The Prayerful Pause - October 11

I am excited to officially welcome our new Assistant Childcare Provider, Maya Allen!
 
Maya will be helping Emily in the nursery on Sunday mornings, and we are thrilled to have her on board. Emily and Maya will lovingly care for our youngest children while also sharing a play-based Bible lesson with the kids in the nursery each week. It’s never too early to begin teaching our babies and toddlers about Jesus’ love, and I know that Emily and Maya will make a great team. Please take a moment to pray for Maya as she takes on this new role, and please offer her a warm welcome when you see her around the church building.
 
Speaking of prayer, I would like to thank everyone who has been praying for me this month during Pastor Appreciation Month. It means so much to me and my family. You are a true blessing!
 
This week, I also want to ask you to pause and pray for our church staff. We have a dedicated church staff, and I am blessed to serve alongside each of them.

  • Please pray for Nickie as she serves in the church office with amazing attention to detail, boundless compassion, and great love.
     

  • Please pray for J.R. as he offers expert guidance and ministry to the choir, worship band, and congregation while seamlessly handling all our A.V. needs.
     

  • Please pray for Holly as she ministers to our youth and children in a beautifully authentic and relational way, encouraging them to follow Jesus wholeheartedly while also recruiting and coordinating volunteers for these ministries.
     

  • Please pray for Gina as her fingertips glide over the piano keys, joyously sharing God’s love with each note she plays.
     

  • Please pray for Brice as he shares his musical gifts as an intern in our music ministry with dedication, enthusiasm, and a can-do attitude.
     

  • Please pray for Emily and Maya as they care for our youngest children in the nursery with compassion and patience, while modeling Jesus’ wide-armed welcome and love for them.
