The Power of Prayer-Updated 2-13-12

2012-01-23T09:29:00.007-05:00

An on-going list of much needed prayers!
E-mail me at gbctiffin@att.net if you have a prayer request you would like added to this list!

Prayer for DJ Kissell- Keep those prayers coming for DJ, as he continues to battle Leukemia at just 16 years old. DJ has been very sick and weak recently, so please continue to pray for God's healing touch upon him. Ask that God would give DJ strength that only He can give.

Prayer for Pam Biller- Pray that God will quicken the healing process of Pam's collarbone. It is quite hard to go through such a prolonged healing process without becoming discouraged and worn out. Pam did say that according to her most recent Dr.'s visit, he told her that it finally looked like some bone was starting to re-grow, however Pam is still in a lot of pain and discomfort.

Prayer for Brad Distel- Brad is still facing issues, most likely related to his battle with Lupus. He has been experiencing fevers and soreness again. Also, the Dr.'s found out that he has inflammation on the heart tissues. Continue to pray for answers and the correct treatment so that Brad can resume work and his normal lifestyle.

Prayer for Gene Smith- Gene is a SCBO church planter and sends a monthly report and would like us to pray for a few requests. First, please pray that God would provide a place where he can lead a Bible study that would be ideal for worshiping without being interrupted or distracted. Also, pray that Gene would be able to find a house to rent in the Castalia area.

During our business meeting on Wed. January 11th, we voted to begin an account on TrueLife.org- a website that offers many tools of ministry and videos that will answer many of life's tough questions. It also gives people the opportunity to locate our church and view our profile, which displays various information about Grace.

2012

2012-01-04T10:01:00.001-05:00

Hello & Happy 2012! I sure hope you all had an enjoyable Christmas with your family and a very Happy New Year! I had the opportunity to attend an outstanding conference last week called: Indianapolis Christian Conference, or IndyCC for short. I was expecting to be blown away, and I indeed can tell you that I experienced God's love in a new way! I went with seven other friends, who are affiliated with Heidelberg. Long story short, after listening to numerous speakers, and worshiping with 2,000 other students, I have arrived home with a new outlook on my walk with God. The theme of the conference was, "God is greater than". I was reminded that God is greater than EVERYTHING! My fears, my future, my health, my family. He can and will use any circumstance to draw us closer to Him. I am encouraged and hope to serve God with the best I can, especially in this new year. I am pleased to tell you that SEVEN students committed their lives to God this past week. I ask that you pray for them, and that they genuinely asked God into their lives. Also pray that they can find a church back home, and that they are blessed with support through family and friends. Before I close, I also wanted to share with you that one of the days during IndyCC was dedicated to doing "outreach" work in the less fortunate part of the community. I was able to pray for a woman whose husband is crippled. She shared with me that she is unable to attend church, but likes to watch it on television. Please pray for her, and her family-she does have children. Ask that God would protect and bless her family, and if it's His will, that He would heal her husband. Thanks so much for taking the time to read this blog, I hope you were encouraged! God Bless!
