Weekly Prayer Requests, August 2, 2011

Hi NGL prayer partners,

Thanks for your prayers this past week. I am much better this week. God is good!

1. Pray a blessing on those who are giving and the ones putting the clown suits together. This is such a much needed project for the Mardi Gras ministry. Please remember to pray for Abby and Betty Braswell as they oversee this project.

2. Pray for our upcoming NGL Retreat September 23-24th. Pray for the Lord to call forth His "troops" for this important "kick-off" for the coming year!!!!!

A. It is like a "training camp" for football teams.
B. Pray for Roger Lipe as he is putting together our Small Group Questions for Mardi Gras. He is working on Leadership principles from the book of Proverbs. We will try them out at our next Board meeting this month.
C. We are turning our attention now toward the Men's Retreat!!!!!!

3. Sick:

A. Betty Braswell took a hard fall in her bathtub, but it doing much better and she has moved to Springfield, Illinois.
B. Bill Alexander, a member of our NGL Board, had two stints put in and is doing much better.
C. Ron Kuhnert is our main cook. His wife, Joan, is my cousin and she is in the hospital in Carbondale with a viral infection and needs our prayers.

Thanks for your prayers and support,
Love ya's,

Fred

Ephesians 1:6-8 New Living Translation (NLT)
"So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding."
