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 for Renewal


“Sometimes I wonder who it is that looks out from behind these eyes of mine.
Sometimes I see things so differently that I think there must be two of me in here.
But then I realize, it’s just that one part of me wants to grow more Christlike,
and the other part of me doesn’t want to give up what it would have to give up to do that.
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
Then I can be whole!”

A message from Chris Laufer, Coordinator, Faces of Children

Greetings, Faces of Children Prayer Partner,

The Midland Faces of Children prayer group will meet on Wednesday, February 12, 2014, at 11:30 a.m. in Room 217 at First Presbyterian Church-Midland, as we lift in prayer the children of our hearts and communities. The church is starting an 18-month-long renovation project and we won't have access to the Bride's Room during that time. We will have lunch ($5) and fellowship after our time of prayer. I hope you will be able to join us.

Thank you for praying for the children of our local and global communities. Your prayers matter! Your prayers are instruments of a gracious and generous God who uses them to bring healing and hope to a broken world. Thank you again for your faithfulness in prayer.

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
