WEEKLY PRAYER REQUESTS:

• Pray that we continue to be a church that is “on mission”, sharing the gospel and making disciples in our homes, neighborhoods + community, locally, and that we are sensitive to ways we can “go” globally whether it be through global missions or supporting missionaries financially and through prayer.
• Pray for the Youth Getaway this weekend as our Junior High students are at Silver Birch Ranch.  Ask that they learn tools and practices that draw them closer to Christ in their everyday life, that they encounter Christ’s love in new ways, and that they connect well to other and leaders in community that builds one another up as well as builds upon Christ.
• Pray that God will be using His Word and moving through His Spirit to teach every person at Woodlands Church how to live with open hands, and how to grow in their dependence on Him through giving of their time, talents, and treasures.
• Pray for the families that are dedicating their children on Sunday.  Ask that God protects these families, and is the center-point in their relationships with each other.  Pray for the parents that are learning ways to disciple their children to be followers of Christ.  Pray that our church is a place where families are important and cherished, and that we support one another well in raising children. 
• Pray for our supported missionaries Darrell + Sondra. Pray for their health, security and peace in the country that they serve in, and wisdom moving forward with their ministry.  Pray Isaiah 52:7 and Psalm 68:10 over them and their ministry.
