When we pray, we realize that without God’s involvement in our lives, our lives have very little meaning; really no eternal meaning without God.

“Prayer for the Nations” is the theme of our quarterly Global Vision Weekends in 2011.The first one is set for February 5 and 6.

Steve Hawthorne, a prayer champion who creates the pre-Easter “Prayer for the City” books, will lead a prayer workshop on Saturday, February 5, from 8:30 a.m. to noon in the auditorium.

We received an e-mail from the Jon & Melissa Eager in response to a prayer request we posted last week. Jon and Melissa are members of our church who are serving as medical missionaries in Tanzania. Read this story to learn more.
