Last week, January 7-13, remember to pray for:

• Alpha; pray for this ministry that starts the 14th. Ask God to use invitations to draw new people to this relaxed dinner, presentation and discussion of basic Christianity. Ministry Leaders are Bill Nyberg and Alan Starr.

• Next Step Workshop; pray for Middle School students and their parents as this month they discover why and how we pray by examining the Lord’s Prayer. Parents will be encouraged and equipped as the primary former of faith to take it home and live it out with their children. Ministry Leader is Kelsey Payne.

• UALC Council; pray for our leadership team. Ask God to anoint them and in their meetings (prayer first Tues. of the month, business on the third Tues.) give them a strong sense of His leading. Pray for the Spirit to build a close fellowship as they give of themselves to this crucial task. Chair is Steve Bruns.

• Heart to Honduras Mission Team; pray for the UALC team who will serve in Caliche, Honduras the week of January 20th. The team will play a key role in the plan for Communities of Holistic Impact.

• Ask the Holy Spirit to help us listen to the voice of God in the experiences of our everyday humdrum lives.

“You must learn to call on the Lord. Don’t sit all alone or lie on the couch, shaking your head and letting your thoughts torture you. Don’t worry about how to get out of your situation or brood about your terrible life, how miserable you feel, and what a bad person you are…. Fall on your knees, and raise your hands and eyes toward heaven. Read a psalm. Say the Lord’s Prayer, and tearfully tell God what you need.” -Martin Luther
