Prayer

Praise that the Lord has provided such wonderful relationships and strategic opportunities for the Presbyterian Church in America to serve those in government with the gospel.
Pray that the Lord would guide and direct this emerging global work as churches and missions consider how they might interact as friends to those in government.
The Lord continually allows new relationships to develop for Chuck and Debby with those in the Washington government community. Pray that their Christ will transform the hearts of their new friends and draw them to saving relationship with Him.
