Again, I am thanking you for your prayers for the last
couple weeks. I sensed much grace as I
was in various ministry situations.
I have just three requests for you at this point. Please join me in praying for…
February 13th. This is the first day of a 40 day prayer emphasis leading up
to Palm Sunday. Each year Waymakers does
a prayer emphasis called “Seek God for the City.” This is an excellent prayer tool for
individuals, families, and cities. Many
thousands of people across the nation are using this tool. You can find out more information at...
http://www.waymakers.org.
Also, this year, we here in Clark County, WA are following
the same dates but using a guide we wrote specifically for Clark County. Over 4,000 people will be using this guide
called “Praying Like Paul… for Clark County”.
You can see more information about this here. We are having an Evening of Prayer for Clark
County on February 13th to start together.
Please pray that these tools would be translated into many effective prayers!
Prayer Far Away
The Abide Team in Columbia. Jody Mayhew and Calvn and Julie Tadema have been in South America (Colombia) teaching local churches and local church pastors. They brought another Abide School to the area and also Marriage Rx, a ministry that focuses on teaching couples about incarnational marriage, how marriage is to reflect the nature and character of God. The Mayhews and Tademas have just released a book titled, Marriage Rx - Prescription for a radical marriage taken from these teachings.
Please pray that the material that has been taught will continue to influence the church in the area. Several attendees said they intended to plant churches based on the concepts of sonship and covenant that the team taught.
Prayer for Comfort
Finally, please pray for Sally Palmer (and the rest of
the Palmer family) as she adjusts to life after the death of her husband
Richard. Dick Palmer was a major
influence in IRM. He was a full-time
volunteer for many years and served on the board till 2 years ago. He received his “crown of righteousness” on
January 14th. He lived well, loved well,
and died well. He passed peacefully at
his home outside of Dallas, TX with his family nearby. Please pray for all those affected by his
departure.
