PRAYER REQUEST

Hello : My name is Phil. I'm on medical stress leave from a job that destroyed my life and my faith. Since I've been off work, the Lord has restored my faith. The problem is my doctor will only give me till the end of this month off. Please pray that God will make a way for me so I won't have to go back to that terrible place that broke me. I've been looking for another job, but haven't found one yet. When April 1st arrives, I was planning on resigning from my job and trusting God to provide for my wife and I. Please pray that God will take care of us and supply us with the finances we will need.
Thank you and God bless.

Valentine's Day

Even though Valentine’s Day was created more for the merchants of the world, it is a wonderful way to focus our thoughts on love and caring for our fellow man. Christ told us love is the greatest of all. Our prayer today is that each of you has some one to share love with today, and that we share that love every day of the year. Roses and chocolate may be a symbol of love, but in a few days they will be gone. Give love wrapped in kindness every day to every one. There is no greater gift than a kind gesture inspired by love.

2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.

PRAYER REQUEST

Hello all, please pray for for us. We are a family of mother and twelve children. Our brother was shot at close range in the head and died on the spot. There was only one witness...our mother! Please pray for us, for this senseless crime in a little country called Belize. My poor mother cradled her dying son on the ground in a pool of Blood, but he was gone. This is very devastated for us, since our father passed some twenty something years ago, and since then we made it to now. We have often grieved with other families and friends, but this time hits home. Please pray for us. God Bless you all...
