Beginnings

So far we have not been utilizing this blog as much as we should have been. This is all about to change. We will begin posting regular prayer request on this blog. Of course for privacy concerns some of the specific details of the request may be kept secret. We would encourage you to pass this blog along to all of your friends and prayer partners. Thanks for all that you do to help support The Journey.

Additional Prayers for this week

We have decided to get a few extra tickets for the Christmas Eve Service at The Orchard. We are hoping that some of our neighbors will go with us and then join us for dinner in our home afterwards. Please pray that they would be willing to join us that evening and that this would be a wonderful time of getting to know them while also sharing the wonderful story of Christmas.
