Join us in praying for our church and our mission partners this month! We encourage all our Community Groups and Discipleship Groups to set some extra time aside at one meeting this month to pray.
Pray for our church:
- Pray through a portion of our church covenant
- Ask that God would enable us to embody this portion of our church covenant: We will protect the unity of our church by loving other members, by refusing to gossip and by following church leadership.
- Pray for our leaders
- For one of our staff members - Joey Nay (Student Pastor)
- For one of our lay elders - Brian Valentine
- For one of our deacons - Rashaun Ellison (IT)
- Pray for The Jeremiah 29 Campaign
- Praise God for the unanimous approval from the Johns Creek City Council for our Special Use Permit and pray the Lord continues to supply $600,000 to reach our $6M goal for the campaign.
- Pray for our church to grow in our faithfulness in evangelism
Pray for our mission partners:
North American Mission Board
Hurricane Melissa became a catastrophic Category 5 storm, threatening Jamaica, Cuba, and Haiti with destructive winds, flooding, and landslides. Some areas could see up to 40 inches of rain, creating the potential for a severe humanitarian crisis across the region. Praise God that local churches in Cuba received fifty generators weeks before the storm's arrival. Trained disaster relief volunteers were also on standby ready to deploy to Jamaica and other islands when conditions allowed safe travels. God is good!
King's Hill Church
As they look to finalize the purchase of a new building, they are also preparing to sell the Equip Center. Pray that the Lord would provide the right buyer at the right time!
International Mission Board
Pray for the persecuted church. Specifically, pray for believers around the world who experience persecution and are told not to follow God or share His good news. Pray for them to continue to speak His Word “with all boldness” (Acts 4:29). Ask God to use their witness to draw many to Himself.
IMB MISSIONARIES "DANIEL" AND "RACHEL"
Pray for the continued impact of the team CFC sent to encourage and work alongside Daniel, Rachel, and their team. Pray specifically that the team in North Africa would remain encouraged in the Lord, and that CFC's team being there would have opened the door to Gospel conversations that the team in North Africa can follow up on.
Mully Children's Family
Pray for MCF's Malindi campus as they are currently at capacity. Many of the women are sharing a bed. MCF needs more dorms and classrooms to accommodate and rescue more young women. Pray specifically that the heart of the adjoining property owner to our campus would soften, and they would be open to selling their property to MCF for this needed expansion.
Promise 686
Please continue to pray for Ms. Rachel and the staff/volunteers at the Foster Care Support Foundation as they sort through donations and prepare Christmas gifts for those in need.
Wycliffe Bible Translators
Praise the Lord that the entire New Testament is now available in one of the languages represented by the Older Trees Cluster! Pray for insight and clear thinking for the translation teams as they work to translate portions of Joshua, 1 Samuel, Psalms, and Genesis.
North Fulton Community Charities
NFCC has programs in place to clothe over 800 families a month. What a blessing God has given them to have the means to do this!
A Beacon of Hope
With their new building, ABOH has grown almost 4 times larger compared to their previous facility. Please be in prayer as they hire more staff in the coming months.
CAMP LIGHTHOUSE
Camp Lighthouse will be hosting a moms and kids retreat for one of their Atlanta partners on Friday, November 21st to Sunday, November 23rd to kick off Thanksgiving break. Camp staff will take the kids for most of the day Saturday to give the moms some time to themselves and to enjoy camp. Please pray for the success of this trip and for God to move in the lives of the people that attend.
