Pray that the Lord will lead us in planting new churches and starting new works/ministries! Pray that we will seek His guidance as we discover possible mission partnerships (Cuba, Vietnam, Brazil, etc.). Pray for the many mission trips (both international and within the US) that individuals from our churches will be participating in over the next few months.
