Most Gracious God,
Today we remember the events of 119 years ago when thousands of people made the run into the Cherokee Strip. Their courage, fortitude, and hope has impacted scores of generations, even to today. We also remember those people of faith who started new churches on the frontier and we thank You for their continuing influence. As we celebrate our heritage, Gracious God, may we consider the legacy we are leaving future generations. The frontier has changed, but there are still many challenges, particularly for the church. Give us the strength and wisdom, we pray, to be equal to the task before us. In Jesus’ name we pray. AMEN.
______
Please continue to pray for Fran Hoad, Bert Sims, Gene Morahan, Jim Goodness, and Sophia Farmer.
Also please pray for Jim Stroup. He is in the last stages of his life.
