October Sermon Series: Pastor Scott is working on a sermon series for October about FEAR. He is asking for your help. According to a recent survey almost 7 in 10 pastors sense that their congregations are more fearful now than in the past. If there is a fear that keeps you up at night, please share that with him. You can leave a note in his mailbox at the CRC or Grace. We hope to address some of the most common fears with God's Word in October.

 

Prayers for God’s People:

  • Please pray for Rob Gruenewald who will undergo foot surgery Friday in Mitchell.

  • Please pray for Mary Lou Kredit as she recovers from a fall in which she broke several ribs. She is recovering in the Armour hospital.

  • Please continue to pray for those in our church family dealing with health issues: Lloyd Olivier, Dylan Wickstrom, Joyce Brink, Wilma VandenHoek, Darrell VandenHoek, and Birdie Schoon. Please continue to pray for our church family members and their family members fighting cancer: Chad Wentland.

  • Please pray for families in our church as they care for loved ones in need on a daily basis, as well as for the health of our church family members, especially those most vulnerable in the nursing home and Leisure Living.

  • Luke 15 Prayer List: Aaron, Elias, Mike, Dave.
