Dear God,
There are days when our prayers come easily. There are other days when prayer is difficult. Open our hearts, O Lord, that in our joy and in our sorrow we might feel your presence and be assured of your love. Sometimes in our actions and thoughts we move away from you. Help us to realize there is no place that is beyond your grace. Even as our backs are turned, you are there. Empower us, loving God, to turn into your embrace.
In Jesus name, AMEN.

Tonight is WWNF. Come at 5:15 and participate in the Young Adult WWNF Meal. The proceeds will support the Mexico Mission trip in October.
Please pray for Jennifer and Phil Pearsall and their baby as they prepare to move to the Washington D.C. area for Phil’s new assignment in the Air Force. Paul and Mickie Giberson will travel with them. They leave tomorrow evening.
Please continue your prayers for the Denny family. The memorial service for Murel is Friday at 11:00 a.m. in the Chapel. A number of choir members will sing.
This Sunday is Bridge (Promotion) Sunday. A decision was made yesterday to combine both the 10:15 a.m. services so everyone, children, youth and adults can participate together in the recognition of those who are “promoting”.
Grace and peace,
John McLemore
