Heavenly Father, Please help us to be mindful of the needs of others during this holiday season, and to pray for Your will to be done as we go forward with new leadership in our country. Grant us direction and wisdom. I pray for all people suffering around the globe...for victims of war, famine, abuse, and hopelessness. Please be with those who have lost their homes and loved ones to tornadoes, fires, and floods, and life's trials. Have mercy on us, Lord, and may the Hope of Christ shine brightly in the midst of the peril in our world.

May the God of our fathers protect and bring them home safe. Thank you Lord for all the answered prayers please be with us and guide us as we begin the process of becoming a church plant. We will give you all the glory.
