Together let’s offer praise and thanks for –
· Our God’s magnificence: His omnipotence, omnipresence, love, sovereignty, the peace, and joy only He can give
· The successful start of two new Good News Clubs® last week
· Completion and mailing of the chapter newsletter last week
Please pray with us for –
· The Good News Clubs taking place this week at Elwood, Morris Grade School, Pioneer Path, Saratoga, and Zoom
· The room use applications made to Coal City and JeNeir in Momence
· The March 30 Easter egg hunt – promotion is happening, plans have been made, volunteers are lined up – pray for the Lord’s working in the hearts and lives of those who attend and pray for sunny and warm weather for the day
· The pastor and church in New Lenox who has requested information about our summer missionary training – it would be our desire to see several students from his church attend our June school and work with us this summer
· The hearts and lives of the children we work with week after week – they would be open to the Lord
· Our March finances – ask the Lord to faithfully provide all we need to do this important work; if you would wish to partner with us, simply find the “Donate” app across the top of every web page at www.cef3rivers.com
· Steve and Mike, who have been asked to do some training of a summer camp staff on May 29 – we had a good Zoom meeting several days ago with the camp director
· CEF workers and volunteers in war-torn areas of our world – their safety, effectiveness, and protection
· The local churches in our chapter area and their leadership – may they each see the value and importance of ministry to kids
· We, His Body, might have an ever-growing sense of our Lord’s sovereignty and peace – let’s always remember, God is in control
· Good News Clubs meeting in schools throughout our state
Thank you for taking time to go before our mighty God, speaking to Him on behalf of the children who are precious in His sight. Blessings, Mike – Hebrews 12:1 – 3
