Pray for the healthy growth of the congregation and that it be led by the Holy Spirit. Pray that God will give our visionary lead team strength. Pray that God will provide for our congregation’s needs.
My mother, Pam, was recently diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. Pray for wisdom and strength for us, and that we can pace ourselves. Pray that I will continue spending time with God, most importantly, and that my wife, kids, and I will stay healthy. Pray for healing over my mom. We believe He can do it.
Pray for my mother, Jill, who broke her neck and is struggling to adjust to assisted living. Pray that her depression will lift and that she will enjoy life again. Pray for my female jail ministry, where I serve weekly. Pray that the Holy Spirit will move powerfully through me and that more women will be born again.
Pray that the Lord will send the right person to lead worship in our church. May God prepare his heart and bring him at the perfect time—someone who has humility and a genuine passion for praising Him. On May 3, we began our worship services. Pray that God will continue to guide us in every step. May His presence be evident, may He open doors, strengthen the team, and help us grow spiritually as a congregation. Pray that my marriage reflects God’s will. May He give us wisdom, unity, patience, and genuine love, so that our relationship becomes a living testimony of His grace. Pray that my children will never stop seeking Christ. May the Lord guard their hearts, draw them closer to Him each day, and shape them into men and women who love and serve God with conviction.
Pray for some of my family members. One is battling discouragement and another is grieving and not working through it well. Thank you.
We launched our church on Easter, April 5. Pray we will continue to get all the pieces together, that God will draw people to come, that there will be confessions of faith and rededications, and that God will be glorified. Thank you!
Pray that we will find the right fit for an administrative assistant, as our current one is retiring. Pray also for the Lord’s provisions for our church plant. Pray we will thrive in the abundance of opportunities for community engagement before us. Pray that we’d be laser-focused on proclaiming the gospel and making disciples.
Pray for my wife. She is under a lot of stress. She feels emotionally and physically exhausted. Pray God will restore and renew her.
Our church is seeking a sublease partner to share our space and to help ease financial expenses. We also appreciate your prayers that new members will join our church, so our church community will grow.
Pray that I will be able to faithfully communicate the Lord’s Word and that the inmates will respond to Him. Pray that the Holy Spirit will work mightily behind prison walls.
We had been praying for a long time for a building for our church plant. The Lord has provided a new building, and we are seeing growth in attendance. But the building has some structural issues. Some of the ceiling beams are bowing and need repair. Pray we can fix this issue and afford the cost of the fix.
Pray the gospel will advance in the U.S. Army. Pray for my family as they continue to sacrifice in support of my ministry. Pray God will give me strength and wisdom that I may serve Him and lead Soldiers to Christ.
Thank you for your prayers and encouragement. Recently, a missions team of students from northwest Arkansas came here. Pray that the spiritual conversations, community blessings, and the encouragement they gave other believers in the community will take root, and that we at The Bridge will have a front row seat to see the harvest. Our community is 51.2% unchurched, and we need more workers in the mission field. Pray that God would raise up the next generation of workers, regardless of their age and physical ability, to go into the community and to share the gospel and to help people step into a brand new life with Jesus Christ. Also, pray for me as I lead a team here in our association whose goal is to see church renewal. Within our association of churches, many are plateauing, declining, or dying. Pray that we can listen deeply to understand their history so that we can lead faithfully as we walk with them, so they can become healthy once again, loving their neighbors well, and making an eternal impact on their community. Also, pray for my wife, Christian, as she works a full-time job and then comes home to work alongside me as we minister to and love our community. Again, thank you so much for your prayers and encouragement.
We launched “Who’s Your One?” on March 15. We hope to see God answer those prayers and save souls. Pray for the salvation of our daughter. Pray that God will open up a new meeting space we can afford and grow into as a church body. Ask God to raise up more leaders and servants whom we can empower and equip.
