Prayer List 10.18-10.25


Keep in mind this week the words which Tim has brought us. Pray for guidance not only for yourself but also for the group. It is our prayer that you will discern that calling that the Lord has for you.


"God is calling for a prophetic community to emerge, drawn from the nations of the world, that is characterized by uncommon devotion to the compassion and peace of God revealed in Jesus Christ. Through divine grace and wisdom, this faith community has been given abundant gifts, resources, and opportunities to equip it to become such a people. Chief among these is the power of community in Christ expressed locally in distinctive fashions while upholding a unity of vision, foundational beliefs, and mission throughout the world.

There are many issues that could easily consume the time and energy of the church. However, the challenge before a prophetic people is to discern and pursue what matters most for the journey ahead."

Doctrine and Covenants 163: 11a-b
