Welcome to The Pulse! Please take a minute to check out what's happening at Church of the Apostles.
|
Please join your church in praying for the following requests for the life and mission of the church:
+ Pray for our neighbors, that some would be open to coming to church on Christmas Eve, and to hearing about Christ's coming into the world to save us.
+ Pray for our children as they portray Jesus' birth in the Christmas Pageant this Sunday, that God would speak the message of God's love for the world, sending his Son to rescue us from sin and death, and give us new life.
+ Pray for those who are homeless during below-freezing nights, that they could find shelter, and see God's care and love for them.
