“But know that the
Lord has set the godly man for Himself; the Lord hears when I call to Him.”
Dear
Saints,
King David wrote in Psalm 4
that the Lord has set apart the godly man for
Himself. He created you and I to be His - to be in a relationship with Him.
Incredible! He did not set us apart primarily for a task or mission, even
though He gave us that. He wants you to know Him personally and to be satisfied
with Him, and then for the mission to flow from the relationship. Don’t neglect
your relationship! You are precious! Here are some things He has done recently
as we have lived set apart for Christ! Thank you for praying!
UGA Outreach Rich and Mary Suplita
(photo above) invited me to join them to speak with University of Georgia
students about new life in Christ. There was a pro-life group they knew on the
campus that day, so there were many wonderful opportunities to share the good
news and to love students who were disturbed by the pro-life message and
banners.

Prayer & Praise
1. Atlanta House Church Pray for more
opportunities during the holidays for each of us to build relationships with
unbelievers and share Christ with them. Pray for the future of the twins Grace
& Ward are fostering and hoping to adopt. Pray for God’s will to be done
and for grace and peace to abound whatever happens.
2. St. Pete Church Pray
for their meetings to be fresh & edifying because each member is daily
living by faith in Christ, hearing from Him through His word and applying it to
their lives, loving others, and reaching unbelievers. Pray for the Trunks and
Shores to lead the church well by being examples in their love for the Lord
Jesus and people, including unbelievers they know.
3. Virginia Church Plant Pray
for them to grow in closer as His church. Pray for David & Stephanie’s
outreach to Chris & Lewis, guys David met playing basketball, and for Becky
and Stacy, Stephanie’s new friends from the park.
4. UGA Students Please
pray for these students we shared Christ with - Rachael, MC, Samuel, and Raven
to come to Him. Pray for Rich and Mary Katherine as the minister to students in
their home and on the campus. Pray for the Spirit of God to convict of sin and
reveal God’s love.
Thank
you for supporting us and for interceding in prayer!
