pit, a road that will get smoother and smoother, steeper and steeper until the
only possible way is down. Down,

Pray this recognition will
not come too late. Pray we will,
each of us, do our duty to God, Country and Family, putting His Honor above
all.
Persecuted
The
Islamist group (ISIS) took over Quaragosh, the biggest Christian city in Iraq; 164
men, women and children were beheaded.
People ask where is God?
The real question is where are the people to enforce God’s will. Pray the people of the world will see
Allah for who he is, the Devil.
Pray for those who remain behind that they might find a way to safety.
Around the
world, Christians are under attack, not only in the Muslim world, but from
Hindus and others in India. Also,
they are under continual attack in the name of Separation of Church and State
in the western world, as it becomes actively atheist or pro-devil buddy. Please pray for God’s guidance and
protection for all persecuted Christians and those around them.
Education
Aaron is in
need of God’s guidance to see what he needs to do to fulfill his potential and
live his life in a manner which will bring true happiness to him.
Thomas Dabney is attending Delta
State University in Cleveland, Mississippi, to finish his Bachelor’s Degree. Please pray for Thomas to focus on
education and do his very best at school.
Various
Special Requests
This is a horrible time for the people of India, Christians in particular;
they are having problems with Hunger, Bank Closings, Transportation and Schools
not functioning. Pray for the
Leaders and Members of our Church in Eluru Andhra Pradesh. Pray their basic
needs will be met and God will be close to them in this time of need.
We ask that
you pray, God that the Holy Ghost might give you insight into how you might
make the lives of your friends and family better. Remember helping others is not just those who you don’t
know!
Thanksgiving

the hospital. He is now okay and home.
Please join Ryatt’s family, in particular his parents Tallon and Ashlei,
in giving thanks for his good progress!
