Prayer Requests from June 12, 2016. Please pray for……..
Another act of terrorism has hit America in Orlando, FL. As we mourn, as we get angry, may we pray for the families who have lost loved ones as well as those who survived but have physical and emotional injuries. We can't let "hate" be the driving force in any way. Jesus told us to "not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." This
is tough to do to those who have brought harm to people, but we can reach out in love to suffering families, then pray for those who wish ill of us. (Pastor Burton Robinson)
Sean Prendergast (Son of Erin Prendergast): Moving on to the next chapter of his life in LA.
Please pray for my mom who has two herniated disks. (Emily Schlak)
