Missions Focus: Please be praying forJoseph & Jozeca M, missionaries we support monthly who serve in a sensitive region. They are finishing up a season in one county and moving to a new one. “Pray that we would be sensitive to new opportunities to connect and share here even though our time is wrapping up.”
Local: Pray for people in your world that feel that no one sees them or that God doesn’t care about them. Seek opportunity to be an answer to prayer.
Church: Pray for our Corner Church pastors.
