Praises

1.Isaiah 9:6 – “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, prince of peace.”

2. Everything went very smoothly with our Christmas program; and the truth of the gospel was proclaimed through music and narration.

3. Alex was able to get his braces on because of a generous gift from friends.

4. We were able to time after Christmas with Teresa’s sister, her family, and Teresa’s parents.

5. Our church is very close to reaching our budget numbers for the year (in giving)!

Requests

1.That once I receive my rough draft back this month, I will be able to make a plan to write and complete the final draft on time.

2. A group of men will be meeting on Wednesday mornings, at 6 AM, beginning January 9th, for 3 months, to discuss a book and share our lives together. Pray we will grow in Christ.

3. We continue to work through our constitution revision as a church. There are many details to consider and it is not proving to be an easy process. Please pray as we continue this month, that we will have God’s guidance and be wise in our conclusions.

4. Our outreach basketball league begins this month (games on Tuesday nights). All the guys on my team are non-believers. Please pray that God would see fit to use me in sharing the gospel with them this year.
