOCKS this year for bounce houses and trains and crafts. It was a lot of fun and total success.
We launched our new ministry plan in March of last year and we have seen God move in ways that make it seem like we are on slippery ground. Hard to keep up! God is so good. Pray we are wise with the blessings He is giving us.
This last weekend, 30 HS Choir students and their families joined us for worship and lead us in two songs. It was beautiful! They came to say thanks for our ladies repairing their robes "better than new."
Praise God the Body of Christ seems to be gathering in Orange. More pastors are joining us for prayer and the discussions we have now tagged on the back of the meetings on issues like homelessness and recovery.
Pray for our partners: School principals, city officials, etc. We lost two more key partners to job loss and family illness last week.
Pray for our finances. We are basically brooke, but somehow able to operate.
Please pray for our family health...
- Nathan twisted an ankle that revealed a greater problem. He has had several MRI's and xrays. We will discover the results next week.
- Carolyn and Keziah are fighting off strep.
- I am still dealing with my hand and trying to decide what to do.
Also pray for our Christmas Eve services in a week or so.
Please keep the Israel trip in prayer as I need to give final answers to the agency on January 3.
Thanks for keeping us in prayer. lots of plates in the air.
Love
Ric
