Invitation to Prayer: Wednesday

Faces of Children is an ecumenical prayer ministry under the auspices of First Presbyterian Church of Midland, Texas. Our mission is to initiate ministries of prayer for children in churches, communities, and neighborhoods. In doing so, we seek to provide an opportunity for people of God to join together, learn about children and their needs throughout the world, and celebrate Christ's love (especially as it relates to children).

Prayer of Expectation


"Lord Jesus, we want to be people who watch,
who expect your coming;
we want to grow in you,
to be among those in whom the power of your hope is at work and
who confess you in word and in deed.
Awaken us, Lord.
Do not let us sleep.
You speak your powerful word always anew throughout the ages.
Give us ears to hear!
Amen.

A message from Chris Laufer, Coordinator, Faces of Children

Greetings, Faces of Children Intercessor,

The Midland Faces of Children prayer group will meet this coming Wednesday, December 4, 2013, at 11:30 a.m. in the Bride’s room at First Presbyterian Church-Midland, as we lift in prayer the children of our hearts and communities. Pleasae join us for prayer and, afterwards, for lunch ($5) and fellowship.


If you have prayer concerns or celebrations about children, those who care for them, those who have authority over them, or those who harm them (the really hard prayers to say sometimes), please send them to me at at claufer@facesofchildren.net, or give me a call.

Grace and Peace,

Chris
