Prayer for Today, Sunday, April 29

God of Hope,

We adore You and praise Your name. As we come to You in prayer we are keenly aware of our sinfulness. We claim the lordship of Jesus Christ. We claim that all are created in Your image. We talk of love and forgiveness, yet we so often miss the mark. We fail to translate words into deeds. Please forgive us, Loving God. May we be a people of action. Send You Spirit to empower us to be bold in our deeds as we follow the Christ into the world. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN.

We lift up the family of Gladys Turner, Beth Henneke’s aunt, who died yesterday.

Prayers have been requested for a family in severe emotional distress. Please pray for this anonymous family.

It looks like we will have some thunderstorms this morning. Get your umbrellas and come to church.

Today is Mike and Lana Ellis’ last Sunday with us as residents. Please pray for a good and safe transition to their new life in Edmond.

It is good to be home. The Regional Assembly was a wonderful experience. Our youth and some adults are still in Duncan because Youth at the Assembly continues through this morning. James Phillips is there leading them in worship. Dustin Damery will lead the R & R worship with Don Johnson preaching.

There are no youth group meetings at the church today.

SCRIPTRURE FOR TODAY & PSALM FOR THE WEEK



Grace and peace,

John McLemore
