1. The strengthening of the prayer ministry of the church–That the church would pray with the Lord’s authority and from the position of ascension, and release prayers that bring in and spread the Lord’s kingdom; let us pray for the strengthening of all the prayer meetings in the church

3. Thanksgiving to the Lord for His faithful work among our 5th grade children who are entering middle school next year–Of the 37 children on the prayer list, 28 have believed into the Lord and 16 have been baptized; let us pray for them by name in each hall, praying for their experience of the assurance and joy of salvation, and for the Lord’s further work in those who have not yet been saved or baptized
