40 Days of Prayer - Day 17 ( 23 to go)

Wow – what a blessing it was yesterday to run out of fish and deliver 425 plates. It is so amazing to know that God is in control of everything and that he is definitely in this trip. Thanks to everyone who worked hard selling, planning, cooking, serving, eating, and lifting up this event. You could just feel the excitement building about the trip as we were together as a team. Those times together are about much more than the money we raise. They are vital for the health of our team and God is using these times to make a team out of us. Please continue to pray for that and we hope everyone can be at more meetings over the next 23 days. (I like saying that) Remember that we have a cookout planned at my house next Saturday, July 11th at 6:00 in the afternoon. It is for anyone affiliated with this trip (not just the traveling team) and their families. Again, God can and will use these informal times to prepare us for this trip. Something special happens to groups when you break bread together and we are excited about that time. See you there.

Today, lets pray for Lisa Calcote.
Lisa is no stranger to our church family. She is Lana Phillips sister and they are daughters of Brother Lloyd and Mrs. Ann Calcote. Lisa grew up in the ministry and we are very excited about having her on this trip. Pray for her to be used as God sees fit. Not only her medical skills, but her spirit to be willing to God’s urging. Lisa has been on other mission trips, but this will be her first with our church. Also pray that if God is willing, that Lisa could become a permanent part of our church family.
