“You are of God, little children,
and have overcome them, because He who is in you
is greater than he who is in the world.”
1 John 4:4
PRAYER THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: “You belong to God as a little child belongs to a parent. The reason you are able to overcome Satan’s powerful temptations is because the Holy Spirit which dwells in you is much greater than the devil’s power in the world”. Mark Finley
PRAYER REQUESTS: Pray for our young people and ask God to bless our outreach program in the community. Pray for one another for wisdom and good health. Pray for Pastor Jerry Oster, Sharon Oster, Carol Tuttle, Bill Eaton, Kelly Parker’s father, Sarah Parker’s grandfather, Pat Wonderlich in Iraq, Bob in the Navy, and Mike in the Marines. Place prayer requests in the church-shaped box in the narthex or e-mail to Kathy Tuttle.
