Co), Joe & Esther Pearson, Hannah Metzler, Peter Zucca, Connor
Raifsnider, Michele Delp, and Horace Bergey.
-Pray for the Grubel family, members of the Towamencin Fire
Company, who are mourning the loss of their niece, Alisha, 20 years
old, who was killed in a car accident. This family also lost another
20-year-old niece last year in a car accident as well. Pray for God’s
touch of comfort and peace to be upon them in this difficult time.
-Continue to pray for Anthony Flick, the Stone girls, and our
community as we recover from the tragic shootings of a week ago.
Pray that God’s touch of healing would be swift and complete and
that this event may be something that brings our community closer
together.
-Pray for the work team from our church leaving for Bethany Birches
Camp later today. Pray for a great week of work and safety for the
entire trip. The group includes Brent, Linda, Casie and Preston
Allebach, Natasha Bergey, Eli Keeler, David Good, Tiffany Knechel,
Eric Raifsnider, Eli Vasey, and John Vasey.
-Pray for persons as they reflect on their spiritual lives and commit to
changes and rededication for the New Year. Pray for God’s touch of
grace to be upon them and for each person to experience the joy of
new beginnings in Christ.
