Daily life (announcements for Feb 13)
Hi everyone,
At prayer meeting this week, we reviewed the picture of the church’s daily life in Acts 2:42-47. Here are a few prayer requests that we gathered from that text:
- That we would be enthusiastic in attending and participating in public worship on the Lord’s Day.
- That we would be generous and grateful in our daily life.
- That our deacons would have wisdom to provide for needs in the church.
- That we would enjoy extending and receiving hospitality.
- That worship would be part of our daily life, whether at home or in church activities.
- That God would add to our number through conversions.
These could easily be items of thanksgiving, because God has already been providing these blessings. Our prayer is that he would continue to bless us in these ways more and more, for his glory.
Sincerely,
Pastor Goligher
