Join us in thanks to the Lord for –
· A new volunteer who is very eager to join us in reaching children with the truth of God
· A good start to our Good News Club® at Galloway School – kids there are excited
· A child at Morris Grade School who chose the Lord as Savior – the lead teacher there reports that they have more than 30 children enrolled in that club
Please join us in praying for –
· Good News Clubs meeting this week in Romeoville, Morris, Crest Hill, and Channahon – pray for the hearts of many children who attend; pray also that kids would invite friends to club
· The chapter’s Wednesday afternoon virtual Good News Club – had yet another new child last week
· Clubs in Elwood and Aux Sable – to start in March and after Easter respectively; and possibly another six weeks at Saratoga
· The chapter’s April 8 Easter egg hunt – preparation and plans for it also asking the Lord to give us a dry day because the event will be outdoors
· February’s financial needs – please ask the Lord to provide what we need to meet our monthly budgeted expenses — $9,500 by February 28. If you sense the Lord leading you to share in this ministry, please go to the chapter website (www.cef3rivers.org) and click the “Donate Now” button found on the home page to safely give. Yes, He continues to remain faithful and He may be trusted to supply what we need
· The work of CEF throughout the entire state – clubs are meeting in schools all around Illinois – ask the Lord to bring many kids to Himself
· The chapter staff is looking for God’s choice of at least two summer missionaries willing to be trained at the state training school and then serve alongside the chapter staff for several weeks teaching 5-Day Clubs® — if you know of a young adult who may be interested, please contact us
· Mark Andrews our new director of Camp Good News®
We are sincerely grateful for your faithfulness and your partnership with this vital ministry of reaching children and families for the Lord. Blessings, Mike – Hebrews 12:1 – 3
