A BURDEN FOR PRAYER “May God give us hearts that bleed, eyes that are wide open to see, minds that are clear to interpret God’s purpose, wills that are obedient, and a determination that is utterly unflinching as we set about the tasks He would have us to do.” WEEKLY Minimizing Distractions: To the extent possible, please stay seated once the teaching begins; and please turn off or silence all communication devices. Tithes & Offerings: We do not pass an offering plate during our services, but encourage all who attend regularly “whose hearts are stirred and everyone whose spirit is willing” to place your offerings in the dark walnut box on the back table.
