Subscribe to Every Post:Praying for Life
These next two Sundays at Grace will be a little different than usual (as if there is a “usual” at Grace). We will be publicly highlighting all the house churches we have currently established. Each set of mentors will have a couple minutes to share some personal thoughts and/or testimonies with regard to their house church. It will be really helpful to hear how God has made every house church unique and what is occurring in these settings. We will hear from 12 this Sunday and another 12 next Sunday.
As our leadership attempts to improve in overall communication, this will be an exciting time to hear just what is happening within the big picture at Grace. I think you will be surprised at just how much impact our church family is having on people in our community.
Lastly, I wanted to share something a little more personal. I am not sure if God speaks to people today in dreams or not, but if he does, I think he spoke to me a couple nights ago. Through this dream I have been motivated to increase my prayer for the protection of the unborn. Praying for “Life” is one of many ways we can minister to the “least of these” and for those who are cast aside in our society.
Praying both for these babies and praying for these moms are acts of compassion and grace.
Also, most of you may know that we support “A Hope Center” which is also a tool of compassion and grace as well. I encourage you to pray for them. Perhaps, there will be a house church someday that chooses this ministry as their missional focus. This would be a tremendous blessing to our community and very pleasing to our God.
