September Update

We have been very busy so far this September.  On Sunday nights, from 5:00-5:50, the students have enjoyed their weekly team competitions with Pastor Jeremiah. In the second hour, we have been working hard to fill all of our ministry needs. In addition, the students have been playing hard at rec after eating a great supper each week!  

Mission Projects:

We made "Happy Fall" door hangers for the shut in baskets and the James Place Residents.

For the high school, the students submitted prayers for the teachers about trusting in God throughout the school year. The church gave them a pom with our website and "Go Raiders!" on the handle.

September Prayer for the high school:

Dear God,

We pray that the teachers and staff of West Laurens High School will look to You for strength and guidance this month. May You keep them focused on their goals and help them to fulfill each one. Please help the teachers and staff sustain their hope, purpose, and vision for the year. We pray they will not get mad at the students and forget what they are doing and why they are there. Please help them remember every day that they are at the school for a reason. Help them to do as You have commanded and not to stray from Your path. We pray they will remember that the Lord always satisfies their needs.

In Jesus’ Name,

Amen

September Verse:

The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land

and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden,

like a spring whose waters never fail.

Isaiah 58:11

We are currently working on our October missions for the shut in baskets and teachers.

In addition, we made a visit to James Place on September 10th.  J.O.Y. Club played a couple of songs on the bells.  Then, we played "Name That Tune" and sang all of the hymns from the game. The students did a great job interacting with the residents and passing out prizes and door hangers.
