THE PRAYER PLACE: ECUMENICAL PRAYER GROUP TO BEGIN AUG. 17TH AT TRINITY
After months of discussion and waiting for the right timing – a follow-up group to the April Prayer Event with Dr. Roy Miller will begin a monthly ecumenical prayer group, August 17th, from 7-9pm in the Prayer Room.
The present Island Ministerium has been consulted about this and agreed that it would be a good way to encourage unity among the churches.
On behalf of the group I will be sending letters of invitation to all of the churches on Grand Island which will be sent this week with a return post card enclosed for a response from those who will attend an initial meeting. Although there has been a special request made that we pray particularly for Island Churches and agencies which do humanitarian work here, it is thought that those who come together may want to expand to other areas of prayer. It would be one of the issues discussed…but we would be primarily praying for God’s Spirit to lead us as we begin this venture in shared prayer time. (A copy of the letter is available)
We’ll welcome those who are interested and have some genuine desire for unity among Christians…we will not be discussing differences but common Christian love and trust in God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit for guidance, healing and hope.
FALL PRAYER POSSIBILITIES: Also once VBS and the mission trip for the teens has been completed, I will be approaching the Von Wald’s and Ginny Wilkinson about whether they have good prayer resources in their present curriculum or may need additional ideas for incorporating prayer in their classes.
