Prayer for Week of September 29

Dear God,

We lift up Liz and Doug Searles and their weekly circuit ministry of language classes, bible studies, pulpit supply, and youth and music programs. We ask for travel safety and also for financial and creative resources as Liz and Doug continue serving congregations and communities within Lodz and beyond. May your grace, O Lord, make possible that which seems impossible to us.

"Hope thou in God."   Psalm 42: 5

Prayer for Week of September 22

Gracious and Loving God,
During this time of new beginnings  in the academic year, we lift up those faithful ones who have served you at EST in unsung ways- the security personnel who protect and secure the property, the custodians who maintain the building, the receptionist who welcomes all to the ministry, and all those who serve you in ways often unacknowledged and unnoticed.

"Arise, O Lord! O God, lift up your hand! Do not forget the humble."   Psalm 10:12

Prayer for Week of September 15

We thank you God,
for the relationships you are building between your servants in Poland and the United States. We pray you will continue to grow this work you have begun in us: a work of love and service.

"... Always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy, for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it..." Phillipians 1:4-6

Prayer for the Continued Journey

Lord,
Mold us that we as strangers in a foreign land may stand with those we visit as brothers and sisters in, and as, the living example of Christ.

"Live your life in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that you are standing firm in one spirit, striving side by side with one mind for the faith of the gospel."
Philippians 1:27
