Church prayer bulletin

November 2009

Please place the following weekly prayer requests in your church bulletins on the designated Sunday, and if possible pray about the need during that same service. We also encourage the entire church to follow the weekly pastor/church prayer schedule of the senior pastor.

Thank you for your prayer support!

Monthly prayer focus In November the days of fall battle against the onslaughts of winter. We face a similar type of spiritual “winter onslaught” in our lives with the only difference being that winter does not have to win. Pray for strength to be spiritually vibrant during a month that can be cold and harsh.

Transitions in Herbert

Pray for Pastor Bob and Betty Cappelle and the Herbert congregation as they bid “farewell” to each other today and for Director of Church Ministries Ralph and his wife Grace Gliege as they minister there this morning. Please also pray for Director of Harvest Saskatchewan Dwayne and his wife Irma Barkman as they lead a Personal Refocusing Retreat for the Leadership Team at Herbert November 6–7. Pray for a sense of God’s guidance and direction for these leaders as they lead Herbert through a time of pastoral transition.

Final chemo treatment

Continue to pray for Pastor Ken and Mary Epp and the congregation at Main Centre. This week Ken will be undergoing his final chemo treatment. Pray for God’s special undergirding for Ken as the days following the treatment are often very difficult.

“The Tangible Kingdom”

Pray for Pastor Brian Wiens of Parliament Community Church and the Harvest Saskatchewan Team as he gathers a POD of 8–10 leaders to study the book entitled The Tangible Kingdom. This book focuses on personal and corporate attitude and paradigm shifts we need to consider if we want to effectively minister to the un-churched and de-churched in this ever-changing culture we live in.

The search continues . . .

Pray for the congregation at Foam Lake as they continue to search for a prospective pastor. Pray for Director of Church Ministries Ralph and his wife Grace Gliege as they minister there today.
