j2theperson – There’s a guy who is, wrongly, accusing our church of gross financial mismanagement if not outright illegality.

Please pray he does not cause serious damage to our congregation, that people will recognise him for what he is, and that we will come out stronger for having gone through this.
Captain Kevin – Please pray for my oldest daughter. She is separated from her husband. This is probably the 3rd time in the 3 years they’ve been married. I’m not sure who is more at fault or if there is any abuse, so I just pray for God’s will. They are believers, I think.

The firefighters were quite amazing to watch as they worked in the black of night – all you could see in the dark was an orange glow with the intense lights that were mounted on their helmets, looking like alien beings scurrying around in front of the fire’s advance – while many trees are gone, none of us lost a building, not even a shed
