Thank you and prayer request

Dear Family,

 

I received the following text from Bernie Eiswert concerning his sister, Kathy’s, surgery today, “surgery was more involved than they thought, but surgeon doesn't expect complications. Praise and thanks to God, and thank you to our entire church family for all their prayers.” 

 

Please join us in praying for healing for Deb Pelow who is hospitalized at least overnight with pneumonia.

 

Thank you for partnering with us.

Praises and Prayer Request

Dear Family,

 

We are praising God for an encouraging and uplifting experience that Pastor Rodney, Joyce Hornbaker, Liam O’Hagen, Troy Shively, myself and many others participated in at the annual Eastern Regional Conference these past two days at Camp Yolijwa. 

 

I am grateful for the fifteen church members who attended Reggie MeNeal’s “Resilience in Leadership” Seminar Sunday evening.  Pray that we apply in our personal life the things we learned and that we would lead well those that God has placed around us.

 

Praise God for carrying Mark Zimmerman, Mike Gutshall’s nephew, through yet another surgery.  Please pray for complete healing and recovery for him in this hard journey.

 

Thank for celebrating what God is doing and for God’s touch upon each of us according to our need.

 

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”   2 Corinthians 3:3-4

 

For His Glory,

SFCOG Prayer Updates

Hello Church Family,

 

Larry Russell is now being flown to York hospital as he is facing some significant heart blockages. Kathy welcomes as many prayers as possible.

 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

--Philippians 4:6-7
