[2537.60 --> 2538.16] Thank you. |
[2538.16 --> 2544.40] Please join me in our church family prayer this morning. |
[2549.88 --> 2552.00] Lord God, you love this world so much |
[2552.00 --> 2554.54] that you gave your one and only son |
[2554.54 --> 2557.18] that we might be called your children too. |
[2558.30 --> 2561.76] With resurrection power, you have given us freedom. |
[2562.76 --> 2565.20] No longer bound by sin and darkness, |
[2565.20 --> 2567.54] we are living in the light of your goodness. |
[2568.76 --> 2571.60] Lord, help us to live in the gladness and grace |
[2571.60 --> 2574.16] of Easter Sunday, every day. |
[2575.18 --> 2577.98] Let us have hearts of thankfulness for your sacrifice. |
[2579.22 --> 2581.40] Let us have eyes that look upon your grace |
[2581.40 --> 2583.24] and rejoice in our salvation. |
[2584.18 --> 2586.96] And help us to walk in that mighty grace |
[2586.96 --> 2590.50] and tell your good news to the world today. |
[2590.50 --> 2595.94] Lord, as we celebrate the holidays like Easter this weekend, |
[2596.06 --> 2599.28] we continue to pray for families that have lost loved ones, |
[2600.04 --> 2602.64] asking them that you sustain them with your peace |
[2602.64 --> 2604.42] during this time. |
[2606.18 --> 2609.20] We pray for comfort and strength for the Wind family |
[2609.20 --> 2611.62] in the passing of Sam's brother |
[2611.62 --> 2614.62] after a battle with pancreatic cancer. |
[2614.62 --> 2617.88] May they experience your presence |
[2617.88 --> 2621.86] as they remember and celebrate his life. |
[2623.64 --> 2625.96] We also pray for comfort and peace |
[2625.96 --> 2629.04] that passes all understanding on Pastor George Kulin, |
[2629.90 --> 2631.96] the Kulin and Rietkirk families, |
[2632.46 --> 2636.18] and the Bridge Church in the passing of Kim Kulin on Friday. |
[2637.84 --> 2640.26] Despite the grief that comes with loss, |
[2640.64 --> 2642.78] there is comfort in knowing George's wife Kim |
[2642.78 --> 2644.30] is free from fighting cancer. |
[2646.86 --> 2649.46] We pray for families expecting babies. |
[2649.62 --> 2651.46] And Lord, we celebrate in thanksgiving |
[2651.46 --> 2653.94] with Daniel and Ismay Howling, |
[2654.48 --> 2657.18] who are blessed with a healthy baby girl, Daphne. |
[2658.22 --> 2661.10] We give thanks for this precious new life. |
[2663.94 --> 2666.30] And Lord, we pray for the nomination process. |
[2667.20 --> 2669.26] Lord, we know that you are calling a number of people |
[2669.26 --> 2672.24] to serve in this unique capacity of leadership. |
[2673.40 --> 2674.76] Whoever you have in mind, |
[2675.52 --> 2677.06] may they hear your voice clearly, |
[2677.20 --> 2679.52] and may they have the courage to accept your call |
[2679.52 --> 2681.12] in the coming weeks. |
[2682.88 --> 2684.78] Lord, we pray for those in our congregation, |
[2684.94 --> 2686.16] as well as friends and family |
[2686.16 --> 2688.64] who suffer from chronic and serious health issues |
[2688.64 --> 2690.44] on a daily basis. |
[2691.44 --> 2694.34] May they experience your provision and nearness each day. |
[2694.34 --> 2698.42] We pray for those who are struggling with hurting |
[2698.42 --> 2699.76] and broken relationships. |
[2700.60 --> 2702.52] May they experience reconciliation, |
[2703.28 --> 2704.86] restoration, and healing. |
[2706.14 --> 2709.64] And in the event the relationship cannot be restored, |
[2709.78 --> 2711.48] Lord, we pray for strength and protection |
[2711.48 --> 2714.02] on the children that may be involved |
[2714.02 --> 2715.92] in any custody arrangements. |
[2717.08 --> 2719.52] May they experience your unfailing love. |
[2719.52 --> 2723.40] Lord, we pray for your nearness to all those |
[2723.40 --> 2725.06] in our congregation who are shut in, |
[2725.38 --> 2728.32] isolated, or may be experiencing loneliness, |
[2729.00 --> 2730.14] depression, and anxiety. |
[2731.04 --> 2732.92] We pray for strength and encouragement |
[2732.92 --> 2734.22] during their difficulties, |
[2734.96 --> 2737.18] and for protection over them and their caregivers. |
[2738.72 --> 2740.74] May it serve as a reminder for us |
[2740.74 --> 2742.32] and the church family to reach out |
[2742.32 --> 2745.06] and to connect with those in need. |
[2745.06 --> 2749.62] Lord, we're praying for families impacted by COVID |
[2749.62 --> 2750.62] over the Easter weekend. |
[2751.44 --> 2753.30] We know that we haven't been able to have |
[2753.30 --> 2754.52] the gatherings we wanted |
[2754.52 --> 2756.80] and see all the people we'd like to see. |
[2757.76 --> 2759.82] Many of us are suffering from COVID fatigue |
[2759.82 --> 2761.86] and as a result are sometimes not making |
[2761.86 --> 2763.24] the best decisions. |
[2765.04 --> 2767.38] Lord, we're praying for an end to this pandemic. |
[2768.60 --> 2770.70] We're thankful the vaccines are here |
[2770.70 --> 2771.62] and getting in arms. |
