“Blind Leading the Blind,” Michael Hermesh (2013)

IN OUR PRAYERS

The prayers of the congregation are with the family of Michael and Christina Grimes, who are grieving the death of Christina's father James M. Carey on August 5, 2026.

Please keep Mary Syke’s mother, Cathy Bean, in your prayers in the coming weeks. Cathy recently underwent triple bypass surgery and is recovering in the hospital. Prayers for a smooth and steady recovery, and renewed strength in the days ahead.

We lift prayers for the start of Compassion Camp on Monday, August 17th. May our children, staff, and volunteers enjoy a safe, happy, and instructive week of faith and fun.

We pray for college students who will soon be returning to school to begin the fall semester, and for all of our school-age children who are enjoying the final weeks of summer. Safe travels to all, and may the upcoming year be fruitful and formative.

We pray for all who are away for rest, refreshment, and relaxation. May traveling mercies accompany you on your journeys!
