The Weekend Ahead: Evangelism, Planning, and Praising

It’s shaping up to be a pretty busy weekend – we would certainly appreciate your prayers!

This evening, people will be preparing for their next visit to the graveyard with the family, and they will be going to bow before shrines built to honour dead relatives.  Many believe that children who have died will return tonight, and they want to help them on their journey.  Adults are believed to return tomorrow night.

During the time of twilight we’re planning to be out with other believers, sharing the Gospel.  Please do pray for us as we seek to show love and compassion to people who need to know of God’s salvation.  Both children and adults from the church will be helping with this event.

Tomorrow I’ll be going to a meeting of Christian leaders from related churches in the area.  We’ll be discussing how we can work together to strengthen the church and reach out in the year ahead.

We have a tradition that the first Sunday of the Month is a special service of celebration.  I really hope I’ll be able to play keyboard on Sunday. 🙂 Because of other activities and studies, it hasn’t been a common thing this past year.  But do pray that God would give us unity and love and we worship Him on Sunday.

Frankly, my health this past week has been pretty bad.  I’m likely still recovering from our trip to the retreat we went to last week.  So I am hoping for strength and energy to make it through all these events – and hopefully be used of God in some small way.

I need to go and continue preparing for tonight.  Thanks for your prayers!
