Call to Worship
Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, to whom belongs wisdom and might.
He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings;
He gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those with understanding;
He reveals deep and mysterious things;He knows what is in the darkness,
and the light dwells with him.To you, O God, we give thanks and praise.
Blessed be the name of God forever and ever.
Amen.

 Prayer Requests
Harry & Toshiko Piperakis who are facing many challenges.
Tykeem Myers, teen from East Delco, is not doing well. He has a infection in half of his brain and is in a coma. He is not responding to stimulation like he was before and the doctors still do not know what is causing his problems.
George Trout, JoAnn Rinne’s uncle, who underwent emergency spinal cord surgery this week for ruptured herniated disc and had another surgery later in the week. Both surgeries went well but he has lost the use of his right leg and arm. The doctors are hopeful with months of physical therapy his leg will heal . Please pray for his spirits through this time and the recovery of the use of his leg.
Mayshon Bartley, who is having GI test run to see why he is not eating.
The Peoples, as John is seeking new employment.

Know Him, Love Him, Share Him
Know Him...
Encouragement from John and Brenda. Thought for your journey:
God is not asking you to have your whole future figured out. He is asking you to trust
that He has your future planned.
Stormie O’Martian
Love Him...

B ecause of trial or pain
C ontinue in thanksgiving
D o not begin to blame
E ven when the times are hard
F ierce winds are bound toblow

Z ion waits in glory… where none are ever sad!

Start Every Day With Worship

Share Him...
The Piperakis’ are in need of a little building up at this time. Harry wrote several of us, as you will hear this morning, about some of the many struggles they have faced since moving to PA. Needless to say they are feeling a little bit discouraged. Please take the time this morning to sign the card that has been place on the foyer table to offer them a bit of encouragement and cheer from their Laurelwood family. You can also write or call them at:
1502 Glenside Rd. Downingtown, PA 19335 610-518-5667
It only takes a moment to be kind but the results can last a lifetime.
